No need to bird-dog or point direction on a PC foul. There's only one player in control of the ball, so no need to bird-dog him. Also, since the PC is always on the offense, no need to point, since we're obviously going "that way!"

For many years, I went directly to the PC signal, and didn't use a raised fist. I've come to the conclusion that the avoidance of the blarge is much more important than the instantaneous "sell" of giving the secondary signal immediately. Just my opinion.

Uh,oh!
I just thought, ... I am not sure that I have bird-dogged all year. Hmmmm.
