The two middle fingers would be the middle and ring finger, not the index and middle finger.

You must have a lot of dexterity to pull off a T with the actual MIDDLE fingers of one hand.

FYI, I took Rich's response to mean the middle finger on both hands coming together to signal a T.
I can't believe this wasn't understood. Of COURSE that's what I meant. I had a partner when I lived in Tennessee whack a coach like that -- right middle finger coming together with left middle finger. He did it so quickly nobody (but me) caught it.

I've seem Joe Crawford give a T with just his index fingers.

Ever since I started participating in this thread, I've called two direct technicals on head coaches, my first since last January.

Both coaches wanted them. I was happy to oblige.

Frankly, I could not and still can not believe an actual adult would be immature enough to do something like this.

But apparently so.

Boys & girls, do not give the coach the finger when you T him.
