As for INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS, well, they are their own business, and they are able to dictate how much or how little they can handle.

As for the rest of us who wish we were in his shoes . . . the door is opening, now what are we going to do about it.
I assume that Mr. Welmer enjoys what he does and would like to continue for as long as possible.

As for the Final Four...bigdog, do you really think he has any shot at a Final Four? He hasn't worked the tournament at all for the last two years, and he worked one game each in 2006 and 2007.

Now you and I would love to have worked a career that even remotely resembles his and I would come close to killing for one shot to work a game in the NCAA tourney, but he's been there and done that. Judging by his recent record I would be shocked if he ever got the chance to work the FF even if he comes back completely healthy
