In reply to the discussion: Anybody seen this video of QB Ryan Fitzpatrick flashing the white power symbol last year? [View all]bearsfootball516
(6,377 posts)4. It's a game that some people play. It's hard to describe.
The goal of the game is to make someone look at your hand, and for the person not making the hand gesture, the goal is to not fall for it. There are a few people where I work who like to play it.
Like, youd be walking past someones desk, and theyd knock their water bottle off their desk and go oh no! And instinctively, youd look down to see if it spilled. When you look down, hes making th hand gesture down by the water bottle and you saw it, so he won that round.
Like I said, its hard to describe.

You're off base. It's a hand signal known by other team members used in calling a football play.
