Competitive eating cracks me up

I love it. They're announcing all the competitors and telling bits about them, such as "So and so is a burrito specialist, and holds titles in matzo balls and reindeer sausage."

They're gearing up for the annual 4th of July hot dog eating contest. The big news this year is that the favorite, Kobayashi, has some sort of jaw injury. Will he win? Or will his injury cost him the championship? That is yet to be decided, folks.

As an aside, I find it ridiculously unfair that some of these people weigh 105 pounds, etc. If your job is to stuff as much food in your mouth as fast as possible it only makes sense that you should be larger than those of us who actually watch what we eat. But I digress.
