Not to switch sports on you guys here, but I will mention the names of Mendy Rudolph, Earl Strom, Ritchie Powers, Jake O'Donnell. Although not as flamboyant as Ron was in his sport, each was definitely not as sterile as their sport has turned out to be for their officials. This is the style now for all officiating it seems. Maybe that is because the powers that be all thought a guy like Ron was going way to far overboard and wanted to clamp down. It was not done overnight, but now, it appears that any styles are the exception rather than the rule. So be it. If that is what they want, that is what they will get. As long as you know how they want it, you can adapt.
