Will the mustard yellow belt come back to America?

No. That skinny ******* is unbeatable.

I have a weird thing for Kobayashi. I think it's my raging crush on Ichiro (whooooooooo Toronto!) playing itself out.

I realize I can google "mustard yellow belt" and "Kobayashi" and figure out what y'all are talking about ... but meanwhile, allow me to reach for the bunny and pancakes.

Better rerach for a few pounds of Nathan's hot dogs instead.

Only Keyser Soze can beat Kobayashi... ;D

Ahhh .... got it.

Perhaps no American can beat him, but this Scotsman may:

"Get in my belly!"

Hell, he's liable to eat the pancakes as dessert and wipe his bum with the bunny.

 

[Hank_Scorpio]

Yep, red X's may be able to beat him.

:D

Televised eating contests are funny.
Competitive eaters breaking out cliches from other sports is downright hilarious.

"I'm just happy to be eating at the same table (as Kobayashi)."

The telecast two years ago was ****in' priceless.

I'm not sure who the color guy was, but when he intoned, "Ed 'Cookie' Jarvis is crestfallen ..."

Awesome. A self-contained spoof.

They oughta get Dodgeball's Cotton McKnight and Pepper Brooks to do this thing.

Looks like a two-man race between Kobayashi and the new guy, Chestnut.

Nobody else even close, four minutes in.

 

[imjustagirl2]

A good effort by Chestnut. But, well...it's Kobayashi!

World record!!!!

 

[Jesus_Muscatel]

Damn.

Kobayashi downs 54 hot dogs.

Joey Chestnut manages 52. Has looked like he was ready to puke for five minutes.

"What's in your mouth counts for the final tally, so they want to get it down."

 

[Del_B_Vista]

You eat 52 hot dogs in 12 minutes and lose?!?


Jeebus.

I liked the little Japanese lady's interview before the contest:

"I just want to swallow as much as I can."

 

[sportschick]

I'm going to have to go throw up now. 54 hotdogs :-X

 

[imjustagirl2]

My thing for Kobayashi takes a severe hit when he goes with the orange hair.

So, let's see .... The Total Sports Network can present us this irrelevant bull**** on Independence Day, but it can't be bothered to show its longtime July 4 staple --- Major League Baseball.

Somewhere, there's a group of ESPN managers who need to be repeatedly ass-raped with a 10-foot 2x4.
