While the others blubber and spout on like whales, now we can get to serious, useful discussion. Is there an interp which says, no rule does, that appearing to be taking signs = taking signs. Appears to be a judgment, ok, if an ump wants go go that route, more power to him.

Wait....a flash.... ...what if the signs are coming from the bench? Or there are no signs at all? Or.........
