Men's Fitness continues to photoshop athletes

First they gave Andy Roddick Hulk Hogan's 24 inch pythons & now they've given Josh Beckett a new face & a flat stomach

His face seems a little too computer generated in this. Not to mention this...

I'm waiting for the Tayshaun Prince cover that makes him look like Lex Luger.

Showing pics from last year doesn't really help your argument.

I'd have to say both pictures look fake. Although Beckett does look a bit bigger in spring, not that it really means a whole lot.

Your also talking about a 40 year old man who couldn't train as hard as he wanted too after his ankle got injured.

Beckett will be fine for the season. He wasn't fat last season and I don't think he will be this season either.

New York fans will find anything to go after Boston with. (and vice versa before someone cries) Who cares how flat his stomach is?

David Wells always had a gut and still was a great pitcher.
