I guess I'm missing something. Please show me where it says to blow your whistle.

8-2
The free throw(s) awarded because of a personal foul shall be attempted by the offended player. If such player must withdraw because of an injury or disqualification, his/her substitute shall attempt the throw(s) unless no substitute is available, in which case any teammate may attempt the throw(s) as selected by the team captain or head coach.

I've never blown the whistle before a FT and also have never seen it done.
