Crotch squinting, new Olympic sport?

How upset do you think this basketball player is really going to be when he is remembered for this picture? Embarrassing? Yes. Flattering? Oh yeah!
Dudes gonna carry a copy in his wallet for years.
(Time warp to 2056, pickup bar, middle aged ex-basketball player talking to 20 year old potential future ex-wife.)
Player: "Yeah they tried to pass it off as an optical illusion, but I'm telling you baby, that's all me."

There is a ruckus about whether this is a lighting illusion or if it's his Flying Walinda. What I like best is imagining thousands of people enlarging the photo and squinting at this man's crotch.
