PK Subban grossly body-shames with ‘Lizzo-sized lunch’ comment on ESPN

If that headline up above looks familiar, it should.

We were JUST talking about how Hall of Famer Phil Esposito body-shamed a Maple Leafs fan during the first round of the NHL playoffs when he talked on-air about “a fat woman who’s yappin’ like crazy.”

Now? We’ve got ex-NHL defenseman PK Subban who, on the air with ESPN earlier in the week, commented that a team — I think it’s the Toronto Maple Leafs — maybe “need[s] to pack a Lizzo-sized lunch.”

C’mon. We absolutely don’t need that. Totally unnecessary. I haven’t seen an apology from Subban yet but I would hope there’s one coming soon.
