Answer to those way ahead
When a player from a team that's comfortly ahead late in the game cries about wanting a flag, I just tell them that if I throw a flag I have to stop the clock, and his team is better served with the clock running.
"You want that clock to keep running, right?"
"Yes sir." is the typical conversation.
Obviously that is not a water tight remark, but it's always worked.
