I guess it's not as bad as my partner on Tuesday (MS Boys games) who granted a time-out to the V coach by forming a T with his hands . I was trying to figure out who earned a technical foul. Needless to say, I discreetly reminded him that what he called and signaled were two very different things.

Back when I used to do volleyball in the fall, I'd do this once or twice early in basketball season before I got all the signals changed in my mind.
