Re: Time-Out or not

A couple of violations would have cured that quickly or the coach needs to get a clue. I disagree in that I know of no where it allows for an "officials" time-out to allow a player to tie their shoe. Once the ball is alive, you would be incorrect to blow a whistle to allow that, but could delay it coming alive to allow the girl to tie the shoe.
