UW football: When it comes to all that free swag, sometimes it’s hard to choose

Most holiday shoppers are in the market for gifts to give to family and friends. That was the case for some members of the University of Wisconsin football team over the weekend when they got to choose from presents made available through their pending trip to the Rose Bowl. A gift suite was set up before a recent practice where players and coaches could chose from 27 items of varying lavishness ? from a leather recliner, Xbox 360 and a 22-inch flat-screen TV to camcorders, headphones and a mountain bike.
