That's not the issue, Brad. I don't think anyone has a problem with those requests. The problem arises when they want a tiemout during a live ball, when they try to become part of the game on the floor. I'm speaking of situations where there's about to be a held ball, or A1 is trapped in the corner, or A2 is being pressured in the BC. In those situations, our focus has to be on the players on the floor, not somebody yelling "TIMEOUT!" behind us.
Those are the situations that concern those of us who don't like the rule. Like I said, make it available to them during dead balls only and it would be fine IMHO.

That would be great. I will keep making the suggestion annually.
Maybe someday it will happen.
