Blocking Signal ...

Here in my little corner of Connecticut, rookies are taught to use the proper signal (open palms), but after that, both signals seem to be "tolerated". For me personally, I usually go with fists at the site of the foul (probably because of observing old timers do it back when I was on my way up the ladder) and then go with open palms when reporting. I'd love to use the proper signal all the time, but it's tough to teach an old dog old tricks.
