"Old School"
As a couple of old school Wisconsin alums, the Hackwhackers always take pride in the recognition of other Badgers (Ann [M]Althouse notwithstanding!). This week's Sports Illustrated has a featured article by Peter King ("Old School") that gives a nice profile of future first round NFL draft pick Joe Thomas. Thomas, 6'6" and 313-pounds, is a hard-working, well-prepared and physically gifted student athlete who will grace the offensive line of some lucky NFL team for a long time. King's profile also has some nice nice things to say about Madison, UW, and the football program.
