A light schedule for Welmer, who probably worked 15 games in 15 days.

Yup. Was he the one who signalled travelling on an inbounding play??

Ugh.

I love when people get all upset over this. And the big dogs will continue to do it and not really care what any of us think.

I'm not upset. When I'm upset, "Ugh" isn't how I express it. It's just that for every "travel" call in a TV game, there will be 10 more explanations needed for calls that I don't make in one of my games. Ugh.

That might not be true. I'm pretty good friends with a pretty big dog. I went to one of his games recently and he incorrectly signaled travel on the thrower who violated the wide of the spot throw-in boundary. I asked him about it afterwards and he said, "what's the proper signal?" He was actually a little embarrassed (he did it because he saw another big dog do it that way long ago) and will not do it again.

Actually, he worked 12 games in those same 15 days.

I worked 9 (but 3 games were postponed due to the weather, which rarely happens at that level).

I'm amazed at how many games these guys work, but since it's all they do, it's probably easier than it seems on them.
