Last week, a blogger sent around the image of the latest ESPN the Mag with a pregnant Candace Parker on the cover. Interest, piqued. Our magazine arrived in the mail Thursday and we greatly enjoyed this intro:

Candace Parker is beautiful. Breathtaking, really, with flawless skin, endless legs and a C cup she is proud of but never flaunts. She is also the best at what she does, a record-setter, a rule-breaker, a redefiner. She is a woman who plays like a man, one of the boys, if the boys had C cups and flawless skin.

It’s a story to grab everyone – males, the lesbians who follow the WNBA, and Madison Avenue. She’s the male version of Derek Jeter, Tom Brady! All the girls want to be her friend, and all the guys want to get with her. Wonder if the Landlord has a shotgun?
