I could watch pretty much any sport as long as I have a rooting interest in it : local or favorite player/team, betting interest, storytelling, heavy underdog (Enho, Tokushoryu in Hatsu) ... I'd rather watch a random handball match with the French team than say an Liverpool-ManCity FA cup final, even if I prefer soccer to handball overall. Tho, my go to sports are baseball and soccer. Pro wrestling is fun to watch sometimes too.

Personnally I did this on Excel, as Excel is my "go to" for pretty much anything. Some personal preferences into it (in case you find some weird/inacturate stuff). The purpose was to learn some sumo history as I'm a newbie, and to have an idea of how many Y/O where active on average per basho.

If that indeed happens, we are in far more trouble than just missing one event ...

Thanks so much for this Mikawa May I suggest that you include for each guy their 'class-year' (meaning 1st, 2nd or 3rd for Middle and High School, ...) ? If it doesn't require too much work anyway of course. Outside of the 3-4 amasumo experts here, I think it may help newbies like me to follow who is turning pro, going on with his life or on his way to top the next-year banzuke. Thanks again.

That's hard for Kotodaigo, getting past by Chiyonoo despite a 4-3 from Ms2 and 2 wins against Juryo. Dunno if counts much, by he did lose to Chiyonoo on day 9. Better luck next time.

I do see them Sandanme Sd2e Sasakiyama 1-0 (2-0) okuridashi 2-1 Sd2w Masutoo 0-1 Sd4e Yamatoarashi 0-1 tsukidashi 0-1 Sd4w Daikisho 1-0 (1-1) Sd6e Tochimaru 1-0 (2-0) tsukiotoshi 1-0 Sd6w Genbumaru 0-1

For those who wonder, we had 2 fusen in Jonidan on day 2 : - Jd1w Tomiyutaka, 19yo from Tokitsukaze beya - Jd11e Taranami, 18yo from Tatsunami beya My money is on the basho going on.

I see Davaaninj got a Japanese shusshin, he won't have to wait for Hakuho's retirement after all. And Sakamoto from unknown heya ? He's training on his own until he gets signed by a pro scout ;) ?

Dunno if it's the best place for this, but sumodb didnt catch the Sandanme torikumi for day 2. Is there a way to fix this ? Edit : saw it was reported in another thread.

Ms10e Chiyonokuni

Jd50e Mudoho

Holding the basho without public seems a reasonable solution. I'd go as far as letting only sekitori compete to have a meaningful basho with less risk of spreading the potential virus. The bottom of the banzuke stays still for Natsu. Or let the Ms1-Ms5 compete too as they are the more likely of promotion.

I'm counting 20 heya having a "foreigner spot" open (counting Sokokurai and Hakuho as a Japanese now) among the 45 active heya. Of course I may be wrong. 3 stables managed to have multiple foreigners : Tomozuna, Kasugano and now Michinoku.

There is still Colvin Ryuga Delzatto in low Jonidan/Jonokuchi, who isn't considered American either.

In that case : Takakeisho YAsanoyama O Hokutofuji
