ESPN The Magazine - Body Issue

Postby iPrototype on Thu Oct 06, 2011 3:09 am

They've done this before, if you're not aware they take a bunch of athletes and take naked picture of them to show off the athlete body blah blah blah. Hope Solo is a model this year :roll:

Anyway you can check out the photo gallery here, some pretty amazing photos if you're a fan of photography. Blake Griffin does a pretty cool jordan pose.

EDIT: The history of this, I think they began making this to show that you don't have to be a size zero to have a good body. Athletes are healthy and looked up upon but they have their flaws, ESPN began making it to show it's not all about being skinny but taking care of yourself. It's a good reason (Y)

lol at ESPN. That reason is only applicable for females (or anorexic men). I doubt those demographic read ESPN the magazine or even watch ESPN.
