OT: Joey Chestnut Or TB12 is GOAT?

[supafly]

IMO these type of contests illustrate some major issues with our country.. or proves the spirit of PT Barnum is alive and well.

Still trying to reconcile what can be good or positive about something like this.. as they carry Chestnut out on a float .. watching a guy choke with his eyes watering while he stuffs hot dogs down his throat is bizarre if not idiotic...

On other NFL fan sites, posters talk about J Chestnut being hungrier for championchips.

It's all about maintaining that hunger.

A lighter side of you, live from the rust belt. Nice.

Rumor has it that Cleveland offered two first round picks for him and BB turned them down.

C'mon--just the legend of Johnny Foxboro alone would get us a couple of firsts and a couple of seconds. Hell, some would throw JJ Watt in there, as well, because....the Bill O'Brien connection.

Just look to what Garoppolo will bring in as a starting point.

Let's see Chestnut come from behind 19 hotdogs down with 12 mins to go before we start annointing him GOAT.

Let's all celebrate gluttony... only in 'Merica...

Somehow this debacle is elevated to a "sport"....

Are fans of kobayashi more loyal to him than are fans of Joey chestnut?

You can't really call Chestnut the goat until he's been retired for like 10 years. Ya need that time to put all the rule changes and changes in meat processing into perspective.

I'm team Chestnut all day, but I think Kobi made things more interesting. I can't disagree with those who find it gross, though. It kinda is.

I think he'd choke away the win.
