While reading all the old blogs, I noticed some one whining about
the marker calling out the stall too loudly, & some others seemed to
side with them, Like there was no valid reason to shout it out, but it
was just rude behavior etc.
This is a totally valid defensive technique, and completely
within the SOTG. By allowing everyone to accurately know the count,
it tells the O that, they're running low on time and something needs
to happen, but most importantly it tells the D when to step up
the D to the next level, for example...... at 5 you clamp down....at
6 you go "Skin Tight"... at 7 you move to "Stink on Shit"....
...........at 8 you step up to" In their Shorts"..........& finally at
9 it is "Full Tattoo" level.........Any comments?....Leaker

Pretty much agree, Steve. As long as the defender isn't trying to
deafen the thrower, then why not?

   Hi Mark, thanks for responding. The fact that it would also be effective in aiding the throwers team mates to accurately gauge
 whether  the release was clearly before the T of ten, so they can influence him to make the correct call if it was close. It is also helpful
to any observers, who as a last resort, must rule, to make an accurate call.........too!
It is going to be quite loud, to be effective, so  changing the wording to "loud enough for all players to hear is permitted"  to keep all the whiners quiet,might be a good idea?.................Just an idea from an original Condor............SPREAD THE JAM...........Thanks....Leak
