What am I missing ?
Maybe it was a pre-race carbo-loading party?
heh.
Let's face it - eating is more fun than doing lactate threshold intervals.
I don't get the broadcasting part though, watching people eat, especially gobs of gooey, sloppy food is disgusting.
I don't mind watching Jennifer Beals eating lobster however. :)

That's nothing... I saw some kid driving down the road with a Livestrong armband. The only reason I saw it was because he was holding his hand out the window flicking the ashes off his cigarette...
ESPN....Everything Sports Network maybe?? Never really thought about it. I also heard about that lets get fat contest on TV...whatever. Just goes to show that money talks and the media will sell its soul to the highest bidder. They show what sells so I guess that tells you something about the normal audience on there.

ESPN ... an abbreviation of Entertainment and Sports Programming Network.
You gotta love America. i mean aren't there people starving all over the world and we are just shoveling it in our faces.
I remember when ESPN first came on the air there wasnt a whole lot of sports to cover 24/7 of programing so you got alot of strange stuff...hmmm everything old is new again I guess.

The views out over the water were breathtaking (or was that the incline of the bridge) .. well whatever...
I just know I was out of breath...

I remember when ESPN first popped up on cable.
They had Rodeo, Austrailian rules football, pool, soccer, and any other non major,(at the time)
sporting event you could think of.
Yeah MTV played music videos too.
'Nothing to it, but to do it!'
I saw that eting competition... the only reason I saw it was because it was on... in a restraunt I was eating in. good way to lose the appetite.
Life is short. Play hard and get dirty doing it.

What am I missing ?
So, I was staying in a hotel this weekend. Had a race in Charleston. Laying in bed I was flipping through the channels. I land on ESPN. I could be a moron because I don't know what ESPN stands for. I am sure it is Sports Network and some thing else. But from the program I am confused. I don't really watch ESPN. I figure this channel will broadcast sporting events. Is ESPN the qualifier of what a sport is ? If it is I have figured out why America is getting F A T with a capital F.
Maybe I had hit the GU bong a little hard. Although my eyes did not deceive me. I find on ESPN a competition with a group of people stuffing their faces full of 1000's of calories in some anti-acid sponsored EATING competition. Am I really seeing one of them wearing a Livestrong armband ? That's living strong and ESPN is a complete farce. I can not believe they don't even show one cycling event a year and maybe just maybe they will have a triathlon. A food eating competition though. Prime time baby. Prime rib. Prime time. Fat people unite. You have ESPN. :rolleyes:
and this is funny
