A majority of the time I wait until a dead ball but can you call an "offical's time out" whenever you want? I know it can be done if there is a safety issue, but OK just to expalin a call?

The best way to stop the complaining and unsportsman behavior is to access a "T". Shuts everyone up! Give a double T- one for each coach.
