Bret Bielema, UW-Madison football coach: “There are two things I’m so thankful that my father taught me – and he did it without me knowing that’s what he was doing. Fridays nights I’d play football with the team and they’d be talking about what they were doing the next day … going to the mall or whatever. Every Saturday we’d get up and do chores at 6 a.m. until they were done, around 1 or 2 in the afternoon. (He grew up on a pig farm.) I thought it was a way of life. It taught me discipline.
