Once again, you find humor in such a statement.  Someone states a fact,
and you accuse the person of being insensitive.

We see linebackers knock 350 lb. lineman on their butts and then chase
after world class sprinters.  We see basketball players demonstrate
power, supreme agility, great verticals, and shooting skills.  We see
decalthletes demonstrate skills in ten completely different events.  We
see baseball players run, hit, dive, throw, and catch.  We see
triathletes show super-human endurance.  So naturally, we name some guy
who putts a golf ball athlete of the year."
