Nishiiwa and Tamanoi followed suit - almost literally. I don't know whether Arashio is a man after my own heart and just too tight to fork out for something he may only wear once, or the NSK has received a polite memo requesting oyakata stop turning up in uniforms that put the actual police to shame, but the summer work uniform is fine by me.

dingo 1,479 Posted June 25 We have to introduce a Sumo Forum Rikishi as Police Chiefs Dignity Index. The top rank would be someone like Wakanosato for example, and the bottom rank without contest Shodai.
