When you call a foul, I am assuming most of you hit the fox 40 with a single blast. What I have noticed and what I have picked up as a habit myself is two short quick blasts for a violation. I recently read in "Smart Basketball Officiating" (book from Referee Magazine) that more than one is "showboating" but I am thinking that a real quick double is pretty common out there meaning either A) it's another way we communicate or B) we're all showboating. And then there are times when you have that loose ball scrum that leads to a held ball. One whistle blast aint gonna get it in my opinion.

Thoughts?
