Ahhh, the wonders of the anonymous internet, and the safety of being unpleasant to strangers.
Does announcing that the loud noise was a horn make me proactive rather than reactive? How so? I would love to know your views on this, if you can communicate them without the nasty little comments.

Berkut,
From my previous post.....As JRut pointed out, the purpose of the communication is to get the "still-huddled" team ready for play by the 2nd horn. I will give the teams a quick instruction as well (whose ball, run of baseline, direction of throw-in, etc. along with number of time outs left if 2 or less). These instructions are much more useful for the sub-varsity games, but there are times when a sub has entered the game during the time out and knowing where the ball is to be put in play is helpful -- and gets the teams to the right spot quicker.
I don't simply use the first horn to say first horn white. I use it when the team is still in its huddle. I also communicate this additional information.
