    I wonder if the Shredder will be there

    Shredder did a challenge with someone on MLE’s enemy list, The US Male and to add insult to injury, wore a Crif t-shirt. I highly doubt he will be there, or any other MLE event.

    How many media events was Shredder invited to? He was treated dearly by the Sheas and this is how he repays them? Doing a challenge with someone that practically told the Sheas to go F themselves? As far as the challenge its like hanging out with a kid that your mother gave strict instructions to stay away from. How dare the Shrurrder spit in George Shea face the way he did. How do you think that makes Cookie Jarvis feel? He has to answer to George Shea because he was responsible for bringing the shreeder into the IFOCE. I am disgusted and shocked

    I would love to see the Shredder compete in this contest because he is deserving of it and one fine competitor. Why all the anger towards this tenured competitive eater? Nevermind, I know why.

    I think shredder should do canoli. I dont see any reason why he would not

    The real canoli champ is US Male but they wont let him compete. Technically its not a contest without him

    I hope I see joe gavonne there. Got a sweet YouTube video idea for him which he has no choice if he wants to be in it or not. Hopefully you don’t punk out like a coward and not show. Can’t wait

    Like him or not Gavonne appears to be anything but a coward. You know when he does that wacko yelling shit at MLE events thats not a guy who is fearing much in fact does not seem as though he is in fear at all. One particular comp eater (now it seems maybe 2) is scared shitless of him which fuels his agenda. I don’t know him personally but that crazy yelling at MLE shows is off the charts YO.

    When you flag my comments and tattle tale to Facebook and get me banned you are being a little scared coward. You have public content on YouTube of you dressed up as Adolf hitler but when I post it to Facebook to let all the l.a. Beast fans see,you complain and get imy post removed. You are scared and a coward.

    Funny how seiken says he will be there only after I say I’m not.Now that is the true definition of a coward.In previous years when I said I was going he always came up with an excuse for not showing.I’ve said it before:That sad sack is the biggest liar & coward on this planet.

    Gavonne what in heavens name can yuo possibly do to me besides yell out a bunch of obsenities like a total jackass. You realize if you even attempt to make a move on me physically, its over for you.You want to be a white supremacist, curse out peoples families, call women whores, make fun of people health issues , go knock yourself out. I think you already ran into the wrong person and its not me. What were your intentions by contacting Ed Jarvis calling him a tumor boy, saying he sucked my c– and then asking him for my phone number? . Would you have the balls to repeat those very words to his face? I dont want to talk to a piece of filth like you . Not then not now not ever. You got bigger problems with other comp eaters beside myself. I suggest you stop before its gets real ugly with them. Good luck cause nobody is coming to your defense fool.

    I imitated Hitler as a goof & as a show of my acting ability(I was not ‘dressed up’ as him).I don’t care who sees it or likes it or not.I flagged your comment that called me a gambler & a child molester.If u got banned it was your own stupid fault for making those accusations.The only thing I am or ever was afraid of in this world r my sisters.

    2:29 Could not find the Hitler video but have you viewed this video where BB & Gavonne are talking to each other and appear to be human? The ending phrase by the “Great One” is priceless and may be the reason BB is still holding a grudge!

    Well isn’t this the perfect way to promote competitive eating. We have Beautiful Brian from MLE, LA Beast from MLE and Joe Gavonne from independence land fighting in the filty sandbox. Why don’t you three go and have a threesome boxing match and invite all of the other goons who do competitive eating. BB, how long did you last not commenting here? Not long. You just love to get into it with Gavonne, he is one step below you you think. I have never seen such immaturity in supposed grown-ups but keep doing a bang-up job promotion competitive eating?

    I think Gavonne would be better served if he was a coward. Self-preservation seems to mean very little to him, mentally, spiritually, emotionally, or mentally. Nothing good can become of his attitude and behavior, unless he learns a lesson from all of it, but at what cost?

    Is anyone interested in eating cannoli? Remember? It’s a contest, there is a sponsor, it is in New York. Maybe you goombahs have forgotten this. This is why the stand-up members of MLE do not comment on here often. You could get really good information shared if the immatures did not spend so much time trying to bully-up each other.

    I apologize to everyone. I told joe I had no problem with him and I hate causing trouble but he made some remarks about my girlfriend I don’t appreciate. From now on I won’t flood these posts with trash talk, although I seldom comment on here anyways. Just wait till he targets you and let’s see if you will sit back and take it.

    There you go “just wait till he targets you and see if you will sit back and take it” Some of you hypocrites are quick to judge and give dumb ass advice on this blog of all places , but when you become the victim things change When he becomes your problem then its a horse of a different color. Another point i want to bring out. Don’t put all three of us in the same sandbox. He stalked us and not the other way around.He has stalked others also I didnt know this guy from a hole in the wall nor did the Beast until i started getting some weird emails 4yrs ago paying compliments to me and my site. He starts out friendly then it gets ugly. I said i wasnt posting but i had to say something. Im sure the haters will just chime back and find something to say bad about me as usual .

    September 10, 2012 @ 7:19 pm

    I didn’t ‘target’ u or anyone-I joked around with u & u couldn’t take it.U got your friends-like that half-assed fruit Juan-to write horrible lies about me & told them to flag my YouTube videos & what did it get u?A lifetime ban from facebook.I warned u not to fuck with me u ignorant amateur.The real issue here is by letting dispicable monsters like Seiken & Strahle compete MLE shows the world that they have no moral standards whatsoever.Today it’s strippers & harassers,can’t wait to see what kind of criminals The Sheas put on a stage next.As long as they’re paying their own way they don’t care who they use.I am living proof of that!

    anony 332 you blame everyone except OJ Rifkin. If he didnt allow Gavonne to post we wouldnt have this problem to begin with Right?

    September 10, 2012 @ 7:32 pm

    But the fact that he bashed and attacked others in the past Beast doesn’t bother you? Oh, now that you got a taste you’re suddenly onboard.

    ha there he goes, targeting Juan now. What a fool. Oh yea, I saw you won a dorito eating contest by eating a bag of doritos. That is your only claim to fame in competitive eating. You are a loser.

    Frankly I agree with anony and would ban both Joe Gavonne and Beautiful Brian from commenting on here. Simple solution. LABeast has apologized and realizes it is simply not worth tangling with JG, he has issues, so does BB. Yes, same sandbox minus…..

    Time to make another off-topic rumpus room, then people who write crap there can be banned. Someone has to moderate here. How about the cannoli contest. Anyone? Anyone? This is not OJ’s fault but he could do more to keep some stuff away. Of course who knows what he does not print here. I guess it could be worse.

    It does bother me. I know what he has said about others and their families including others children. He’s been posting on my Facebook and YouTube for a while now and he’s not going to get away with it any longer.

    BURIED THE LEAD HERE. OJ ONCE AGAIN TELLS YOU THAT THE DATE IS LISTED DIFFERENTLY BY MLE AND BY SPONSOR. GET OUT OF THE SANDBOX YOU FRUITLOOPS.

    MLE has it’s head up it’s ass once again.The Sheas are so busy trying to cheat people they can’t get the date of their second most important contest right.If you are in IFOCE & not making big $ you should be ashamed & have your head examined.

    Come on Big Bite, likely this is mis-communication between the event itself and their calendar and MLE. They will get it straightened out and if you are an eater, you will know the correct date when you try to register. It is OJ who finds these details for everyone, so let’s thank him and stop the blame game.
