    I think the meaning of streak is consecutive appearances. Glad to see you back at the table Pat!

    Don’t count CLC out yet.

    According to Don Sturdy: “We also expect to see a surprise addition (or two) before it is said and done.”

    Either Joey Chestnut shouldn’t be on that list or Takeru Kobayashi should be in it.
