I've always had a gripe with position players who aren't in good shape.

Oh the muscle gain wasn't the only mental gymnastics I performed. I started thinking about how I had consumed roughly 1.5L of water, 20oz of coffee, was wearing a suit, etc. Of course the weight gain isn't due to eating pizza twice a week, or the fast food consumed daily for lunch, how could that be possible?
