2009: Kobayashi's Revenge... He won't even need a dog-off.

I'm rooting for Joey and all, but it's hard to keep a champ like Kobayashi down.

Then again, it's also hard to keep down 60 hot dogs down, so who knows?

Don't think Kobayashi was 100% last year, and he still came close.

Exactly... which is why I'm picking him for this year.

Anyone know if there are actual odds on this out there anywhere?

Guarantee there are, probably have to go to vegas though, because the government is cracking down HARD on online sites.
