At upper levels, it is expected to call it a little differently than "by the book."

Snaq's is right I worked with a young kid a week or so agoa and he had three seconds on the brain, he must have called 8 of them in the first quarter.
both the fans and the coaches quit asking for them then.
And everyone that he called was a three second call by the rules.
our conversation between quarters was, I am not saying you made the wrong calls, I a asking youdid those calls fit the game we had in front of us -
he called a couple more through out the game but they were much more in tune with the game.
