A Good Career Move

Joey Chestnut won the Coney Island hot dog eating contest. There's nothing new here, though. He's won the last 12. What is interesting to me is that in the last 14 years he's earned over $800,000 stuffing dogs down his throat.

For any young people looking for work I'd say this is the career path to take.

Then Peter King at ESPN had to step in and ruin the fun with this tweet. Earth to Peter. Have these kids enter the contest.

ESPN and the franchise has done some really great docs and journalism. A shame that as at least a fifth of children in America go to bed hungry nightly they’re highlighting gluttony, treating someone who overeats excessively as a “competitive athlete.” Truly disgusting.
