    How much water did Chestnut guzzle down his throat just minutes before the contest ? Take their steroid juice H2o away from him and a few others and lets watch their superpowers put up those outrageous numbers.

    Steve and Dee Martin ate more than Alex Perez, yet neither is ranked in MLE (whose link when you do a google search does not show). Alex is ranked 44. Hmmmm…

    Seiken will be bumped up to 39 after MLE wises up and dump some of the third rate eaters that either rarely compete or would get their asses handed to them if they faced him one on one in competition

    I will certainly lose a ton of sleep tonight knowing that Steve and Dee Martin are not ranked in MLE I would place a phone call in the wee hrs of the morning to Sam or George and demand some sort of explanation on that matter

    @8:07, try and think your comments out before you make them. Everyone and every contest allows water or other liquids to drink. It does help for speed but it also reduces the risk of choking. Take it away and all the numbers would go down and the winning results would still be the same.

    Jam Josh I will not think out my comments I will make whatever comment I please if you don’t like them I dare you to try and do something about it. I think you talking is like a meaningless piece of trash on the side of the road. You have no right no power no authority no nothing to suggest anyone do anything.

    Jam Josh IFOCE does not condone water training . They wont throw you out of the organization but the certainly wont endorse it . They cant pull the container of water away from Joey while he chugs it down in the back of the tent because he is their bread and butter and his numbers do wonders for their business Their attitude with him or any other high ranked eater is like them walking in on Joey in the middle of a water chug , turning their back and saying i dont want to see it but do whatever you have to do to eat 69 hot dogs or more Kapeesh?

    Of course lets see the skinny big shots like Rodriguez who flexes his guns on television for attention try and put up 32 hot dogs without his trusty 3 gallon water bottle . All the top ranked eaters train with water because it wont cost you a dime to stretch your stomach . Most are too cheap to buy the food to train with or even too cheap to buy gatorade

    “Seiken will be bumped up to 39 after MLE wises up and dump some of the third rate eaters that either rarely compete or would get their asses handed to them if they faced him one on one in competition”

    I agree that Seiken should be ranked a little higher. He may not be the eater he was in his prime, but he’s no scrub either. Still, right now he is ranked 50th in the world. Here is some perspective: there were 7.042 billion people in the world as of 2012. If he is the 50th best eater in the world, that means he is a better eater than 99.999999% of the world’s population. This is not sarcasm.

    no matter how high Seiken is raised in the rankings, He will always place dead last in the few contests he participates in. Notice I didn’t say compete. He doesn’t have a competitive bone in his body. He gives up after the first 2 minutes when he hits his wall which is why he will never be anything more than he is now, either in competitive eating or in life. He belongs in the game. Every league needs a token clown or jester we can all laugh at when he bombs in a contest or challenge, posts attention seeking videos in jealousy of successful videos put out by others, and when he complains about who ignored him at an event or defriended him on FB. This is not sarcasm.

    From Sonya’s site, and it gives me goosebumps:

    One thing about me, is that I respect those competitive eaters who came before me., without whom my emergence as a fairly well known competitive eater would not be possible. This includes, but is not all encompassing of, Takeru “The Tsunami” Kobayashi, “Hungry” Charles Hardy, Ed “Cookie” Jarvis, and Eric “Badlands” Booker. These names are from my roots. And no one person has given me more coverage through the years than “Beautiful” Brian Seiken.

    The best advice I can give newcomers to competitive eating is to remember the legends, upon whose shoulders competitive eating has become what it is today. It is not only my privilege, but also my duty, to always remember that. You never know where you are unless and until you know where you’ve been, and I’ve been very, very fortunate.

    Great stuff the spoiled newcomers like Sudo for example that only care about themselves could care less about the eaters that were there from the beginning Maybe two exceptions Booker and Lefevre who she buddy up to

    Plain truth you are a jealous piece of filth and i know who you are but this time because i am in a good mood il refrain from divulging your name First two minutes when he hits the wall? What the hell are you talking about ? Attention seeking videos? So far the only attention seeking videos that i have noticed is two fat losers that were thrown out of the IFOCE. In their mind these so called entertaining videos are purely for attention and because they were tossed out of the IFOCE they need some vehicle anything so someone out there will pay attention to them. Burger King reviews 5000 calories of bacon? 50 yr old Pepsi guzzles and then the moron weak attempt at humor “Oh i think i have to go to the hospital” Ill bet hes not joking about going to the hospital after what happened recently when someone almost died of brain posion. Lets see what happens when he really gets sick and is transported to the ICU unit which is a far cry from stubbing your toe and going to ER. The only one im laughing at right now is you when you refer to a videos that are “successful ” when in reality they are stupid bring nothing to the table as far as entertainment and plain BORING Shall i go on ?

    The thing I hate about eatfeats is “anonymous.” You all make Competitive Eating and its followers seem like whiny, hateful, petty babies. I wish this site would filter out all the hateful, off-topic comments so the (one or two of you out there who keep posting stupid f-ing crap) don’t ruin it for everyone. You people just make yourself look immensely stupid. Are your lives that boring and worthless that you have to tear others down and make wild accusations on a daily basis?

    I agree but if you think Seiken life is boring and worthless , the same two assholes that take pride in insulting him every day are just as boring and worthless or else they would ignore him. The two fuckers just have to get the last word in like little elementary school bitches

    but you see the stupid comments are not stupid . They have a function and the function is to entertain and to make as many people laugh as possible

    If the comments were funny and clever they would be entertaining. Unfortunately they’re neither. I don’t know why intelligent people like Rhonda or Rich (and a few other sensible posters) even bother trying to make this an interesting and informative discussion site when certain haters make it their mission to take over every thread with hate and lies.

    Seiken rarely instigates the comments its always Goldstein from LI chiming in about ass odors and roaches He has no life and to everyone surprise hes been posting here since eatfeats started in 2005

    I also enjoy reading Erik Denmark’s very well-thought-out posts also. He is usually very positive, which is something most competitive eating blogs sorely need.

    Unfortunately, I find that sometimes, I allow myself to get drawn in to verbal mud-slinging, and ETR has pointed that out once or twice, and I deserved the slap on the wrist from him and anyone else who I was negative toward.

    To each his own, but when I behave in accordance with the adage, “if you can’t say something positive, don’t say anything at all,” I can sleep better at night.
