Former Vols superstar Candace Parker lights up the cover of ESPN The Magazine with her killer smile. She also certainly fills up the cover with her belly. The PR for the issue promotes it as the first cover featuring a pregnant athlete. Is that surprising? Unless LeBron, Kobe, Peyton or Manny are slated for some Sweedish operations I don't think we'll see it again soon.
Some think the pic is great. But Parker (who is the sister of Toronto Raptors guard Anthony Parker) has taken some heat for the pregnancy, which came before she married the T-Wolves Shelden Williams, who once played for the hated Duke University Dookies. Even some thought she should have better planned her baby around the WNBA season!
In other, sports mom's news, the New York Times has a feature on USC cutie Brynn Cameron, who is the baby mamma of the Cardinals' Matt Leinart.
