Hoshotakamoto

so am I crazy for thinking Takayasu will get to stick around? I looked at the matchups for Aonishiki (and Onokatsu, and Kinbozan) to close out the tournament and felt like none of them had been taken too seriously, but there might not be any precedent backing this opinion.

I'm excited for Otsuji. Has it really been so long since he was 4-3? Used to be his calling card.

the guy whose mode of losing is to fall backwards off the dohyo and slingshot the winner into the third row? hate that guy

hey now, I remember how much I didn't care about Churanoumi. I even posted him as the textbook example of me not caring a year or two back and it sent his career soaring to new heights.

oh man ... well I recently purchased sumowidgets.com so if I ever get back into it (sumo has taken a back seat in my hobbies for the latter part of this year) there will be a natural home for this

wait are there other posts like this?

Something about the banzuke algorithm just doesn't sit quite right with me. Obviously if you look at the last 2.5 months you can say it's 50-50 which one of these rikishi should go ahead of the other, but if I had to pick one resume to send to my employer I would sure want it to be the one on the right.

i think i'm going intai in solidarity with takakeisho. i'm sure a 6-9 would have kept me around at M17w though if I played
