Looked at partners and they didn't have any information, kind of gave the beats me look. (I usually look up at the clock as soon as the throwin is complete to make sure its been started, but in this case I had too much action to watch) I count every morning as my instant coffee is heating in the microwave, but during a game I wouldn't be surprised that I speed up. Any suggestions on how to get this right? I don't want to be slow with my count and not reward the defense, and of course I don't want to be fast and penalize the offense. This is the first time this has happened. Later review of game showed the clock ticked off 9 seconds when I called 10, so I was wrong. The clock was started properly.
I should introduce him to my buddy, Bionicref, who has had a metronome implanted in his upper hip, right next to the socket for the PTS transmitter. He never has this problem!!! When the timer gets to 10, he gets a small shock to prompt him to blow the whistle. Still having a problem synching the hydraulic arm-swing mechanism.
