I am  sure after the recent comments on eatfeces.com by Pat Philbin  regarding my use of the words "horrendous & gross, a befitting
form of punishment for me would be to burn in hell without an asbestos suit. Brian Subich and US Male received notification that pro
eaters in the IFOCE would not be allowed to compete in Wingbowl 2011. Now im hearing that George Shea is in discussion with
Angelo Cataldi about possibly allowing them to attempt their stunts which were scheduled for early next week. US Male was scheduled
to eat some quarter pounders with bacon while Subich was slated to try and break Male Canoli record of 21 which he consumed to
win the title back in Sept

Today is a special day for me . My mothers birthday. She would have been 80yrs old  . She passed away on  Jan 21  1990 a day in which i will never forget. On
another note, i would like to take the time to mention Sonya the black widow Thomas. There are alot of female wannabe eaters out there that came and went
faster than a speeding bullet. Stephanie Torres is one of the few that appears to show some real promise in the sport. . Some just want to draw attention to
themselves with fundraisers and other stuff but they can never make a splash in the big leagues. Sonya has proven over the years that not only can she rise to
the top as a female competitor but she can also wipe the floor with 95% of the top male competitors in the sport today. Always eats clean  and rarely  gives the
judges a reason to question her totals . Looking over some of the names on the roster for PB& Banana and i noticed Sonya will be there and that is not good
news for reigning champ Notorious B.O.B. Some new records will be established in Biloxi MS on Jan 8th which just happens to be a very special day devoted to
the King of Rock & Roll. Out of respect all the eaters competing that afternoon should stop eating after they reach sandwich #14 which is the most sandwiches
Elvis consumed in one sitting. However just like last year  these sandwiches will not be toasted due in part to an unnamed eater request that they use plain
white bread. Yuuuk. What amazes me even more is that last years champion has no input  in this decision  and whats even more sadder is that its completely
out of his hands.

US Male successfully completed his Wingbowl stunt at the WIP studio by consuming 4 McDonald's quarter pounder cheeseburgers with bacon in 2.55. To
everyone's surprise in the studio , he then pulled out a 5th burger and consumed that as well. However the 5th burger  was not counted in the actual  stunt.
Soon  after the Maleman completed his stunt,  El Wingador decided to come out of retirement for the umpteenth time and throw his hat into farcebowl once
again. Now the eating world awaits  the big Shea decision as to whether or not US male will get the ax. This entire scenario should be interesting. Brad Sciullo,
Takero Kobayashi,  John Squibb. Dale Boone? Furious Pete?  Does the name Joe Menchetti ring a bell? Menchetti is still bitter over the fact that he consumed
10 big macs in 20 min back in 2004 only to be told his services are not needed. This will be a battle to the bone !
Dec 8
Now that US Male completed his wingbowl stunt, the hit counter on IFOCE.com website must have reached record proportions considering how
many times US Male and Brian Subich must have checked the rankings page to see if US Male is still there or if that spot has been occupied by
Nasty Nate. Would not surprise me one bit if US male is not removed from the rankings. IFOCE likes to play spin doctor at times if you get my drift.   
There is an ARTICLE i found on Philly.com discussing farcebowl and i couldn't help but laugh when reading "the contest has grown into a major
spectacle at times garnering national media attention" . Thats funny because most of the people i speak to here in NY    never even heard of it and
these are people that are up on all the latest news events including competitive eating.  Sure its big in Philly and it might get a brief mention or two
in NY papers like Daily News and Post, but nothing more than a small caption with a few sentences at best.. On two separate occasions after failing
two separate eating stunts, i was invited as a spectator and both times declined. If memory serves me correct i was even asked to be if  part of
someones entourage and i passed on that also. Brian Subich mentioned something to me about being part of Brad Sciullo entourage. Nice gesture
but i have to think about it considering that i would need to miss two days from work in order to make that sacrifice

After viewing the EL WINGADOR   coming out of retirement video on youtube one has to wonder if this entire thing about not letting major
league eaters in wingbowl is all a bunch of bullshit. If George Shea and MLE were not in the picture then why is Angelo constantly
mentioning them in the interview? I predict Joey Chestnut and the boys will be back again for another snoozer so stop checking the
IFOCE rankings because US Male aint going nowhere.  How many times have we heard Wingador announce  his un retirement over the
last 6yrs. Cant help but notice the similarities between Angelo/Wingador and  George Shea/ Krachie . The old timers in the sport would
understand what i meant by drawing that comparison. The only difference being Krachie walked away from competitive eating entirely.
Aside from Angelo , are we supposed to be believe  that Wingador is going to eat between 280 & 300 wings just because he was still
hungry after  consuming  two pizza steaks(what is that?) and a  pizza pie in 15 min? Wingador claims to be training very hard for this
contest but so is US Male. Male claims that when contest time roles around he will be in tip top condition.Matter of fact a video featuring
some of his training techniques will be making its way to the tube very soon compliments of yours truly.

Pat Bertoletti is a true class act and an avid visitor of this site. I was also informed by Ron Koch that at a recent  IFOCE event , Pat and Erik the Red
were  the first ones to come over and shake his hand. See its all about upbringing and respect. Some people just dont have that regardless of age
because either the parents never instilled it in them or they just dont care. BTW Pat listened to my entire three part podcast and enjoyed it immensely .
If some of you think that im the only one that has a problem with OJ Rifkin and eatfeces , think again. It appears that Stephanie Wu has been put on the
same iggy list as yours truly for reasons beyond her. It seems that on Nov 11 Stephanies
TWITTER  reported a hot dog contest which was scheduled to
take place this weekend. OJ Rifkin decided to wait till the last minute to
REPORT it  hoping to find another source other than Stephanie's twitter and he
did. What a lowlife scumbag to the first degree by refusing to give her twitter page the credit for reporting it first. He pulled the same shit  with the
cheese steak contest tomorrow in Corona. This just proves my point as to what a jerkoff this person truly is. Stephanie must have did something to
inadvertently piss him off in his distorted mind and now chooses to place her on his shit list same way he did to me . Let it go Steph for the more
attention you give this anonymous weirdo the more he gets a thrill out of continuing doing what he's doing . The verbal hatred  between Brian Subich &
US Male has gotten to the point where the both of them are trading insults like 12yr olds. What makes this so interesting is the fact that Brian works with
children that have behavior problems. What would happen if the parents of one of his students just happened to stumble upon some of their verbal
exchanges on facebook? Might pull the kid out of his class immediately. As for US Male you cant reason with him so forget that one.Not only is  Subich
hoping that US Male fails miserably in Wingbowl but makes it his daily biz to  check the IFOCE ranking page at least 5 times per day hoping that US
Male name is removed.

Remember the name Johnnie Excel he will be eating at table near you very soon. John represents the other half of team  Torres Excel  and that
tandem  has been setting the world on fire with some of their eating conquests. Today Excel excelled one more time by not only defending his
cheesesteak title in Corona CA but setting a new record to boot! Check this out  5 2ft long cheesesteaks in 10 min. Ok so you are probably
saying to yourself yeah yeah another amateur that boasts big numbers but doesn't have the balls to compete against the big boys. Well guess
what  he's coming to the east coast in 2011 and yes he will make his debut with MLE very shortly. With the numbers he's putting up of late,.
IFOCE eaters realize this guy  is going to give the established eaters shit fits and cannot be taken lightly. To add insult to injury you might see his
'better" half  (just kidding)  i meant other half Stephanie Torres, at a table near you real soon
Dec 14
Please take a moment of prayer and silence  due to the passing of Brian Subich brother Nick . He died this morning . Thoughts
and prayers go out to the Subich family
Dec 15
Pat Bertoletti is no longer on standby for Biloxi MS PB& banana . Pat will be competing but Sean Flash Gordon is a
late scratch. As of now a spot has opened .

Wow eating fans you gotta check this out hot off the press compliments of  our anonymous administrator at eatfeces.com. More HATE SEIKEN COMMENTS  . Im
even thinking of blogging this on my latest update. Boy oh boy i must have really damaged this individuals reputation on my site at one time or another for him to
respond this way. The text has this sort of passive laid back approach which ive been accustomed to reading during the last year or so. Its the same person over
and over again  that tries to use past discrepancies between myself and other members of the IFOCE to strengthen his warped  case against me in the  hope
that it will deter others from visiting this website. What the fuck is this asshole talking about when he accuses me of embarrassing and attacking other IFOCE
members that have been in the organization longer than 6 months? I even went as far as listing all 50 IFOCE members on eatfeces pointing out which ones i
dislike and which ones i admire. That wasnt good enough. Instead  a rather weak comeback appears at 9:34pm ignoring what i just posted claiming that ive done
"everything" except threaten someones life.   I have a huge problem with the word "everything" . Is that supposed to mean im a child molester, rapist, murderer ,
convicted stalker, pedophile etc etc? Wow this sad individual really needs some serious help in his obsession with me. . Notice how fast the anonymous ass
administrator posts a rebuttal as soon as a negative comment which supposedly originates from my IP address appears on his blog. Please please feel free to
address this issue on my blog and if i have ever slighted you in any way on this site  please post under your real name so we can copy and paste the comments
and send it to eatfeces. Many have suggested that i pay it no mind and move on but i still have a problem with that scenario. If you ignore they might go away
because it just kills them that they cant get you to respond  but on the flip side  without defending yourself it still leaves you wide open for skepticism. "Maybe
they are right about Seiken. I mean look he hasn't responded back to defend himself" Thats why i respond back at every oppotunity  instead of walking away.All
my life ive been taught when backed in the corner always attempt to fight back even if you are outnumbered  or they will get the last laugh in the long run.

According to Brian Subich  his older brother Nick died of a massive heart attack in his kitchen.. He was 52 yrs old  His death came without warning and
from what Brian told me, he appeared to be in pretty good health. What makes his death even more devastating is that he leaves behind his young
boys.  Then again i did not bother inquiring about his brothers overall lifestyle. Did he smoke, drink?  Was his BP and cholesterol monitored lately?   
When was his last EKG and stress test? . If everything checked out ok in those departments and still had the heart attack then that is totally messed up
. It basically spells out the fact that when you hit 50 look out! Mortality rate is right there with a 75 to 80yr old man.  Women dont necessarily fall into this
category. You rarely read about 50 yr old women dying of heart attacks .

Eating fans  as you know the Christmas holiday is approaching and of course it wouldnt be complete without listening to BB XMAS CD  which can be accessed
on this site. 10 holiday classics sung by yours truly,

Sonya Thomas latest UPDATE  she mentions the hardship and aggravation she entails when traveling to different states to compete.  .
From a personal standpoint if my airfare and hotel are not covered its a financial burden   unless there is a motive or some solid
reason as to why i should shell out the dough. . Some spoiled eaters (not sonya)  still find the need to bitch about something  even if
the sponsor is footing  all their  expenses. This could range from anything including  food preparation  or the unpaid entertainers that
take pleasure in performing for the audience. .I take pride in what i accomplish on stage and never expect a palm greasing in return.
Sonya also mentions her experience at Wingbowl 2004  in which she was attacked with anything ranging from beer bottles to used
tampons by the Philly fans . It was unfortunate that i was not able to compete in the 2004 Wingbowl after the promise that if i won or
finished second in the wingoff i would earn a spot at the table. I did finish second behind Don Lerman and did not receive that spot. If i
was to compete in Wingbowl that year , you would have gotten a first hand perspective along with  in depth coverage as to what exactly
transpired before and after the contest.  As fate had it,  Morganti and Cataldi just  had to have it their way  so its their loss.

Hope everyone had a joyous Christmas holiday. Brian Subich and family enjoyed their Xmas dinner while listening to my Holiday CD
featuring 11 Christmas classics. Thank you Brian.  The brutal snowstorm of 2010  has rocked NYC bigtime so far. This has a 2ft potential
and its really lived up to its expectations. US Male who lives about 2hrs away in NJ  says blizzards dont affect him one bit. He delivers the
mail in rain sleet snow and ice , His motto is dress for the weather and the mission goes on. Wow. US Male always delivers. Ed Cookie
Jarvis informed me last night that he was headed to Harrahs in AC today. Good luck big guy  whether you have front wheel , or all wheel
drive the roads are a total mess and will be getting much worse as the day progresses. I thought i was the first to obtain a Sonya Juliet
interview but ESPN beat me to it last summer during the Nathans finals in Coney. Some of you might have seen this
INTERVIEW  but for
me it was a first .  Remember Leon Justice Feingold  the phenom that shook up the world by winning Nathans qualifier in 1999 in
Oceanside NY?  Leon  was at one time  considered the apple of George Sheas eyes until he kept coming up with every excuse under the
sun as to why he couldn't make it to the next IFOCE event. Leon was a good guy but also one  of the most inconsistent eaters ive ever
met. You never knew which Justice Feingold would show up at the table. the world beater or the one that took the world  beating. Case in
point Feb 2004 vs Don Lerman in baked bean title rally. Leon got destroyed in 1:46  Lerman looked more like Mike Tyson in a  one sided
demolition of Marvis Frazier Although Leon and i tied for  third in corned beef in march of that year and came in second in French Fries
behind Ed Jarvis the following year, he  was never the same after the bean beating and ended up retiring for good a year or two later.
However Justice for all found a new career as a starting pitcher with the Rananna Express minor league baseball team  Check out the
VIDEO .  and most recently posed for Playgirl Magazine. Not a bad afterlife from competitive eating  huh? .

Hope everyone is gearin up for the New Year. The last thing i want is to be a party pooper but i really cant stand when people say  Oh next year is
going to be much better than this year. Its like the standard cliche.  Do you know how many times ive heard that comment during my 50 yrs on this
earth? Man i can go on and on.  1966 is going to be a great year . My mother gave birth to a still born daughter . 1968  is going to be a great
year. My grandmothers house burns down. In June  We had just moved out of her house a month prior.  We lost more troops in Vietnam. Robert
Kennedy  and Martin Luther King assassinated within months of each other and we ended up having to move from the neighborhood in fear of
rioting due to retaliation from the King assassination.  1977 is going to be a great year. Elvis dies in august  my moms youngest  sister dies two
months prior and Tom Seaver is traded to the Cinn Reds for four nobodies. 1978 is going to be a great year. I nearly got killed in a vicious
altercation trying to break up a fight  that occured while working a disco nighclub in Bayridge Bklyn.   1987 is going to be a great year. My dad
loses two older sisters within a month of each other  1988 is going to be a great year. My mother diagnosed with Cancer  I went through a bitter
divorce still cant shake the absentee dad tag which im always being constantly reminded of. I guess like father like son. Thats another story in
itself id rather not rehash. 1980 is going to be a great year. John Lennon murdered just before the new year my grandmother diagnosed with
dementia which progressed to early stages of  alzheimers.  1982 is going to be a great year. My grandmother passes away. 1990 is going to be a
great year. My mother passed away.  1992 is going to be a great year . My dad passes away. Some minor setbacks. in 1999 and 2000  The Jets
advance to the AFC conference finals only to lose to Denver. Mets destroyed by the Yanks in the WS one year later. 2001 is going to be a great
year. I get thrown out of the glutton bowl and 911 changes the course of history. 2005 is going to be a great year. My moms oldest sister dies in
April.  One year later my moms second oldest sister dies.  I get layed off from my court officer position with  the criminal justice system . Just the tip
of the iceberg i dont want to rehash other years.  Dont get me wrong there have been some good years but more bad than good. Ive dealt with
alot of negativity which explains the negative attitude.  So shall we look forward to a good one in 2011?  Wait and see
