Anti-Gay Radio Host Advocates Firing Gay Employees
UK Zookeeper Dies From Tiger Attack Injuries
In life-just-isn't-fair news, Jorge Cruz, a Washington Heights man, won a prize package worth more than $4,000 after sitting on his rump at the ESPN Zone for 48 hours, 15 minutes and 1 second. During the time he ate free food and watched TV. The limitations? He could only go to the bathroom every eight hours and wasn't allowed to fall asleep.
Please. What Cruz and ESPN Zone officials call the Ultimate Couch Potato competition, we call a typical weekend.
To prepare, Cruz researched the sport of competitive sitting and learned to avoid caffeine and drink very little water. After gaining real-life experience, Cruz said he'd be bringing a toothbrush next year.
He may also want to bring a box of tissues because he'll be crying rivers after we beat him. Burn!

Howard, you are a puke. Plain and simple. WHat gives you the right to blast this guy for his weight? What are you, some scrawny 140 pound pecker smoker? Not all larger people are as worried about their size as you and so many other of your type may think. I am a larger guy and it doesn't bother me in the least. I can still outrun most skinny people, lift more weight than most, and believe me, I could kick ass with the best of them. Don't sit back so damned smug, you skinny little freak. Large has its place in this world too, and if you don't like it, then go masturbate with some more of your scrawny girly buddies.

What's the matter Howard? Jealous that you didn't win the prize? No one likes a sore loser. I think this guy did good for himself winning a prize for best coach potato. How cool is that. I wonder what other types of competitions there are out in the world we have never heard of?

Howard - Your comment is both prejudiced and ignorant! Mr. Cruz is currently employed as a Public Affairs Assistant in NY.
Private - Your comment is both racist and prejudiced!
Basically, you both need to look inwards to determine why you have these feelings, as well as the need to share them publically.

He'd better save that money and a lot more. Someday very soon he'll be sitting in a hospital emergency ward for 48 hours and longer with complications caused by heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder), and a myriad of other problems that his eating habits and sedentary life style will inevitably engender.

Yep! And that is what he will be doing. Sitting! And waiting! And waiting! And sitting! Waiting for a doctor to maybe see him before he dies, maybe not see him till after he dies. Since "pro" is the opposite of "con" then what is the opposite of progress? Could it be, congress?

you know whats really funny, he's a typical american these days. will choke on his own neck fat by the time he reaches 40. feel sorry for who ever has to take care and feed him. he's one of those guys you see in the grocery store, riding a scooter , then goes out to his car, parked in a handicapped space because of his "disability". pathetic.

Wish I knew about this contest - I would have won hands down. I do this daily. All I do is drink beer and watch TV, DVD's or listen to musical DVD's or CD's. I get up to answer the door after I order out; usually Asian food. Oh, I also write on my laptop which sits on my military foot locker, which I have converted into a treasure chest cocktail table, black with gold around the metal edging. I did this many years ago; now I do nothing but what I mentioned. I get up about 11:00 PM to go to bed where I watch TV until I go to sleep and I sleep well. I take sponge baths but do not have a shower even though my home is lovely.
My super market brings my groceries, enough to cook, when I decide to do that.
I also blog a lot and visit the doctor once in awhile and am healthy (physically). Otherwise, my pleasure in life is just sitting on the couch and drinking. I only drink beer, about a case a day which is stored and/or delivered. I am 68 and I'm impotent, so I don't need a woman. I'm content to sit until I die.

HOWARD BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES BECAUSE I WAS LAUGHING AT HIM SO HARD. I CAN JUST PICTURE HIM SPITTING AS HE TALKS BECAUSE THIS REALLY PISSED HIM OFF SO MUCH. HE HAS TO BE A MISERABLE PERSON AND HATRED FILLED LIKE SATAN. HE NEEDS TO JOIN A CHURCH----GET SAVED-----GET BAPTIZED---- AND DISCOVER THE LOVE JESUS GIVES TO US ALL THAT FOLLOW THE BIBLE. SATAN IS LEADING MOST PEOPLE TO HELL WITH HIM BUT THERE IS HOPE AND IT IS CALLED THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST.
