Palms up

In my small area of the world we refer to this as the "Jesus arms." As soon as we see it we address it as showing up the officials and inciting team mates and fans, letting them know that they don't agree with the official's call. We tell the captain and coaches we will not allow players to consistantly do that and we don't want to see it any more. If we do it will warrant an "T" for unsportsmanlike conduct.
