I guess because I played IM & rec ball, I got used to officials holding the whistle in their hands and hesitating to bring it to their mouths to whistle a call. That irked me. I cannot imagine not having a lanyard or smitty. But that is my choice. I don't chew gum during games, either, but many do. If it works for them, I've got no problems. There are bigger fish to fry.
