    Joey breaking the record is the most important, however the respect given to the ones who do not reap the benefits is also important. There are many like Brian Seiken who spend their time, money, and word of mouth to promote the IFOCE. Many of these ambassadors do not earn a dime. All they ask is for a little respect and recognition. That is what Brian was getting at. Cookie Jarvis, you might not understand because you are one of the ones that has reaped the benefits….grasshopper

    OJ you seem to misinterpret the article. It wasnt about upgrading a pass. It was the attitude of a certain individual that ticked me off. There was a back room where all the eaters were hanging out before the contest. I asked if i could just wish them good luck and this same person said “Dont blame me if you get cursed out or yelled at” . Cursed out by who? The eaters and security as well as Nathans reps all gave me high fives and then i left. Mind you i didnt just walk in i gave this person the courtesy and respect of asking if i could just say hello to the guys. Bottom line i was right the other person was wrong . Case closed I know it you know and everyone knows it. I got pounced on for no reason . I am the first one to admit if i am wrong and i also have the balls to apologize when i am wrong. I have yet to get an apology from anyone . I dont need anyone’s apology . Todd thanks. You hit it right on the nose. Cookie got his piece of the pie and then some. Cookie do a spread sheet of both our net earnings with the IFOCE from 2001-2006. Not even a contest . I get crushed hands down. As far as Joey Chestnut why are you mixing apples with oranges? He is a great eater great for the sport. So? How much do you want us to praise him. What he did was fantastic. I gave him his props on my site and then some. Does he put food on my table? Does he pay my bills or anyone else’s for that matter? Hell no . I think you are reeling over the fact that he returned your phone call earlier in the day am i right? He certainly hasnt returned my email or a few other unnnamed eaters that went out of their way to congragulate him . Another note .I was never one to call and email the sheas bitching and moaning about nonsense like some other IFOCE members i wont mention. Ask them how many emails or phone calls i placed to their place of biz in the past year or two years for that matter. You are lucky if you can count them on both hands. Have i ever bitched about getting an award ? Never. I had to self promote 10 yrs in the IFOCE because they wouldnt even give it a mention on their website. Then again i have no problem with that. Im not a child like other whining IFOCE babies “Oh why dont the sheas do this for me and that for me” . Ive heard all the whining and bitching from others so much that i could put together a dvd documentary on all that shit.

    I emailed them July 2nd ? Isnt 48hrs enough ample time? Who told you i asked to be invited the morning of the event?

    It is sad, but true, and unchangeable, that the only thing driving the Sheas is money. BB, they no longer NEED your promotion, just like they no longer NEED to satisfy all of the eater’s wants, because when it comes down to it, if you aren’t directly responsible for putting money into their pockets, you are not going to matter to them. Sure, Rich returned your emails, from talking to others, I get a feeling that Rich himself might be a decent human being, but in matters involving the IFOCE, even he has to draw a line when it comes to things not making money for the organization. He has to answer to the rest of them too. Oh, and BB, telling Cookie to spell check?

    Carey this is your lucky day because i normally dont cheapen myself and reply to anyone on this blog site. A person in my position has alot to lose by lowering himself to that degree. I normally leave my comments and be on my merry way. As far as spell check i certainly admit i have alot left to be desired in the grammar department but i think i beat Mr Jarvis hands down when it comes to spelling words like “Worie” instead of Worry or “Mite” instead of might. And let me ask you what have you accomplished in your short aice career besides eating the same or close to the same amount of strawberries i ate in a fathers day event . That doesnt say much for an up and coming CE nearly duplicating totals from a supposed has been or over the hill former pickle champ Hey a tit for a tat you seem to enjoy sarcasm i can dish it out just as well. . As far as your comments about the Shea’s not needing my promotion any longer , that might hold some truth but to be on the safe side i will paste and copy your comment and send it to the shea’s email and see what they have to say about it. Keep up the bad work .

    all eaters in the contest is none other than the mouth from the south. If anyone cries out for spell check it’s noneother than you know who. Wait forget spell check. Its more like never learned to spell check . To my knowledge he was the only eater that BB did not wish luck .

    How can you say that about Brian after all hes a legend and I thought he would have carte blanche to all competitive eating events if he chooses because his coverage of them is the best and the IFOCE needs him so much.

    Thats okay Brian maybe you can cover the Krystals finals and I hope the the IFOCE will pay your way because you are the true ultimate insider and you cover angles that no one else does and if others dont like the angles they dont have to visit your site its that simple.

    Brian – don’t worry, if the IFOCE ever releases a list of whiny little babies, you will surely be number one on the list. Rich didn’t have to give you a pass at all, yet you’re still complaining because you didn’t have enough access. And on top of that you’re worried about someone else’s attitude? I’m glad to hear now that you’ve decided not to return. All of us will be better off.

    PS – Love the comment from “Brian’s Fan”. Could the retarded grammar make it any more obvious that you posted that comment?

    Well Brian, you did need a lecture. You’re over 40 and you’re whining about the seat you got at a hot dog eating contest. Truly one of the most pathetic things I’ve ever seen on the internet.

    I guess it is my lucky day. Every time you write something on this website you look less intelligent. It’s unfortunate to see that you have turned to slandering homosexuals on the internet. Very classless move on your part. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised.

    Good luck on your next diet. I throw up every time I see your picture on your website. Less pictures of yourself, less whining, and I think you might have a decent website again.

    OUT OF SHAPE EATER I KNOW WHO YOU ARE . FEMALE WITHOUT QUESTION. AS I STATED EARLIER ONE SAD SACK OF PATHETIC SHIT NOT WORTH RESPONDING TO .IN THIS CASE I JUST COULDNT RESIST. ANY GUTLESS ASS LIKE YOURSELF THAT WONT REVEAL YOUR TRUE IDENTITY IS A COWARD TO SAY THE LEAST. I HAVE SEEN YOUR POSTS IN THE PAST AND I REMEMBER A SIMILAR REMARK YOU MADE “SEEING YOU IN THAT SANTA CLAUS HAT MAKES ME WANT TO THROW UP” . I HAVE A GREAT MEMORY. BTW I DONT LIKE HOMOSEXUALS THEY ARE NOT MY CUP OF TEA . HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT? AND YES I ENJOY IRRITATING YOU WHEN I DISCUSS MY WEIGHT AND DIETS. YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT TOO? AND YES I ENJOY RUBBING YOU OR ANY OTHER PATHETIC ASS SUCH AS YOURSELF , THE WRONG WAY. IT EXCITES ME! AS FAR AS PICTURES OF MYSELF. I WILL CONTINUE TO POST MANY MORE PICS OF MYSELF SO YOU CAN THROW UP AS MANY TIMES AS YOU PLEASE. BTW THE NEXT TIME YOU THROW UP I HOPE YOU CHOKE ON YOUR OWN VOMIT. NICE OF YOU TO QUESTION MY INTELLIGENCE .WOULD LOVE TO GET SOME POINTERS FROM YOU OH AND BTW I LOVE YOU . HAVE A LOVELY DAY!

    Get real. There is no turf war. There is no rivalry. Romeo you are an idiot. Brian started this and puts these two nice ladies in the middle to try to defend themselves. He is just a trouble maker. If there is a cat fight, Seiken should be in the middle and Julie and Sonya should scratch that SOB’s eyes out. RRrreowww!

    No wonder no one wants to pay for his videos. He should be paying the viewers. Looking at his pic in that ugly Santa Hat makes me want to laugh and puke simultaneously. I’d rather laugh first, because puking takes the energy out of you.

    Brian, out of shape eater and no percy mercy are one and the same

    Thanks Brian fan for the research . I must admit this is the most i have posted on this site in quite some time. I actually have some free time this past week so i can catch up on some of the losers comments like the ones just mentioned . This strung out or shall i say stressed out mental case that goes by the name of out of shape eater seems to have an obsession with me and with throwing up. I assume there is a correlation between both. Must be a former CE that couldnt control his or her reversals contrary to swallow.or the wife of an aice member. Forgive my caps on the last post . It was the only way to distinguish that disturbed human being’s text compared to mine. My god what a psyco. What on earth did i ever do to this person to get her all bent out of shape. Notice that this same cheapskate did take an hour of their time to watch my entire report from Nathans. Thank you i just made another buck off you without you knowing it .You dick. No wait i might have used the wrong terminology.

    Brian, Thanks for your reply. It was great hearing from you. I have a question though. How much is an up and comer supposed to accomplish in a short career, and if they do match your accomplishments as of late, doesn’t that actually show promise, given that they are improving instead of becoming a “has been or over the hill former pickle champ” Those are your words, not mine. I never trash talked another eater here or anywhere else. By the way, you are the one that has to run everything you want to post by the Shea brothers first, not me. Also, I am sure that the Sheas know everything being said on this site, and I still posted what I said. If I thought they didn’t read these, and I was worried about them finding out, I still wouldn’t be afraid of them opening your email. They probably have your email address on a spam filter by now.
