2. Give the refs a judgment call, similar to when a batter tries to step out of the box right as the pitcher begins his motion. If the ref rules that the T.O. was called right as, or only a split-second before, the ball was snapped, he can ignore the T.O. and let the play go.

Giving that type of power to the refs is probably not the best way to go. It will either be too easy for the ref to mess up and take away a team's ability to call a time out. Or it will be really weak and pointless because a coach can make an excuse for needing the time out(no coach should ever have to explain his time out to a ref before hand)
