Had one last night where the home team was inbounding the ball under the basket. The home coach is screaming "30 seconds, 30 seconds..." I assume he's alerting his team about how many seconds are on the clock so I ignore him and try to get the ball in play as quickly as possible since the clock's running (girls 9th grade "B" game, running clock). Luckily, my partner glances over to see what the ruckus is and calls the 30-second timeout the coach had been so feverishly asking for. The "A" coach and clock operator at the same time say "Wouldn't 'timeout' have been much easier?"
