It’s hard to watch the college-baseball World Series, under way now in Omaha, Neb., without noticing how different the college game is from the major-league version. Not in the caliber of play or the funny ping of the aluminum bats, but in the way the players look.

College kids definitely know what it’s like to have the munchies at 3 a.m., pass by a fast food place and feel the temptation. And as if a SuperSized soft drink wasn’t big enough to entice us,
