Peterao 3 Posted September 27, 2009 road to 100 Yusho ended or what ? ;-) Asashoryu won his 24th yusho, and is now 24% of the way towards the 100 yusho total that he will never reach. This has been an Asashoryu Road to 100 Yusho Update. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This has been an Asashoryu Road to 100 Yusho Update. Well, let's hope he goes the whole 9 yards, but if he makes it, I imagine it's a little hard to do them there leg stomps while using a walker...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sashohitowa 6 Posted September 27, 2009 Kudos for updating that thread. BTW, I just realized that there is a special Asashoryu-100-yusho-emoticon: (Scratching chin...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zingo 0 Posted September 28, 2009 The opportunity for true sumo immortality. Once he beats Taiho, the next logical goal is 50 (35 will happen in just a little over 3 years)!. If he gets there at an early enough age, the lure of triple digits may be enough to convince him to push himself to his physical limit.. Ahhh... This old thread surfaced again.... Had almost forgot about it... Being in finance, I've had ample opportunities of "empiric observations of over extrapolating" in various directions over the last year... Somehow the funniest thing about it is the, hmmm how to put it... The more unlikely and in all aspects improbable any "position" is, the more loudly it is communicated and the more aggressively it is defended. No logical arguments are accepted, whatsoever........Until it is too late.... Interesting.... sort of almost religious/political overtones.... hmmm... How do you explain to someone that the earth is round? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peterao 3 Posted February 4, 2010 How do you know that there will never be another Asashoryu? ;-) Coming in March...the Hakuho Road to ∞ Yusho Report! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Afrozuna 8 Posted July 13, 2016 Is Peterson still around? This thread was a classic you either loved it or hated it, it obviously spawned the "Hakuho road to 100 yusho" thread. There were times when the Sumo scandals looked like the end of Sumo as a top sport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
