Hot Dog Eating Contest
When the fuck did eating become a sport?! I was watching that hot dog eating contest on ESPN 2 (don't ask me why) and they kept referring to the competitors as atheletes. They described Kobayashi (the 4 time defending champ) as the greatest athelete alive in any sport.
The guy set a new world record of 53 and a half hot dogs and buns. They said it was about 18 pounds of food. What frightens me is that the guy is 130 pounds himself. Apparently I have been living under a fucking rock, cause last I knew eating wasn't a sport. I ate dinner today, so I guess that qualifies me as a finely tuned athlete.
Personally I don't know what is worse. The fact that they consider this a sport, the fact that it was televised, or the fact that i actually watched it. It is 15 minutes of my life that I will never get back.

Way to get heated about if a hot dog contest participant is an athlete or not... I've heard heated debates about if cheerleading is a sport, but this is just one of those things that just make ya laugh.
