The inadvertent whistle

Typical SEC fan:  Man, it’s hard to imagine conference refs being any worse at their jobs than they are now.

Ron Foxcroft, “the most trusted name in North America when it comes to whistles”:  Hold my beer.

    As a youth and HS soccer referee, I’ve tried one.

    Electronic whistles are the biggest pieces of crap out there. They’re terrible, the pitch is inconsistent, and quite frankly, I ended up trying to put the thing to my lips instead of pressing the button out of force of habit. I won’t use it.

    Seems to me that a button could be pushed inadvertently easier that blowing a whistle by accident.
