I agree with this.

You "can" have MS games or 13U games with flow if you're fortunate. Managing the game can certainly be a challenge, but it can be done.

A game where officials blow the whistle every 5-10 secs is no fun for anyone... but, as has been stated, you can't be lazy and let it all go either.

That's why we get paid the big money!
