Vincent Lamar Wilfork. NFL Defensive Tackle. Pro Bowler. Future Hall of Famer. Male Model. American Hero. ESPN is releasing their annual "Body Issue" which has become the red-headed step child to Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Edition. Every year we have 10-12 jacked, ripped up athletes peacocking around showing off their cool "muscles" that they "worked so hard for." Sorry to break it to you guys but you're not the only one who has worked hard for their physique. I grinded all winter for this trophy I call my body. You think this Dadbod built itself?
A few years back we had Prince Fielder who set the bar pretty high for us fat guys but this year we get not only America wants but what America NEEDS. Vince Wilfork is a fat guy's fat guy. At 4 plus bills he's athletic, nimble and if you’ve ever seen any of NFL episodes of Hard Knocks you know this guy can eat but did you know he was a motivational speaker? “I know I don’t have the six-packs and the eight-packs and all that … but I’m perfectly fine with what I am. If people can look at me, look at a guy that’s 325-plus doing an issue like this, I’m pretty sure that they might have a little confidence after seeing that it’s OK to be who you are.”
A fat guy's fat guy indeed. Truly inspiring words. Just goes to show you that fat shamers like @weatherford5 can throw stones but they can't tear us down. Vince, open invite to join M&F once you decide to hang it up.
