BroadMeadow Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 I was turned on to sumo through two different online articles: The beautiful "The Sea of Crises" on (now-defunct) Grantland:- http://grantland.com/features/sumo-wrestling-tokyo-japan-hakuho-yukio-mishima-novelist-seppuku/ And the historically and analytically informative "The Sumo Matchup Centuries In The Making" on fivethirtyeight- https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-sumo-matchup-centuries-in-the-making/ I have been following the bashos via Kintamayama's videos for a couple of years and snooping around on this forum for about as long. The above referenced articles pretty much describe who I am- someone looking for truth and beauty. Thanks for having me! 9
Atenzan Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 I hadn't read the Grantland article. Excellent read. Thanks for sharing, and welcome to the forum!
kuroimori Posted January 19, 2019 Posted January 19, 2019 Yeah, a Hoosier! Welcome to the forum & thanks for the superb links. Go Pacers! Cheers from a Reggie Miller fan from Germany 2

Cheers from a Reggie Miller fan from Germany The Pacers are a good team- they fit in with the state. Hopefully they can make it out of the East this year! 5 hours ago, Fukurou said: Welcome! Whereabouts are you? BoilerUp! I am up in Notre Dame country. But even with the last name of Kelly, I don't consider myself a fan of the Irish.

inhashi Posted January 21, 2019 Posted January 21, 2019 A warm and sunny welcome to the forum! I was born and raised in Indiana, so as a fellow Hoosier I can very well understand it's crazy winter weather patterns
