My (confusing) philosophy, based on what I have been taught at all levels:
1): Every call is the same: Verbalize and signal, except on pitches called balls (no signal).
2): Every call is different: Some need selling. Others do not. Some, like infield line drives, need no selling but deserve a strong vocal call because the speed of the game is dependent on your call.
Your BS detector is in fine working condition, as far as I can tell.
