Orakpo Representing!
Last season, we saw the rise of the South Florida Bulls and with their success came alot of exposure. I remember many of us being a little bothered that they adopted our hand sign \m/ as their own. As awesome as it was (and is) to see everybody throwing up their horns, they need to be reminded that their hand sign looks more like the "i love you" sign in sign language. Let's hope Orakpo got a chance to educate his fellow Playboy All-American after this picture. Hook 'em!!

"Hook'em Horns!" UR DOIN IT WRONG
Come on Orakpo, do it right! The dude from South Florida is displaying his horns correctly. Matthew McConaughey was the first person I saw throw up his horns backwards, so I hate it. Now I’m seeing the backwards/sideways horns, they might as well be upside down. Maybe people feel like the backwards/sideways Horns are more gangsta, like holding your gat sideways.
The dude from South Florida needs to educate Orakpo on the correct way to throw your horns up.

I've been fuelin' my dreams eatin' greens and beans.

i agree
I don’t like the sideways/backwards horns. Too gangsta.

Gangsta?
I always disliked it because it was too McConaugheyish, who I would not consider gangsta.

Its just sloppy
The only time Im not palms out is if Im some combination of dead tired or drunk or lazy.
If Im awake and only mildly inebriated, its 90 degrees at the armpit, 90 degrees at the elbow, and palms forward. Old band habits die hard.

Orakpo's got it all wrong, Screamin'
You’re doing it just like the South FL player in your avatar!
It's a Horns' world. Even Aggies play hoops with a burnt orange ball.
Is it football season YET?

yes I am
You’re right. I didn’t even dawn on me to think that Orakpo was misrepresenting by flashing the Hook em sign backwards. I’ve never thrown my horns out like that. I agree it is kinda gangsta. The South Florida player is doing it the “Texas” way or according to this the “South Florida” way.
The Sign of the BULL
Create bull horns from the fingers on your hand and send the message that silently screams “Go Bulls!” First started as a good luck wish for basketball free-throw shooters, the sign of the bull hand signal is today used during basketball games, football games, and other USF events as the premier “Go Bulls” cheering symbol.

Anytime I find myself...
... complaining about how some guy is doing something wrong with his hands, I try to take a step back and re-evaluate my life.
