As for tennis players and eye-hand coordination, I like to see them swing at the tennis ball with a round bat that has about the same circumference as the baseball, rather than a flat surface that is several times larger than a tennis ball.
Yes, there are a lot of baseball players who look out of shape, but they still do what it takes to get to and remain at the top level.
As for fat guys, using your thoughts, how can anyone possibly respect or admire the fat-asses that play on the offensive line in the NFL? They get rewarded for being lazy as well, don't they?
It's ok to not like baseball, but don't disparage what they do until you try it and do better.

Not entirely true. We've had pro baseball players in our area, and I'm very familiar with their efforts, as well as pro golfers, pro football players and pro soccer players. Pro baseball players have it the easiest.
