That is not a sport. I wish I had the powers to send this thread directly to the Pit where it can be torn apart by the lions.

No disrespect to you, Goodie, for reporting it. I know it was ESPN that decided it was a sport, not you. :)

NEW YORK (AP) -- Joey Chestnut chomped down a record 68 hot dogs, capturing his third straight July Fourth hot-dog eating contest at Coney Island, an annual showcase for flamboyant hot dogging contestants eager to show they really are what they eat.

Chestnut of San Jose, Calif., hoisted the American flag and then stood proudly like an Olympic athlete as The Star-Spangled Banner played following his 68 to 64½ dog victory over his archrival, six-time titleholder Takeru Kobayashi

If that's the definition of a sport...I wonder why ESPN chooses to air poker and spelling bees? :confused:
