My apologies

Something completely different: Tokio 2021 - what are the odds of Hakuho carrying on ?

To lighten the gloomy mood of this ghost basho, the sight of a few daisies around the tawara would have been really nice.

That tall, lanky guy looks promising.

Dead body is called when a rikishi has absolutely no chance to turn the tables, usually when he is up in the air and on his way out of the ring, with no contact to his opponent. I cannot remember it being applied in a situation like that.

Thanks a lot for this. I was really wondering if they were going out of their way.

In my gai-jin mind I was imagining, say, a Yankees star telling the media that an ongoing playoff series sucks, and the commissioner wondering what´s going on in the brain of the game´s best player ever. That wouldn´t go unanswered. It seems I am just discovering a cultural aspect I have missed thus far, many thanks. (BTW, I love love your epitaph )

My apologies if I am bothering you and others, but is it that the rikishi and the kyokai powers are a little less composed in their comments than usual ? I am really wondering.

Did he REALLY say this, or is it me missing irony from you ?

I am wondering if his collapses are a mental thing, or lack of fitness, or both. Mitakeumi doesn´t look exactly like a workout freak.

Ex-Kotonowaka is still an imposing figure, :-o and looks like a proud dad.

Chiyotairyu has a strong habit doing „backward sumo“. Looked like Ishiura took advantage of the momentum.

I wouldn´t say a rikishi who was never in danger of loosing is on his last legs, just because he had some difficulty in finishing off his opponent.

He always does those days, I don´t think it´s worse than usual.

Without spectators in his way, I am wondering whether Kotoyuki could make it all the way to the scaffold if run off the dohyo like some times in the past.
