Vince Wilfork the Centerfold
This comic, about Vince Wilfork, featuring my podcast co-host Sam, inspired by a joke made on Intentional Sounding. Are you listening? Why not? Don’t do me dirty like that. Shame on you. Our dick jokes are good.
Recently Vince Wilfork was announced as the cover of the ESPN Body issue. In case you don’t read ESPN Magazine (why would you? It’s kind of pointless, especially in the internet age) the “Body Issue” is ESPN’s version of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue except actually somewhat respectable. Lets be honest here, the SI Swimsuit issue is PG porn disguised as a fashion issue. It’s pathetically transparent to the point of ridiculous. I mean, they decided to keep it relevant in the internet age by introducing the concept of body painting. Painting swimsuits onto ladies is not actual swimsuits. It’s an excuse to put “naked” ladies in their easy to purchase publication. The SI Swimsuit issue is a relic of pre-internet teenager jacking material and should be retired.
The ESPN Body Issue is far more interesting. It takes pictures of both male and female athletes, naked, in artistic ways that cover their squishy bits. It’s meant to show the beauty of the athlete and it’s thought provoking and frankly pretty interesting. I’m not saying it’s mensa-requirement type reading but compared to the SI PG porno issue the ESPN Body issue is at least Scientific American. They made waves a few years ago putting..larger man Prince Fielder in the issue, and have made even further strides for body acceptance this year with 325 lb. Vince “Is that a literal whale” Wilfork on the cover. I’m in favor of it. It’s nice to see something different and some appreciation for the fact that not every elite athlete is the same type. Some athletes are Hitmonlee, some athletes are Machamp, and some, like Vince Wilfork, are Snorlax.
That was for you, Sam.
I never read it, what did he look like?
Wait, isn’t body issue the one picture where it shows an athlete leaping through the air naked?
I was hoping for a hefty lefty issue but Big Vince is ok to laugh at too
srsly kill urself
I’m disappointed that this wasn’t a comic about Denard Robinson taking a nap in his car in a pond, but this will do.
> a comic about Denard Robinson taking a nap in his car in a pond,
We need this.
The Police Officer that responded to the Denard Robinson report has the quintessential beat cop name; “Frank Camacho”.
Also, that comic writes itself when you consider that D-Rob was officially listed a few years ago on the Jags roster as “Offensive Weapon”. Cop finds (offensive) weapon in car.., but it’s too soon to poke fun at that still open wound.
I see that Pokemon shirt. You’re trying to be the very best, like no one ever was, aren’t you Dave?
Why Dave, Why?
Wait is the guy with the magazine supposed to be Sam Greseseseseseseseseseseseseses
Machamp body type? There’s an athlete out there with four arms?
Watching Manny Pacquiao in his prime, it sure felt like it.
You would make Poké-references right on the release of Pokémon Go, wouldn’t you.
WHY IS THERE AN EEVEE IN MY BATHROOM
I was sad we didn’t get a Cox Money Robot
This is freaking amazing. I knew what was coming before I scrolled down after I saw panel 3 but I still laughed just as hard.
Also like how Vince is also on the cover of Whales Monthly.
Accidentally clicked the comic.
“Sports illustrated Swimsuit Issue abbreviated is SISI.
That is ISIS spelled backwards.
Makes u think.”
Ummmmmmmm
Luminate cinfoorm
The “Whales” magazine cover is a very underrated Easter Egg, or you just didn’t wanna draw another fake cover. I’m going with the first one
First one. Dave often finds comedy genius by plucking the lowest hanging fruit and leaving it for his audience to discover.
325 lbs, lol. There’s no way big Vince is under 350.
Totally. I’m 300 and nowhere near his size.
We love Big Vince
