What amazes me is the fact that out of all the ranked eaters in the ifoce, the only thing that concerns you is where I’m placed regardless of whether I move up or down. Just happy to be part of a great organization. I just have to work on making myself a better competitor

Moving conti down three spots which is a first, had to be the hardest decision the Shea have made in years
anonymous said
December 23, 2013 @ 10:24 pm

50th at what and against whom? LA Beast could eat him under the table

Booker was a great eater during his heyday. Like a ballplayer consistently putting up 35 to 40 homeruns every year consecutively. All great eaters need to step aside and let the newbies get their shot. On any given day Booker can still hold his own against the best

You know these rankings are a joke when Wild Bill is ranked ahead of Brian Dudzinski, Jon Bello Bryan Beard and Nate Biller

Seiken should also thank Barlow, LA Beast and Edible for leaving MLE or he’d be ranked 54 along with Garbage Gut Glum.

You fail to understand how the ranking system works Its not about filling a vacant space. . If MLE wants to keep you in the rankings regardless of where you are placed, it doesnt matter who left and who didn’t.

Wild Bill and Brian are both fine eaters!

Wild Bill vs Seiken is a mismatch. Seiken would blow him out of the water.27? Talk about blow. He must have blew someone to move up 10 spots
anonymous said
December 24, 2013 @ 6:23 pm
Maybe if Seiken blew someone, he’d move back to 48.

Thanks OJ. I would have been up all night wondering about those results.

It appears that Bill owns the rivalry but Brian got his licks in a few times. You make it seem as though the man can’t eat at all when its self evident he can put up some numbers when he feels like it

Brian Seiken will never be any more of an eater than he is now because of his age. He never pushes himself and never will. He never trained and to start now would be like gastrointestinal suicide. Wild Bill just does his thing, he enjoys it and is content no matter how he does. Seiken should chill out and just enjoy CE as a hobby, while it lasts.

I rarely agree with critical points about my eating ability posted on this site which exhibits negativity because its usually presented in a mean and hateful fashion. 1201 is probably right on the money with his analysis . I disagree on one point . I did train somewhat diligently in 2004 when i sort of peaked. When the new kids starting taking over in 2005 i began to give up on training and making myself a better eater. I concentrated too much on the website. I want to give it one last try . I think everyone deserves a chance to walk away with dignity. I would like to prove to the world that age might be just a number when it comes to comp eating but its a tall order

Wild Bill cannot eat his way out of a paper bag . Look at the results 8th 11th 14th .10th Not one 1st place victory in 7yrs of competition. Finishing a few spots in front of poorly ranked eaters is nothing to toot the horn over . I doubt he could even hang with all pro eating . I think the 27 ranking is MLE paying him back for all the cash he invested to compete 6yrs ago with nothing to show for it

Wild Bill’s showing in Boston was cause enough for his jump in general. Rankings are never done by stats the way OJ shows us head to head and such. Plus there is always some relative choice. If you are a pain in the butt versus someone who is reasonable, that surely pops into peoples minds. The complainers are often jealous and filled with excuses. If you are kidding yourself about your abilities, that’s on you. Making claims instead of doing and showing makes it worse when you do not deliver.

235 you make a few valid points but let’s not kid one another. Wild Bill is ranked 27 for other reasons besides eating ability

One thing you have to credit MLE for is having a keen sense for selfish people that only care about bringing attention to themself . One of those kind was thrown out of the organization and dumped from the rankings because he put his own selfish needs first instead of thinking about his organization. Major League eating and the world will be a better place without him. Goodbye good riddance

No one really knows except the person themselves and MLE why someone left. Unless the person comes on here under their own name and writes this information, it is all just the usual hot air.

Maybe the LA Beast should break his silence instead of not responding to his fans on FB and Youtube. He thinks he’s some sort of big shot so he doesnt have to respond back to others. Like the time he thought he was making some sort of guest appearance at 3 man burger challenge in NJ with a quarter of stick of gum in his mouth that could have easily made its way into the burger . Nobody knew who he was or gave a crap. Beast in the future have some common courtesy when others ask where Hoboken pizza is instead of not responding. Its downright rude

Dec 26 213 just listen to how retarded you sound. For someone that supposedly sounds like they had some kind of formal education , why should someone care one way or another if they are moved up in a ranking that promotes gluttony, which in turn leads to all sorts of diseases such as cancer, diabetes , inflammatory disease, heart disease , etc etc. One thing to come off as intelligent but in your case you are nothing more than a hypocritical moron
