    Hot dogs? Against Chestnut!? There better be some special stipulations!

    Will they be Nathans hot dogs and how much compensation will the Sheas get? I’m sure Chestnut got permission to do this. He does not want to end up like Koby. In fact, one can conceive the Sheas set this whole thing up and will give Chestnut a small stipend while they keep a huge finders fee, managers fee, promoters fee and advertising fee.

    That’s a great opportunity for Joey and MLE. Later they could set up an angle based on size using Sonya or Juliet, or even Eater X.

    Opportunities abound but usually only for the top two, four, six. Permission? Get a grip. Joey says he is making…….fill in the blanks. Of course the Sheas marketed this or they contacted them. Koby was always disadvantaged because of not speaking English. In the end, perhaps he has outfoxed the foxes. The whole den could benefit. Carpe diem.

    Half of the stuff you post is basically irrelevant especially Joey chestnut podcasts. There are no comments because nobody cares what he has to say. Forgive my ignorance Rhonda but how is Joeys appearance with Shaq going to help alot of people? . I have heard this bullshit before about top ranked eaters doing promotions that in the long run will help everyone? The only pockets that get filled are the sheas joey and maybe sonya. Nobody else gets a dime. The whole thing is a joke and if took Kobe to open everyones eyes, Remove yourself from the rankings before you spend more money flying all over the place for nothing

    Koby was/is stupid! He gave up upwards of $20,000 for not competing in the biggest eating event of the year for temporary freedom? What freedom? He will resign his ifoce contract. He is one stupid MF!

    It would be better if the lovely Juliet Lee competed.

    Do I wish I was there, Heck, yes…but, .Joey deserves all the publicity he gets…outeat him, and maybe you can go mano a mano versus Lebron. Why do we bother? It’s fun, filling, and a great source of fiber
