    They threw Pete out because he used to have an eating disorder? That is such total bullshit. They make up lies all the time. He got thrown out because he was getting too big in the media and to add insult to injury they found out he wanted to join the ifoce or participate in Nathans. Thats the truth and nothing else.

    They knew about the anorexia from the very begining.

    I discussed it with Arnie weeks or months before Pete kicked my butt in meatballs.

    I brought it up as a concern, &/or to be careful.

    Arnie wasn’t the least bit concerned.

    After spending some time w/Pete, I no longer have concerns regarding a relapse.

    He has turned his severely unhealthy lifestyle 180 degrees into a supremely healthy one.

    While I think you can possibly argue he may still have body image issues, it obviously doesn’t affect him in a negative way.

    I’d be more than happy to look half as good as he does.

    Guys don’t you think this is getting old. If the IFOCE and AICE don’t want anything to do with you then move on. This is supposed to be an eating website and all you here about anymore is Pete and how nobody wants him, and now Will?. Joe you are an eater why they don’t want you is your buisiness. I’m sure there is enough local contests out there to keep you busy. In your case Pete it can get a little costly coming over from Canada, also didn’t you lose a team comp.

    Wouldn’t it be something if in a year or two Pete’s primary interest shifted from bodybuilding to competitive eating. A before and after pic would be very appropriate.

    I like this poster: “You should start a crusade and call out all the punks from AICE & IFOCE saying that they’re chicken shit and challenge them to a contest!”

    Pete would have his ass handed to him if he did so.

    You know why me and pete always come up? Because letting me and pete walk away was a really bad decision. Pete generates media attention because of his tremendous skills. Over the past 5 years I’ve been on national televison and have generated my own opportunities based on personality and was almost chosen for man vs food, without anyones help, as well as another reality show that I would have been featured on but had to drop out. You have two guys that will probably be your best ambassadors and you allienate both of them???
    I don’t care if you like me or not, but the facts are there.

    A think its true that most people in the I.F.O.C.E., along with Czerwinski, have an eating disorder. This just goes to show that the A.I.C.E. cares about its people and want to help them overcome this problem, where as the I.F.O.C.E. doesn’t care as much.

    1. I never wanted to rejoin AICE or APE. I simply maintained good terms with them, sent them a link to my doc trailer and that was the response I got.

    2. To the anon about all the Eating Disorder comments. If you had any knowledge on what an eating disorder was then you would rethink and rephrase your comments.

    3. I have no intention on ever competing in AICE/APE/IFOCE/MLE now or in the future, even if I was asked.

    Over and out.

    agreee with Pete. Eating disorder is nothing to joke about. It can destroy your intestines and your mind at the same time. Pete the IFOCE will never ask you to join so you need not worry. They have their eyes set on Wil and not you

    I dont think it’s as much of a loss as you think Will or the IFOCE would be banging down your door. The problem is people think they are more than what they are. Not saying that Aice wouldn’t take you back for whatever reason. Not saying you’re not a decent eater but I dont think you can hang with many of there eaters in a 8 min contest.All I’m saying is don’t build yourself more than what you are As for Pete not eating in any IFOCE, AICE, WLOCE contests thats on you.
    I dont think you have any problem accept mental. Sounds like you’re the type of guy that doesn’t get his way you take your ball and go home, don’t you think its time you grow up a little…

    Ok anon. Perhaps you might want to go back and read again. 1) I said that ifoce wasn’t banging down my door. 2) I also said that I’ve gotten exposure in the media on my own accord based on my personality. I didn’t say based on eating ability.
    If I was making myself bigger than I really am, I’d be talking about how great I am. I let other people hype themselves up. I only talk based on facts. If you’re talking about marketability, then I was at the top of the chain for ape. Look no further than the zans video on the newsday. They did interviews with everyone but half the video was my interview.
    Ifoce on the other hand has a lot of big personalities and I would be a small fish. If I didn’t realize that along with my lack of capacity, I would have tried to run to them a long time ago.
    But the truth is, APE needs me a lot more than I need them.
    If I’m ever back on reality tv again, which is a definite possibility, I’d think you would agree that arnie or more importantly coondog, dropped the ball by me not being one of their guys.
    But if they want to play these shenanigans and say its not about that, then more power to them, but I’m sorry, having marketable guys is key to being successful.
    KFC commercial is a good example. Instead of using all pro guys, kfc had to go with ian, arnie and 3 people that aren’t all pro guys. I guarantee you if I signed that contract I would have been in that commercial. And that’s not sour grapes because I don’t care that I wasn’t in it, but its a fact.

    Pete, anony 8:56 brings up a good point. If you bulld yourself up more than what you are you might be headed for a big dissapointment somewhere down the line. Things are going good for you now as far as media and monetary incentives but the well will run dry sooner or later so its not a good idea to say you dont need this organization or you dont need that. There might come a time when you might need an eating organization to fall back on unless you want to go back to just body building and screw the eating scene. Thats your choice my friend . Just dont get too greedy for it might backfire on your ass one of these days

    Anon 8:56 said something about Pete not eating in any “IFOCE, AICE, WLOCE contests”. Pete mentioned “AICE/APE/IFOCE/MLE” so he said nothing referring to WLOCE.

    I’m not saying you’re not a marketing tool right now but unless your capacity gets better, you will lose that. You keep saying you have no capacity, I seen a video of a pizza and read about the shake and burger you dont consider that any type of capacity. I look on here at the events and it seems like all I read is 6 8 and 10 min contests. Have you ever tried talking to aice about eating with them.

    I tried getting back in with them but Coondog has been handed the reigns, much to my chagrin, and has turned me down for reinstatement. So, like always, I will do my own thing and be happy either way.
