IMPATIENT WITH JOCK CULTURE?

This will get you fired up.

[A side note - jock culture is indeed often nefarious (particularly at UW, if you've been following the multifarious candyman and money scandals) but I thought I should add that it among the Art TAs we all noted that UW players were usually -not always - excellent art students, mostly because they were used to focused discipline. And it should be noted that one of the leading contemporary artists in the world, Mathew Barney, maker of the deeply disturbing (why are they always deeply disturbing?)Cremaster series, was a football jock from Idaho.
