    Congratulations Bob, wow you are beating up the top guys, I am sure you have found a new technique or something, that’s great, it is always good to see different results, it is more interesting to have different winners for the contests, it is like car racing, seeing Button winning all the competitions was boring, now you see anyone can win and that adds interest to the competition, well done Bob (share the secret sir!)

    Steakbellie has finished higher in contest standings then Pat B has in the past few weeks. Will Pat be jumping over to the WLOCE soon?

    Pat is still the man! He’s just having a rough stretch, but if you overlook him he’ll eat you alive!

    Yeah, a rare off day for Pat. He’ll bounce back.

    CNN had a brief thing about Bob’s back to back wins. I think they called it “every over eater’s dream come true.”

    Humble Bob is on a roll! Right now he’s clearly the third best eater in the world behind Joey and Koby.

    Joey, Koby, Pat, and Tim have likely seen their (ever-impressive!) best days already. But Humble Bob is just now hitting his best stride. That’s good to see. He’s a gentleman of the sport.
