2012 Deadspin Hall Of Fame Nominee: Fat Chipper Jones
He showed up for spring training looking like a fat ass. His fatness touched off a debate about whether he was fat. Eventually, Fat Chipper himself chewed the fat, and soon there was no denying what everyone else could see. He tried masking it. He found himself a Playboy. He even arranged what sounds like the worst Super Bowl party of all time. And then he went for the optical illusion to disguise all that fat. We also think he retired from baseball.
But does Fat Chipper Jones belong in the Deadspin Hall of Fame? That's up to you. You have until 11:59 p.m. (EST) Sunday night to cast your vote. Keep in mind that Fat Chipper has to get 75 percent of the vote to gain entry.
