I've used the same whistle all season. I have a bagful of whistles and will likely use the same one until I crack it.

They all called themselves this season. Early in the season I had a girl from a small college complaining on the floor, I had a captain talk to her, they ended up taking her out of the game, On the next whistle, which was an easy call, the girl in question threw her arms at us, complained, started biting the neckline of her jersey, turned sideways with her feet on the chair next to her in a pseudo-fetal position, and threw another hand at us. All this and she was somewhat suprised when I assessed the technical she deserved. The rest of the game was pretty quiet.
