    David Solomon will be added to the list. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

    Thanks for the mention WB! But I don’t think I am Top-25 worthy just yet. I am looking at 2011 as my real Rookie year since I had such a late start last year.

    You know that the results will be skewed toward Dale Boone. The poll will be meaningless, just a joke after you put all that time in it.

    I think only OJ should do OJ’s own top 25/50 poll. So theres no if, ans, or buts about it.

    If both were possible to be done, that could be interesting, kind of like the statistician versus the popular vote. Still find the number of votes for Dale Boone for male competitive eater of 2010 to be very curious. Assume that only one vote for him from one IP address is recorded. Even so, it is hard to imagine that he has that many votes and friends. He really doesn’t complete much for starters and isn’t even in the US full time.

    Why? You may as well ask a monkey for his opinion.

    Why? Well, Anony 11:22, you have given yours.
