Problem is, there are officials out there that would say that if you can't work these games just as well 2-man you don't belong on the games.

One more tonight. Fifth 3-person game in 4 days -- consolation game of a Christmas tourney. We're taking 2 checks for 3 officials. Third time this season, so tonight I'm the one working for free.

Thursday and Friday I was in IL working holiday tourneys and, of course, we got paid for 3. They wouldn't do it any other way. And they have the same "budget" issues any other state and their school districts have.
