    Retirees after May 2023

    I think the list is correct. Just change Oozora by Aozora (small typo) and that's it

    Ozumo at the Royal Albert Hall 2023

    Any more news about this?

    Heya location map?

    This is the link: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ySojrG7tKQ9iVZqL9?g_st=ic I think it’s not updated, and maybe there are some mistakes. I promise to solve them this new year

    Banzuke for Natsu 2022

    I've just realized that Sandanme has only 90 ranks this basho instead of 100. Has this happened before? I always thought that only the last two divisions had a non-fixed number of ranks

    The English commentators- views

    As sport commentator in Spain, I fully understand it. When I commentate curling I know that there are some people watching the sport who are experts in the sport and there are probably a lot of newbies who surely don't know even the most basic rules, and you have to talk to both groups at the same time. I'm sure that it happens the same with sumo and I think they do a great job

    Azumazeki beya folding

    Ok, thanks. I think I still need to learn a lot of things regarding oyakata

    Azumazeki beya folding

    Sorry, I don't understand this. Ushiomaru didn't reach this numbers but he could manage the heya. Why?
  8. I'm glad to announce the first and only sumo podcast in spanish ever. If you are able to understand the language or you want to learn some spanish or you just want to hear us talking about sumo, here you have an article in my website with all the available links to subscribe (Ivoox, Apple, Google, Spotify and Tunein). Although it's written in spanish, you can easily find the logos of every platform. Just click on your preferred. I have also opened a Twitch channel for talking about sumo (sometimes I play curling games too). We made our first live with the Natsu Basho banzuke analysis and I hope to make some other live events talking about some old bouts or tournaments with videos from youtube or my personal collection. The channel is here. Everybody is very welcome to follow me there.

    New sumo podcast & channel in spanish

    Just in case you're interested, today at 7pm (central european time) we're going to stream the Madrid koen in 1992, with Yokozuna Hokutoumi performing the dohyo-iri. The comments will be in spanish, but of course video is international. Today we broadcast day 1 and tomorrow day 2. https://twitch.tv/leonishiki

    New Juryo for Kyushu 2019

    Agree. With only one spot behind Akiseyama and a better result (5-2 vs 4-3) Churanoumi normally would be promoted higher than Akiseyama. Sometimes is really difficult to understand Kyokai decisions. I must say that I though both were going to be promoted and Irodori demoted.

    Map of all Sumobeya

    Hi everybody, I used Google Maps to create a map with all the sumo stables in Japan. I want to include more information in this map, but my main idea is to include a picture of the front door of the heya so anyone who can use this map could easily recognize it if he/she wants to go there. Unfortunately I didn't think about this when I was in Japan so I only took some pictures of Musashigawa, Kasugano, Izutsu, Dewanoumi, Oshima, Tatsunami and Tomozuna (with myself in the middle, sorry), so I would like to ask for free pictures of the main entrance of the rest of the heyas to include them in this map. If you have some of them and you don't mind to share them with me for this map, please tell me (privately if you want) the address where I can download it or send them to my email address. Thanks in advance. By the way, the address of the map is http://maps.google.es/maps/ms?ie=UTF8&...p;z=10&om=1 I hope it works. It's my first try with Google Maps. (Whistling...)

    Poll about Kisenosato promotion

    Changed. Thanks ;-)
  17. Following the Yokozuna Deliberation Council words, I opened a small poll in my spanish sumo blog asking about your opinion on Kisenosato's promotion following Aki Basho. I invite you to add your vote if you want. The poll is in spanish but here you have the three answers translated into english, so you could make your choice even if you don't speak any word in spanish: - Yes, if he finish the tournament as in Nagoya even without the victory. - Yes, but only if he wins Aki Basho - No, until he get two yusho in a row Here you have the poll: https://sumojapones.wordpress.com/2016/07/29/debe-la-nsk-promover-a-kisenosato-aunque-no-gane-el-aki-basho/
  18. I don't believe him! What is he trying to say? Maybe "I'm so good that I am able to get a zensho yusho with a couple of injuries"? Come on...

    Leonishiki intai

    I have decided to retire for almost all the sumo games as I don't have enough free time as i would like for playing them and because mostly of the time making my picks is more an obligation than a pleasure, which is not what I want. So I want to present my intai papers for all the sumo games except Bench Sumo and Moti's GTB, my two favorite games which I want to continue playing. All the best to all the sumo gamers

    Leonishiki intai

    Wow, what a nice recap of my history in sumo games. 1998 the first yusho? Bufffff, a long time ago. ;-) Doreen, I can assure you that I'm always here... but I'm more a reader than a writer :-D

    Map of all Sumobeya

    Thank you for all your answers. Does anybody know the exact address of both Naruto and Shikoroyama, to correct them in the map?

    Map of all Sumobeya

    Hi all, After a loooong time, I have finally updated the map with all the new changes during these months (well, really years). Please, feel free to telling me if you find any mistake with any address or any other data, specially with Musashigawa beya as I'm not sure if I put it correctly in the map. BTW, here you have the short URL: tinyurl.com/22akpy
