I guess it boils down to what constitutes a prelim signal. L had a whistle and was coming out with a block. To think he was coming out with anything other than is a huge stretch. possible? yes probable? no. It's why the T give him the double handed wave/stop sign. HE knew what the signal was.

So if an official raises their arms you consider that a signal for a foul? I am not trying to be sarcastic or factious in asking this, but since when did that become one signal over another? Even if we "know" what he was going to call, not sure how that automatically constitutes that call. I have said before I used to raise both my arms to signal a PC foul and know others that do when they feel they have to sell one of these calls. Now we have to assume what we know the signal was as the standard? I hope then when someone comes running off the end line we know they are calling a PC foul too? Or watch Joey Crawford.
