I used to think that about the Toronto Raptors point guard, Jose Calderon until I saw him standing next to a normal sized person. He's 6'3, but looks like a midget on the bb court, where I first saw him play against Yao Ming and the Houston Rockets, who is 7'6" and 300 lbs.
I'd love to see His Cleesiness up next to Yao - it would be His turn to look like a midget. Serves Him right for looking down on His disciples.
Heh heh...it's a 5 foot 5 inch above the ground world for basketball players! LOL!
Somewhere online, I saw a photo of John standing next to Shaquille O'Neal, who is 7'1" and 325 pounds. John looked positively diminutive, and he's a big man! Unfortunately, I can't find the picture now.
