Badlands 38.5? I guarantee he will not eat anywhere near that in the finals. Again, a miscount of plates in the qualifiers.

I see 3 sub-deuce wins ..does that mean there will be 4 (3 + the original wild-card spot) wild-cards??

I don’t think the 20 HDB minimum was in effect for the military qualifiers
Bryan Beard is doing a radio interview about the finals, so presumably the minimum has been waived for him

without Koby, its just gonna be Joey kicking everyones ass which equals to BORING, I’m sorry but Joey isnt exciting, hes boring, I can see both sides of this, but unless the MLE is paying for my airfare,hotel and expenses to events, they can kiss my ass as far as what i can eat in and cant eat in.

Won’t be the same without Koby. Didn’t know he got his visa on his own. It’s a lost in translation no win on both sides. Expect to see Koby lots in the States. His visa is for three years. He’s legit.

i agree but up to a point. They guys that are wining prize money on a consistent basis competing in contests are prime money makers for the organization and should abide by the contract . Their hotel and air expenses are usually covered by the sponsor but even if it is not the money they make competing offsets that expense. As far as midranked eaters that never see a dime in contest winnings while MLE or the sponsors never pay for airfare or hotel expenses, then they could go kiss where the sun dont shine . They should be able to eat anywhere and anyplace they want without a question

Koby is the best of the best. The ifoce squeezed tried to squeeze all the could out of him before he was cast aside like an old pair of shoes. Undoubtedly several potential ifoce sponsors will probably throw their support behind Koby, realizing they can save money by cuting out the middle man, the ifoce.

So does this mean that the IFOCE’s up & coming eater Brian Dudzinski should be banned from future IFOCE events now that he has finished in the money of a non-sanctioned event? Perhaps Dud Light should wear a shirt supporting Kobi because he is next!!!!!
