And, honestly, you would probably not be "dinged" for not telling coaches the number of timeouts left.

It would be one less thing for me to do during a game. Hell, there's enough going on that I'd be perfectly okay with dropping this as part of my game. But it's what we do, and it's not so bad that I'm going to make a fuss over it.

By the way, unlike the person that posted this thread, I did not bring up the timeouts thing for discussion. But if you really want to go there, then fine. It's what's been taught to us. If you disagree with that, okay. But that's how we do it. Like Billy said, some places do things we disagree with. If you want to write to the assignors and associations about those things then feel free, but it would be nice if you'd back off those of us who are just doing what we're told.

You know... don't hate the player, hate the game.
