Sorry, I am not going by your little whistle, I am going to go by when we last changed the arrow and probably will give you the time on the clock without looking. Again it looks stupid constantly digging in your pocket every time there is a held ball or when you change the arrow. It is a crutch. Peace

Now if I'm doing a 5A state game then I'm probably confident the table will do a great job. In this scenario no one in the gym cares to watch me play around with my pockets and look silly. There I'll just switch gum to a different side of my mouth so no one notices. I'll do that at any level because I've always found it tacky to turn around and look at the table if I space out and forget which way we're going. These two examples have worked for me. |

You can do what you want and this is not about the ability of the table. You should be in-tune to the game that you do not need some crutch that you will screw up and you still have to know which way you set the arrow.
Again, you assume that with everything going on you are going to always change the "whistle" to the right pocket. Peace

So, am I to understand that y'all absolutely favor the whistle in your pocket or your own recollection over the say-so of the person who is responsible for this by rule and is (hopefully) keeping up with it in the book as well as switching the arrow when appropriate? I try to observe that this is correctly done, but that's the end of it.

Hence the word "absolutely." You know that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about when a competent grown person that you've seen at the table a hundred times tells you it's B's ball and you remember giving the ball to B last time which was 6 minutes ago, you will go with your recollection over what (s)he has written in the book?

All I am saying is be into the game. Because if you use it as a default and you make a mistake, how do you solve the problem? I do not know about you, but many held balls are not things I am not paying attention to other things. And also think it looks bad to constantly be fidgeting with your pockets as if you do not have to pay attention to players or the benches during this time frame. Or even better yet, someone thinks something else about you going into your pockets all the time. Peace

In a youth/rec game, there is rarely even an arrow there so in that case I use a whistle in my pocket. I don't think this is an issue in rec/youth ball. Last edited by HokiePaul; Mon Nov 30, 2015 at 10:41am. |

Yep yep. 100000% agree. Just as it's not my job to count number of quarters for a player. We have a ton of crap to worry about. Stop looking for other things to make our responsibility. I wish I had a cool signature |
