    Oh god both of them are completely nuts. Its nice to see that this is what they spend their afternoon’s doing. I wonder what other interesting things the two of them do together with their spare time. Any minute now Don moses lerman should appear on this thread complaining that they stole his idea.

    Leave the man alone. He has had alot of hardships in his life.A flute version of yankee doodle dandy will play in the background while i recite this testimonial “This Jewish man served in the US marines. The navy and army enlist whimps. Lets see you tough guys enlist into the marines Hah? . He takes pride in his trophies over money. Ven Lerman was 30 yrs old he could out eat any man or animal. He worked day and night in a day old bread shop. The hands that molded that bread made him the great eater he is today. Look how many beans he ate in less than 2 min and held in all his farts until he got home. Few can do that! When George Shea announced at a Belmont race track qualiifier three years ago “The butter champ is in the house” Lerman stood there proudly wearing his black leather jacket Fastest hands of competitive eating .He did right by the jewish people by becoming the matza ball champ. And now you sheet on him? As they say in Yiddish shanda on all of you. Gayshin cockin!

    I’m proud of my boys!! I used to eat a spoonful of dogfood as a trade to get my kids to take a mouthful of vegetables…..My kids still hate vegetables, but I’ve grown quite fond of Alpo’s new filet mignon cuts….goes good with all bottled waters!

    back to the film guys.

    These two Manahattan top-dog-chiens and their canned caballus meats are just too much for me. I could never afford canned dog food let alone NAMEBRAND canned dog food growing up in Jersey. The dry crunch of a $5.99 20lbs bag of Econo-Mets Dry Chunk was all I had to accompony my 6-pack of warm Peals beer.

    I appreciate their efforts but I lope to the bowl with too much of my own bagage……

    I like it. Good on you Crazy Legs and Tim. Somehow regardless of the subject matter DON MOSES LERMAN seems to have a need to rain on every person’s parade and make himself the center of attention. I always liked him but either he has changed or I just never knew this side of him.

    “Operation Delermanize” – all shall attempt to break every record held by Don Lerman, so as his name is no longer attached to any current statistics associated with competitive eating.

    “Defeat Delermanization” – the efforts of one man, Don Lerman, to remind everyone of how good he used to be, but is no longer.

    anonymous, Lerman is not the type that will give up his seat in a car or plane for someone else. Before they had the 3 limit Nathans qualfier rule years back he would show up at every single local contest to ensure he would get a spot . George Shea would call it loyalty i call it obnoxious and selfish

    Lerman i used to compete years ago but gave it up and i remember you and your buddy krazy kevin would show up at meadowlands, and all the other jersey or ny contests just so you could get to the finals. There might have been others that would have liked a spot at coney . I think if there were twenty local nathans contests you would show at every single one until you finally won. .

    What tour?!? Is that what you call going on the road? Were there any 80 yr old groupies trailing your tour bus?

    Can you please give us a break. “on tour not for myself but to further the bergining (is that beginning or burgeoning?) sport of ce”

    That friend was me and i thank you for that gesture Don. George Shea’s response to Don was that noone is allowed to give away a spot at the table but it was ok for Mike Devito to give his spot to Ed Krachie in 2000 .I am no Ed Krachie but favortism held court in that particular day . I will assume that i was denied that spot due to the fact that i won a non sanctioned pickle title that year

    Rhonda, et al,

    Tom “Goose” Gilbert won eggs w/ 46

    “Eatmiser” Menchetti was 2nd w/41

    Some controversy. Mark Lyle claims there were more than 30 eggs on his 1st tray that was supposed to have 25 on it. The only untouched tray I counted, after the contest, was Chris “The American” Schlessingers which had 25 on it. I had a 2-3 egg lead going into the 2nd tray.

    It wasn’t my 1st loss of the day. I also attempted oysters, (which is all technique) & failed miserably. A college age woman won for the 2nd year in a row w/ 82 in 2 minutes. If it wasn’t for the egg contest I may have tried a 2nd time (it was in heats, & I wasn’t full) even after seeing the way she did it, I do not know if I could have beaten her. The contest was fun though, & I hope to make it back next year.

    This should make this thread the longest ever, with the upcoming celebration of my losing, not once but twice, & to a female to boot.

    Lerman your grammar is absolute horror. I cannot understand what you wrote. As far as you offering your spot at Nathans to Seiken, did you actually tell him that you would like to give him your spot or did you approach or call George Shea about it first? If i remember correct you participated in that 2002 contest and if you really were sincere you would have sat it out no matter what.

    I’m sure this has already been mentioned, but how can this be a copycat thing when the spirit of it is so totally different. I have never seen the winbowl stunt, but I’d assume it involves eating several pounds of it as fast as possible (i.e. speed eating). Crazy Legs and Eater X weren’t doing anything like that. They were deadpanning it as though the dog food was fine, gourmet cusine – pairing it with wine, the same as if they were tasting caviar or cheese. Besides, the act of eating dog food is not original. We’ve all tried it. Whether it’s by ourselves out of curiousity or in front of someone to get a laugh. Or at least something similarly ridiculous. . .that’s what happens when you get groups of guys together. We do silly crap! Eating dog food is not copycating anyone, since everyone has done it. It’s all in the execution.

    I dont think Lerman was ripped off by Conti & Janus. If anything the both of them copied that off of a honeymooners episode where Ralph concocts this mystery appetizer and feeds it to his boss only to find out it was dog food.

    this is don lerman again, I know it was shown on the jackie gleason show and good times and seinfeild , but i did it as a competitive eater first not as an apetizer but dumping 3-5 cans in a bowl and eating that slop. i ate alpo beaf 3 cans and 2 chicken it was heavy in gelitonand ground up bone meal i [plowed threw it like grant went thre richmond it wa bad , but no worse then my mothers cooking

  45. beautifulbrian said

    February 5, 2007 @ 3:22 pm

    Don did not approach me first and ask if i wanted to take his spot in Nathans in 2002 . The only think i remember him telling me was that he asked George if he could offer his spot to me which i knew nothing about and according to Don, George refused. I really don’t see the difference or where you are going with this but if its true it was a nice gesture.

    I like all the anonymous comments on what should have been done, what should be done, why certain people are wrong for doing certain things. What was done was; Lerman, Conti, and Janus built the sport of competitive eating. They brought and bring attention, fans, and growth to the sport by the amazing feats accomplished. The naysayers are the ones that should be eating the dog food. Woof Woof!

    I believ Kobayashi, Thomas, Kratchie, De Vito, Cookie, Badlands, Coondog, Boone, and Menchetti also added to the popularity. The difference was that they spoke with action. Koby, Thomas, Coondog, Boone, Crazy Legs, and Menchetti still do. Janus is great but he hasn’t been around long enough to be in the same class as those others. Seiken makes it lots of fun and is irreplaceble.

    Menchetti if that woman ate that many oysters I do not think too many people would have beaten her.

    BTW, one of the best lines from The Simpsons. . .When Bart’s dog, Santa’s Little Helper, runs away it causes Homer to reply:
    Crying won’t bring your dog back. Unless your tears smell like dog food. . .so you can sit there eating can after can of dog food until your tears smell enough like dog food to make your dog come back. . .or you can go out there and find your dog!
    (Bart exits)
    Homer: Rats. . .I almost had him eating dog food.

    GJoe thanks for the info on the eggs. I’d say you did admirable with two contests in one day. Those egg totals seem extremely good and I would have never believed an amateur eater could have eaten so many oysters in 2 minutes. I doubt there are too many pros who could have beaten her, perhaps just a handful.

    God job and thanks Joe! I do miss speedeat, whether I agree or disagree with your postings.
