Those Eurosport highlights were how I started watching sumo in late 90s. Very happy if I can re-watch them. Will the streaming stay on your channel for watching later?
-
Yeah, it was only as a joke. But I better stay quiet or they give me a 10 place penalty like in the F1. 2nd place good enough.

Can I call a monoi for Konosuke interference?

He has been doing the game like that for ages. You basically can pick your team after Day 2 has finished or change your previous picks. I don't see the point and see it as unfair, but other people might think it is the correct way to do it...

If he does win next basho with a 11-4 he will then have 5Y + 3D. That is better than any other non-yokozuna in history. That should be taken into consideration too when taking promotion. Also, if we are considering the D as yusho equivalent, I believe he is now the best Ozeki never promoted to Yok, with 3Y + 2D against Kaio with 4Y + 0D (results obtained at the rank of Ozeki). Not bad for someone that receives so much criticism.

Promotion/Demotion and Yūshō Discussion Aki 2023
Asapedroryu replied to Seiyashi's topic in Honbasho Talk
I'm joining the haters club too :) Great to see Shimanoumi winning 5 of last 6 bouts to stick it up to all the haters continuously talking trash about him. And he helped me winning the TTT game in the process, so he is now one of my favourites! -
Special thanks to everyone's favourite rikishi Shimanoumi for giving me the win! Still trying to figure out why I didn't play this game on Day 14, but it didn't matter in the end.

Yes, it was a reply. I've just sent it now as a new message.

I've sent it last night. Can you pls double check in your messages?

Damn USA draw eliminates me from the game and at the same time USA qualified for the next phase. That's a double loss. Having watched USA play for the 1st time in this tournament and I don't understand how they are the favourites.
-
Need USA and Italy to win and France and England not to win. Seems doable :)
-
Think you have already qualified following Nigeria's draw. I can't beat the goal difference if I win and Neko can't reach your points Now I need you to defeat Athenayama...

From someone that doesn't play this game but was bored enough to read the full discussion... It's very easy to say some rule is unfair, doesn't make sense or any other sort of negative comment. But it's not that easy to offer an alternative rule to replace that one. On this discussion no one has offered an alternative rule to put in place (tossing a coin is obviously not a better one), so until then that makes me believe this is actually the best rule we can have for this situation.
-
What's the point of a 2nd bout if you are going to lose on purpose? Doesn't make for a great entertainment.

He wanted to screw up people’s sumo games. There’s no other logical explanation. Maybe he is a secret player.
