Camron- you have done a great job in this thread and are exactly right. A timing mistake, by definition, is ANY amount of time that runs off of the clock after the whistle sounds.

I get asked all the time what seperates a good official from a great official, and clock management at the end of a quarter is absolutely one of the top things on that list. If you want to make it as a "big time" official, you better be able to look at a running clock and recognize the tenth of a second it was on when the whistle blew.
