I expect that Tee works in an area where there is a mutual understanding among coaches and umpires: coaches don't take too long, and umpire don't break up conferences.

Elsewhere, that understanding does not exist. Coaches stall, try to talk to umpires, or otherwise prolong conferences. Then it's our duty to move the game along.

For the record, my routine is a lot like Dave Hensley's. I might take a few seconds longer putting my plate brush away...
