Sorry Big Boys

Since Paula dragged me around the country the past few days and since we were going through Cincinnati, we decided to stop for a baseball game on the way home.

As I looked up at the score board, I noticed that I was about the same weight as the first baseman.  This got me thinking to when I read Oprah's book, "Make the Connection."  In one of her diary entries she laments the fact that she is at the ESPYs and they announce this famous running back and his weight.  And all she can think of is that she weighs more than a professional football player!  I can not wait until I weigh less than all sports guys.

I looked up the averages:

Avg NFL player is 248 pounds.  (Heaviest players are offensive tackles who average 318!)  I am skinnier!!!!!
Avg MLB player is 196 pounds.
As I have always had a thing for hockey players, I added them to the list as well.
Avg MLH player is 210.
Brett Favre played at 222.

I want to be able to go to sporting events and weigh less than the athletes!!!
