    I did pretty well too considering my prebasho lineups were terrible.

    If any pick below M3 would have won I would have picked Chiyomaru.

    You can pick that high and still win the tiebreakers?

    This is the initial hit. How exactly is this a henka?

    I was coming here to say the same.

    if you mean a henka, it wasn't. They met chest to chest. All Takakeisho has is pushing and when he does it he uses his whole body. He pushed right and his body goes left. Meisei didn't get a grip. Meisei loses when he doesn't.

    If you're going to plateau in sumo Ozeki isn't too bad a place to stop.

    Not sure I agree with that decision. Maybe a redo but Nishkigi was in an unrecoverable position as a result of Kotonwaka's throw.

    I don't think Ura actually won that match so much as Tobizaru as the first to collapse from exhaustion.

    He will get his KK and I'm not suggesting he is bad but he is 7-4 with 2 fusen wins and none against anyone with a winning record this basho. He has not looked as sure footed as he usually does this basho and I gave him minimal chance of beating Teronufuji last night.

    Even more impressive is Hokuseiho had a bad grip on a lose belt and still did it.

    I doubt he cares if he gets 5 wins, just figures that's his best shot to get 1 or 2 wins and keep himself out of the demotion talk. With 2 sure retirements and 3 others besides Takayasu looking at 0-15 records that banzuke making meeting is going to be interesting. Certainly if Ochai and Atamifuji go north of 10 wins they will be in the mix for promotion with so many openings. If the guys on the lower East side get a couple more winds you might see Endo back for a few matches.

    Well, my battle with @ScreechingOwl in Bench was anticlimactic. Oh well, I guess it's nice to get the freebie in Quad with Enho and Chiyonokuli going kyujo.

    Bet against it you mean? No I would not.
