Time to do our own sumo: predictions

[Philioyamfugi 378]

Ok... The most useles thread in all of sumo. You have tried to keep up with training reports, studied  the banzuke, made mental notes of rikishi in many divisions.   Last basho this thread got over 1000 views. Few participated, many snickered some tried to derail... But you know deep down, if I could just do my own sumo the world would be a better place and I can't contain my predictions.. So go at it, you don't need a good reason real or imagined . The thread will be buried by the 3rd or 4th day so be brave.

Toyonoshima will KK 

Takakeishou will earn Ozeki promotion

Takyasau will be in the race by day 8

The over under for 2 Yokozuna participation is 5 days.

Aren't there enough games where people can compete who gets the greatest number of predictions right?
There used to be a non-gaming thread for funny/outrageous/unlikely predictions, but I've forgotten where that is.

[Fukuyamada 42]

Goeido KK

Sumo games are good for some fans, but others prefer to talk about our predictions this way.  Some of us don't want to compete and just want to talk.

 

Also, not sure how predicting Hakuhou yusho and Kakuryuu jun yusho is outrageous, but everyone is entitled to his own opinion.

Looks like Mitakeumi is going to have a hard time be lucky to KK

Kagayaki has been beaten down and should finally KK

Daiesho been quietly getting near the top of the banzuke and may have a breakout basho

Endo beats Goeido day 1.

Tamawashi not in running this time............(Small KK! Trust me that's brave for me)

Rusty but well rested Mita will KK.  The question to me is how many wins?   10 sounds about right.
