I generally have no problem seeing the play as I'm watching the ball closely. I can usually tell from player positioning (feet-wise) if it would be a 2 or 3.
I would have to say it depends on the position of the scorer's table & the table crew you have to work with.
If the player is that close it would be easier to signal 2 pt. like you're stating, especially opposite side from table.

Hey, chseagle, speaking of signaling 2pt. FG's...
When there is a FG made that is really close to the 3 pt. line...what is your philospophy on weather or not you like a signal, from the official, that it was just a 2pt. FG?
Sometimes I get a confused look from the table as to count the FG as 3 or 2 points...I know we are directed to only signal if it is a 3...but, I gotta tell ya, if it's close and the table is looking at me with wide eyes...I give them the ol' two fingers at waist level as I'm running by.
It really helps the PA announcer also... |
