You have no idea how helpful this board has been to me this past year!

doghead,
Telling White Coach that it was Blue ball may have eased your pain, who knows? Communication is one of our most important tools for game management. White Coach, also, may have asked, as well as, should have known, that he did not request a timeout. Communication is a two-way street.
To underline what Tony said, it would be useful to use the phrase, "...when the timeout request
was recognized", as opposed to
...was granted. That buys us a little more leeway.
