I'm sorry, but does anyone think that male athletes' weight—and every other aspect of their bodies—is discussed, scrutinized, and criticized the way that female athletes are? Equity demands acknowledgment of disparate circumstances, which I certainly think is the case here.

Just once, I'd like to see a male athlete's height and weight juxtaposed with his height and weight years later when he's a fat old coach.

Oh wait...here's one. 12-year NBA veteran and former USF men's basketball coach, and San Jose native, Rex Chapman.

Here he is as a 6'4", 185 pound guard...

And 45 pounds later, Rex is a 6'3" (must have shrunk an inch) and 230-pound assistant coach:

I think these are different people....
