			"My time" is not annoying to me because to me it means that the umpire is calling time without the request from either the offense or the defense. I am not saying that I call it that way, but it is reasonable to eliminate the need to explain which team is being charged a conference. I'd file it under preventive umpiring. Is it necessary? No.
