I'm calling Bull**** on this. I have been taught to keep the game moving. I'm not of the mind set of get-in- get-out concept.

The sooner the ball is back into play; the sooner the coach can start back coaching. So, to say that Veteran officials are of this mind set really displays your officiating I.Q.
Rook,
You can call what you like, but I can tell you that there ARE veteran officials who DO have the mind set of get-in-and-get-out quick mentality. I did NOT say that ALL veteran officials are of this mindset, BUT there are those who ARE. I know one official in particular who would proudly announce "44 minutes" or "52 minutes" as soon as I walked into the gym. He was also referring to the length of time that it took to complete the previous game. Whenever he describes a game, it always starts with the length of the game. It is veteran officials such as this who are much more likely to put the ball in play while a player is lying on the floor, before his partner is ready, etc.

Once again, please do NOT jump to the false conclusion that just because some officials are veteran officials and some veteran officials have the mind set of get-in-and-get-out quick mentality that ALL veteran officials have that mind set. Some of US clearly do NOT have that mindset.
