Are eating contestants athletes or something now? There showing tournaments and stuff on espn now. They win prizes contracts and endorsements and shit to. If I knew sittin on my ass eating all day would get me some where then call me a world class athlete cause ill eat some shit up. Do people really enjoy watching these people by complete gluttons.

It's not as simple as "eat tons and you'll win"...if you've watched the guy who continues to win is a little asain guy. It takes some skill....and I find it entertaining if nothing else is on...

yeah kobayashi is a freak. they did a thing on mtv true life on him and some other posers. but he worked out and benched a assload. i mean it was ALOT ALOT. it was crazy. and then they go all scientific on it by eating certain ways to expand their stomach sizes and all. it's pretty interesting.

It takes skill to be a glutton..? On one channel, you got some dipshit that thinks he's proving some kind of point by eating McDonald's 3 times a day for a month, and thus taking away my beloved super size option, and then on the other channel, some dude is eating his ass off and winning tournaments...

I'd rather nip at my dick with toenail clippers than watch some shit like this on TV...

You'd lose, and on top of that, you don't have enough dick to come to the table and make that bet in the first place, less we gave it 3 to 1 odds...Hahaha...I don't have time to watch good things on TV, let alone glutton contents...
