You gave him the control to decide your fate. Right, wrong, or indifferent, it doesn't matter. You gave the chance to decide your fate to the official and you deserve what you got.

Daggo, that doesn't make sense. If you're about to have a delay penalty and you'd rather take it than the timeout, you still have a right to complain about it being assessed as a 15 yard penalty. The mistake he made was not having a clue how to deal with an official. (And being wrong about the rule -- though I still maintain the correctness of the AR is a little suspect).
