Good points! Let me take this in another direction. Do we, as officials, all count 3 or 5 or 10 seconds the same? My ten second count might be two or more seconds different than yours. I have evaluated officials whose ten second count was actually 12 and 13 seconds. I try to keep mine right at 10 so as to reward good defensive effort. Others have told me that they dont like making this call if at all possible (similar to the slow 3 second in the key count).
