Fair nuff.

Hopefully this thread can get back on topic.

Fixed camera was the NSK presentation at a ridiculously high price and look how long that lasted. I would pay $150 a year to watch. Japanese people pay about $250 a year for NHK license fee.

You might want to edit NHK. Could make a few announcers nervous.

Surprised his story not revealed.

Intentional was removed Oct 2014 so no longer applicable. Teri had fingers in the hair not on top of.

Next in rank other than Aoiyama and he has only 1 win. Chiyonokuni is kyujo.

He did say pre Basho he is tired of covid. Not a big drinker but missed going out and letting off steam.

With comments like this I wonder how you have accrued reputation credits. A young man is dead.

State of emergency extension til May31st. Wonder how NSK will react?

A dump car is effectively a vehicle with tipping capacity. Japanese use car for most smaller vehicles instead of truck or utility(ute)

Confirmed. Terrible news. More to follow.

What about the Rikishi from these two Heya?

Takanohana sat out 7 basho in a row. Were the same calls made then?

Plane of the dohyo is not a consideration. Judges don't call a bout taking sansho prizes into consideration. I understand your frustration.

Not sure why you would say that but telling you from my experience I understand why torinaoshi was called.

Rikishi on the attack will be given consideration when so close in real time. Even though Kagayaki hit first a replay was inevitable.

Loose mawash, mizu iri.

Promotions will be very few from juryo so no wins will probably keep him in.

So when were 16 absent before? Or do they mean breaking this basho record?

Has been Azumazeki since former Ushiomaru passed away

Almost 100 absent across all divisions

Sumo is on NHK premium thru local providers. No idea of the cost but they don't just provide sumo so you probably get more than you want.

Could their be 66 across divisions out due to Covid? Plus injured and suspended.
