I doubt this. I say they're far more likely to think, If they're not calling it, I'm going to keep doing it until someone does.

Well that was a POE over 5 years ago. Funny how it has not been since considering that this takes place at least once a game on some level. And as I said, I do not need to call a T to get a player to stop.

None of us need Ts. We call Ts, when the rule applies.

And we also call them based on judgment, just like I do not Ts for things that are considered minor either. The rules also leave it up to the judgment of the officials. If that was not the case in the rules things would be spelled out more clearly. And when they are (like the kid pointing up to the sky in after scoring a TD football game recently) people like to question the judgments like this when we ultimately make that call.
