BILL'S LAST CALL
NFL REF FROM SHOREWOOD READY TO CALL IT QUITS
He's blow his whistle in 2 Super Bowls, 7 Championship games, Pro Bowls and Rose Bowls.
He's also been hazed by Jerry Glanville...and called about every name in the book.
This is the story of Shorewood's Bill Carollo, who after 20 seasons will retire from the NFL to become the Coordinator of Big Ten officials.
Bill tells me that Championship games are even more of an honor to call than even the Super Bowl, because there's so much on the line. And Bill might get a shot at an 8th Conference Championship and maybe even a 3rd Super Bowl.
But sit back and click on the video link to enjoy the great stories and the great career of one of the best referees in the NFL...before he does what a good ref does. Without even hardly knowing his name, he slips quietly off the field...
