This is a really poor choice of words and is frankly uncalled for. I've had a few deaf players in varsity games - should they not be allowed to play because they can't hear the whistle? There's a school for the deaf that has a team here - a good team. Half the time I can't hear a coach yell timeout and I can hear just fine. There are reasons why the officials might grant the timeout, even late. We don't know what happened, and you're just speculating.
