This is one of the rare times where you and I will disagree I think. The Winter Olympics are for winter sports, not for summer sports masquerading as winter sports. I want more nations to compete at the Winter Olympics, but we shouldn’t have to ruin the games to achieve that. intoronto 1 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire.

There was a sports science episode made a while back on the anatomy, physical demand, and mental strength involved in competitive eating, and it was fascinating. phelps 1 “Sport has the power to change the world.

How many damages? It's not like they eat dozens of hotdogs at a time every day Quite often competitive eaters live like athletes. Which is why people are often surprised to find out they often aren't fat...at all. They get a huge amount of calories once every X weeks, but save some calories in between by dieting and training so that overall, they stay fit.
