Actually I do not get your drift. My only point was that they might have to use a different tool that works for them. We are not robots out there are more than one way to skin a cat if you get my drift.

I also do not fit the description of either officials I described and I hardly ever use my whistle in these kinds of situations and nothing has ever happened that got completely out of hand in one of my games. Also a good official knows when to use different tools for all kinds of situations.

Peace
