While I am not completely innocent of shaving the clock in the past (hopeless situation, no point prolonging an agony, under 2 minutes left, leading team due up and such), last year I started using a count-down timer in my pocket & this year I have started hanging it on the backstop for both coaches to see.

I've had a few of those "hopeless" situations this year, too, and when given the complete picture, coaches agree to end it.
