Non-K-November basho 2020 Discussion (spoiler space)
Millwood replied to Akinomaki's topic in Honbasho Talk
Thank you for the memories. For some reason the image of Dejima blasting across the Dohyo stayed with me for the whole song. -

It was clearly time - but he might of stayed a bit longer it there was a rational method for recovery from a serious injury. I think this is starting to really hurt the quality of Sumo. -
I've always felt the opposite. To avoid gaming the system, the rules make it difficult for anyone but a Yokozuna to recover from injury because of dramatic loss of rank. I think any Rickshi should be able to skip at least one Basho without serious loss of rank, maybe two or more based on medical evaluation. In the past, the Kyujo system got gamed by Rikshi leaving a basho when they were doing poorly, and the baby got tossed with the bathwater.

Millwood replied to Kintamayama's topic in Honbasho Talk
Was there ever a Yokozuna who couldn't fight on the belt and wasn't humongous? -

Chiyonofuji - who else competes?

Wandering off topic. I recently heard a sports commentator talking about baseball injuries. He observed that the current strength training that has changed the game is at the cost of limberness, and may be contributing to the high injury rates. I wonder is this is true in Sumo. Have injuries gone up over the years?

Talk about brain cells! It took me a ridiculously long time to work out that if the previous records of the first match added to 13 this must be day fourtieen. Duh.

I watch via youtube app on Tivo. No problems at all - looks good on my 40 inch TV.

If there were any justice here - and I understand this is Sumo - the fact that the injury was caused by a Matta should have some bearing.

Liked the replays in Day 2 - thanks.

Since no one else commented - thanks for the Kotel simile day 13 - nice.
