IT WOULDN'T take many modifications to turn The Thinker into The Holdout. The posture, as exhibited by Darren Sproles and Fletcher Cox on Wednesday afternoon, is actually quite similar to Rodin's masterpiece: a muscular man, hunched forward in a sitting position, elbows on knees, face angled toward the ground, ignoring everything around him. All it's missing is a cellphone in the left hand and a locker in front. Oh, and a pack of reporters gathering at his back, although that part doesn't require nearly the level of detail as the rest of it (in fact, you might want to find a material other than bronze).
