I do not think the issue is whether or not you are getting games. The issue is whether how you are being judged. We can all be judged by whatever reason someone comes up with. You cannot legislate why people want to judge you or not. If a coach, assignor, fan thinks you are too fat to get up and down the court that is up that coach, fan, and assignor to think that way. It might not be fair, but if you go into a bar and see a girl that you think is pretty, no one can tell you that you have to talk to the ugly girl. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. So what is considered fat or overweight is very subjective. After all we are doing something where we have to keep up. It is not like we are sitting in a chair and doing mathematical equations. We are running after kids that are many times more than half our ages and we need to show we can keep up with them consistently. Players are judged on their physical ability, why should we be any different?
