Rake & Herald interviews Aaron Osthoff & Brian Subich

Tracy “Mmm” Goode has an interview with Aaron “A Train” Osthoff and “Big” Brian Subich about their retirement from Major League Eating. Brian Subich announces that he plans to run for District Magistrate Judge in the future. They both advise prospective competitive eaters to focus on fun over earnings and would like to see more prize money allocated to lower finishers.

Osthoff and Subich are two of five eaters who have qualified multiple times for the Nathan’s finals and have recently left Major League Eating (or are competing in non-MLE events), which should open up some spots in the 2015 finals. (Osthoff also qualified for the 2012 finals and did not compete).

    When you read this you get a sense of positive energy flowing through the both of these guys . Not once did either of them ever badmouth, point fingers or show animosity or jealousy towards anyone else. I for one am glad Subich did not give kudos to the Goldsteins who typify those exact qualities . People of that sort that look to throw others under a bus to elevate their pathetic miserable lives are not worth jack shit if you get my drift . The big smiles and the phoney handshakes they portray in public is only a mask of their inner misery .

    It is rumored Marcos Owens has retired too from MLE. And Bob Shoudt may not competd this year. So that would free up two more spots. Will Sonya and Ronnie Hartman compete? Will David Wood try again to win a qualifier? Will Colin Shirlow be invited again this year?

    Subich sounds like he’s accepting the academy award. He forgot to give kudos to the guy who provided video proof of him cheating at Nathan’s in Philly.

    10:54 sounds like the babble of noted analyst Dr. Sigmund Tubbo Tubkin.

    What is a bigger shame is the hypocrit who badmouths everyone behind their back and whines like a bitch of you say something. The goldsteins bad mouth one person only. They get along with the others and grumpy loser just hates that. Crawl under a rock you sad sap.

    On the topic in hand, great interview Brian and Aaron. Its more about the fun and cameraderie then the evil $$.

    According to this tweet:

    Bob has retired from MLE. Is this true? I might have missed this info. It’s a shame. He was a great eater.

    I meant that Bob had retired from observing MLE exclusivity. (I could not put that into 140 characters).

    Dragging the former pickle champ through the mud will only make him smell better.
