The Most American Thing Possible




(note: the above picture is not Anti-American. You'll notice that the upside down flag has an "X" through it, therefore it logically follows that he is protesting the upside down flag, and not the rightside up flag. Ergo, this is patriotic.)

Happy 4th of July everyone. I hope your celebrations of America can be nearly as stereotypical as this one.

How Could You, Crazy Legs Conti??




By: T.R. Slyder, TRSlyder@yahoo.com, @AndyDisco on Twitter


There is a conspiracy theory that calls into question the legitimacy of Crazy Legs Conti's achievements in competitive eating.

It's awesome/fucking terrible.

You'd think you could trust someone named Crazy Legs.

Suggestion to Improve the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest
















By: T.R. Slyder, TRSlyder@yahoo.com

The pregame introductions at the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest are the best introductions in sports- whimsical, entertaining, and mildly educational. The antithesis of this is the introductions at professional soccer matches, especially in Europe, where the players walk out holding hands with children, then exchange flags, and a bunch of other pomp and circumstance that reminds me of the introductions on Iron Chef.

Soccer just needs to abandon all that foolywang, but I think the hot dog eating competition intros would be even funnier if they came holding holding hands with random Coney Island kids during the introductions as seen below.
