...Bobby effing Flay. who the hell does he think he is?! he does NOT deserve to be an Iron Chef. he's so full of himself.

and his show! what the hell. why would u set out to beat people who specialize in certain foods? if he wins, the loser probably feels like shit since he SPECIALIZE and make that food his entire life.

it seems a lot of my friends feel the same way.

-- was watching food network and his assface showed up.

he's actually the only chef I can stand because of his attitude. IMHO, I really like his show because its not everyday where you get to go up against a top chef and even if I thought I had a winning dish, I would have no problem going up against him for fun. I've seen a few episodes where he actually loses the throwdowns but I think its all in fun. Plus you never know, the people that are challenged by Bobby Flay may get picked up at some fancy restaurant because of their tv time.


I understand where you get the impression that he's a self centered bastard though.

IMO, Bobby Flay is the biggest asshole on the Food Network. I can't stand his attitude and decline to watch any show with him in it, even if he's just a guest.

Alton Brown FTMFW yo!

Your sig is hilarious. Could you explain it?

Bobby Flay definitely is nothing more than an asshat who slept with the ugliest producer on the Food Network. Boy meets grill was retarded. I've yet to see anything he's done that makes him worthy of being on the food network. Anthony Bourdain from the Travel Channel and occassionally Food Network is by the far the best.

Bobby Flay is an asshole. Anyone see the episodes when he loses, he complains and moans about everything? diners dineins and dives is the best show. But nothing beats andrew zimmern bizarre foods on travel network!

His restaurants are pretty weak too. I've eaten at all of them. Chintzy, overpriced pretentious food.

I like Bobby Flay. I think he's entertaining

Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives is a must-watch for me. I'm a closet Food Network junkie .
