[Ref in PA]

As a matter of courtesy, I attempt to inform a bench when they have used their last time out. Sometimes they are too busy with thier huddle to hear or pay attention to me - that is their problem.

If a coach wants a TO when I know he has none, I have been known to look the other way when granting the TO makes no sense from a coaching stand point (being in possession of a live ball). I have granted a TO also when I felt the coach wanted to "buy it" with a T. It is my feelings most refs are cognizant of the coaches and would attempt to understand what the really coach wants.
