    Noone to blame but yourself. You should not have attracted attention and kept your mouth shut

    DUH!

    It’s all about attracting attention! And exposing it for what it really is.

    I will never eat in a Nathan’s Qualifier, unless I could do so without signing an IFOCE/MLE contract. Then I might, just as I would any event.

    How can anyone sign away control of their eating hobby to anyone who guarantees them nothing. If an IFOCE/MLE contract came with a guaranteed salary or benefits at least, someone might be enticed to sign.
    But, that’s not the case. The IFOCE/MLE contract guarantees you nothing. Entry into events – not even guaranteed.

    I love being banned!
    Don’t ever forget it…. I’m an AICE guy. We represent what’s good about competitive eating.

    There’s another blog entry coming soon… and more attention to be gained.

    “…more attention to be gained.”

    Whose attention? No one cares.

    You’re trying to spin this thing like you don’t care that you got kicked out. But you do care. We can tell.

    Boy King you are right where you should be. It is good that you are happy where you are. Long live the AICE and long live the IFOCE. Different strokes for different folks.

    If you really thought you could win any of the qualifiers you would not have laughed this off as a publicity stunt for your organization. Why don’t you admit it .

    Actually I made it pretty clear I didn’t think I would or could win a qualifier….. but there are folks from AICE who could.

    I’m just the one sending the message.
