I wonder how many, of those18 times, an official may have whispered some words of sound advice into his helmet ear hole suggesting he not be so dramatic? I wonder if that same official might have whispered such advice into his ear hole earlier in this very contest?

If I bother to whisper advice into an ear hole, and whatever I was whispering about is subsequently ignored or repeated, most likely there will be a flag. Sometimes a brief comment or even just a stern look can send a smart player a teaching moment. Players not so smart may require additional measures.
