As the U, in the pre-game the R always asks if I will signal touchdown and I always answer, "Only if the runner is handing me the ball in the endzone and the wings haven't already gone up." Sad part is it has actually happened.
I have heard of a mechanic some other boards use with the U putting his fist to his chest if he sees the runner in, in case the wings get blocked out, but we keep getting chewed on for using unofficial mechanics so generally it is not used around here.
