Wow, that is tough. That would almost make me want to take an extra second or two to get a visual as well or some confirmation before whisling a TO. But this could cause the Team an additional two seconds off the clock that they shouldnt lose either.

Hum, is that really the intent of the rule or is it really intending to force Team B to take his TO that he requested even if he shouldnt be allowed one? Rather than say the official inadvert on the whistle, Team B did not request a TO, throw in at POI....... What is the intent....
