My comments to that -
1) Coaches can't call timeouts 2) Duh 3) If any referee of ours disregarded the rules like you seem to promote doing, he or she would be fired represent that ![]()

Anyone who thinks that this is an error needs to actually read the rule book and see that the what the official does when there is a timeout request is called granting a timeout. Apparently some people have imagined the word calling replacing granting and therefore consider it incorrect to say that a player called timeout when in actuality they were the one who didn't know the proper term. |

Look, by rule, coaches and players can only request a timeout. The only people who can actually "call" anything have whistles; that's where the semantics come from.
Like I alluded to before, though, it's not a big deal except to some.
