    This is the website to the yahoo front page story of Kobayashi unable to open his jaw much and he may not be able to compete if he doesn’t get better soon.

    This guy is a lunatic. How could he rank the World Armwrestling Championship and Wife Carrying World Championship above Nathans? And it wasn’t even close, those 2 were ranked in the 60’s.

    you obviously have never been to the Wife Carrying World Championship. Neither have I. But I have to assume that there are people out there as enthusiastic about carrying their wives as we are about eating competitively. Did you notice the Super Bowl is not on that list?
