But obviously SOME signs DO NOT GET CODIFIED because they are useless, or unprofessional, or some other perfectly good reason that would keep them from being used oustide a sandlot -- and certainly not in championship play. In fact, I'm sitting here smiling thinking of how Larry Montgomery, who is a very nice man, would get madder than a (your cliche here) if someone sprang that ol' double fist pump on him at, say, Men's Class A Final.

If nothing else, there would be an empty hotel bed somewhere...

No one, least of all me, ever suggested or used a double fist pump, in any ASA sanctioned game or tournament.
