Just my $.02 for the above comments:
musicguy81, your buddy has a sweet-looking print: not too much, but definitely enough to make someone take a second look.
size is relative, I'm without a doubt what you'd call a "trendy asshole." Because of my 5'8", 140# frame, slim fit trousers look best on me. So I know exactly what you mean about the bulge looking ginormous. I don't worry about it either ;O)
And lastly, trebor mints: To this day, seeing a prong in a pair of sweat pants is still one of the best things going. lol
