mplagrow, what is your signal for an illegal dribble. There are signals for traveling, illegal dribble (double dribble), and palming/carry. You know what we are talking about here, if the ball comes to rest and the dribble continues - call it. signal carry or DD. What's the point?
My only signal is the one given in the NFHS rule book for 'illegal dribble'.

The point is, we harp on coaches for asking us to call 'reaching in' and 'over the back.' Then we come up with an unofficial mechanic, flipping the wrist and call out 'carry!' I make an effort to keep my calls and mechanics within the limits of the rulebook. If a coach asks for clarification, I'll tell him he palmed it or carried it, but until they create a new mechanic, I've got an illegal dribble.
