Pet peeve: I HATE THIS. Let the timer use a stopwatch or a smartphone or the counting feature of the clock but without the board display. The game time should be displayed because I use time-outs to check down game status and mentally re-set, and I hate not being able to see the time remaining.

To my joy, this is illegal in NCAAW.

I think there are a couple of football officials in New Orleans who can attest to the risks taken when confronting uniformed police officers during a game, even (especially?) when you're right. I say, note his name and write to the department, your assigner, the school/district, etc after you're safely back at home.
