I suppose I just didn't see the point to do it otherwise. Sure, it's a violation, but missing everything on the first free throw (or second of three) results the same as simply missing the shot (double violations notwithstanding).
For everyone, free-throw shooter misses everything, but he has at least one more coming. Tweet or no tweet?

I don't sound my whistle, but I do pull out my smartphone and login into twitter.
