So that begs the question is it acceptable for coaches to be fat? I'll grant that a lot of football coaches were ex linemen who have naturally a larger frame than most. But what about other types of coaches?

Couldn't care less if a coach is fat or not if he is a positive influence on his team and wins.

I tend to agree with this. While I don't think I would want my personal trainer to be overweight, knowledge, teaching, and motivational skills are the traits I would look for in a coach.
