Ah yes, because footballers are all tossers and rugby players are all fine upstanding citizens

This is true!

Particularly Welsh Rugby Players

Well yes, indeed, except Danny Care, Danny Cipriani, Delon Armitage, Mike Tindall and quite a lot of others who played for England before Mr Lancaster arrived.

Yep, but they were tossers. If you're fat but you perform and you're not a complete jerk you won't get this kind of thing.

Yes, they do. Wayne Rooney, Frank Lampard, Ronaldo (the Brazillian one) all got stick about their weight.

I don't think male sportspeople have to deal with this kind of BS.

If you threw in the bag of flour, yeah.

I bet she's got green mould growing in between the blubber flaps.

...Perhaps the idiots who say this kind of thing just don't have the guts to say 'you're a bit tubby' to a 16 stone back row forward.

No, we haven't got the guts, because you've hogged them all, you fat git.

[Mich the Tester]

That's disgraceful. I've seen more fat on a chip.

Joking aside, there is a bit of a problem with young female athletes being told stupid things about their weight. They're doing everything they can to win and are often vulnerable to some dipstick coach or official who makes stupid remarks about their weight. Strangely though, I spent about 15 years in high level competitive sport and never heard any remarks about my weight, even though I sometimes carried a little extra fat reserve on my belly; I don't think male sportspeople have to deal with this kind of BS.

This one is definitely going to win the Welsh Gold for Bombing though.

Medics smash house to save 63 stone teen Georgia Davis | The Sun |News

The teenager, who took TWO plane seats on her flight across the Atlantic, enjoyed hikes in the Blue Ridge mountains, basketball and tennis.

After shrinking from Size 38 to Size 22 she was able to wear fashionable clothes for the first time. But within 20 months of her dramatic transformation she was back up to 40st 6lbs on a 13,000 calorie-a-day diet. She said: “When I arrived home my mum said she hadn’t had time to prepare any healthy food, so we had fish and chips instead.”

This one isn't fat either, but seems to have an issue with a little tissue.

London 2012 Olympics: American hurdler Lolo Jones says being a virgin is harder than training for Games - Telegraph

She's 29 and can't find the right man to marry because they all get turned off when she says she's a virgin and that's a really difficult thing to be. I think she has a bigger issue with her IQ. But then, she's American.

If being called fat is all she has to worry about then she must be happy.
