And if you don't use the stop sign to tell coaches and players what to do, you're not doing it right? Balderdash.

I can make myself clear in other ways. The stop sign is not the be-all and end-all that many officials act like.

I’m not sure what you have against “camp speak”, that stuff has become teaching material for a reason.

I agree that the stop sign is not an end-all-be-all, but it’s pretty effective at communicating when we are done.

What techniques do you use instead? I’d appreciate as much detail as you can give.
