Directly from the NFL rulebook:
Item 4: Unsportsmanlike Conduct. An attempt to call an excess team timeout or to call a second
timeout in the same dead-ball period by Team B in an attempt to “freeze” a kicker, will be considered
unsportsmanlike conduct and will subject the offending team to a 15-yard penalty (See 12-3). This will
apply to field goal or Try attempts.
Note: If an attempt is made to call a timeout in such situations, the officials shall not grant a timeout; instead,
play will continue, and a penalty will be called, with customary enforcement. If a timeout is inadvertently
granted, the penalty shall also be enforced. See 12-3-1-v.

I'm thinking Jason Garrett should throw a chair onto the field, Bobby Knight style.

He should have called his own timeout to bitch at them and let them think it through. Instead, he probably just slightly elevated his voice and refused to clap his hands.

Honestly we all know what will happen. The Seahags will win and it will all somehow be in honor of their injured teammate. The whole screw up by the refs will never be mentioned again.

I seem to remember either Jimmy Johnson or Tom Landry using the rule on purpose to take the penalty but also to get the clock stopped.

That was my understanding of the rule, hence my post earlier.

Of course, otherwise NFL coaches would just call TOs all they want to delay the game when they are out of them or not allowed to use one.
I mean it's just common sense.

Today's refs: "ooooooooooooooooooooh...duh. That makes total sense"
