The thing is that fat isn't even really a reference to his size, at least not directly. In fact it's more of the fans way of calling him lazy. I've noticed that recently about big people. If they're seen as slackers or in the way they get called fat. If they're go getters and hard workers they get called big. Case in point "Big Mike Williams" and "Fat Albert."

I've also noticed that when Haynesworth is playing well he gets called Big Al where when he seems to be slipping, like when he's on the field winded, he gets called "Fat Albert."
