What did I do? Blow my whistle, skipped the stop-the-clock signal*, and used the FIBA team control signal and yelled . . .

"fisting". Everyone laughed. A lot. Not sure why.

At this point, did the creepy "porn" music start playing? Maybe Larry Flynt came out to tell you good job. Just wondering, BUT, I would probably look for a different term next time


* They play a running clock, so there really is no need to issue a stop-the-clock signal.
