It is really interesting to me that you'all get so wound up about this issue. If you don't like it that's fine, don't use it. The overwhelming majority of basketball officials have some system of keeping the alternating possession. That should tell you there's a problem. If you want to use your memory, use it. I hope it works great for you.

In 13 years of coaching, I can count on one hand how many AP problems I've had. Thats because there is a device already at the table with the timer and 2 bookkeepers.
An official can just as easily forget to flip the device. I can see it now. 3 man crew. 2 have white, 1 has dark.......
