Just curious - have you had situations where the scoreboard was incorrect on the number remaining and, for instance, a coach thought he had one left but didn't? What would you do? I know the proper thing is to check so that doesn't happen, but has it ever happened to you?
Also, is there a reason you inform the coach of timeouts left at the end of the second half as you state above?

We just had a case in Eastern Mass where a team was charged with a technical for taking a timeout it didn't have when in fact (video review, after the fact) the team had 2(!) left. It had a slightly crazy etiology. The home team was the visitors for this particular game - and the scorers were not seated next to each other. The 'visitor's' scorekeeper was the home scorer - and quite possibly the officials were looking at the wrong scorer when reporting things. Confusion ensued . . .
