Baruto: Kachikoshi and alone in first!

[Guest Marujura]

Baruto's picture in Estonian newspaper today:

Wow. Bauto seems unstopable. I think he can make 15-0 easily.

Only a second appendicitis could stop him. :-P

Now that's something I'd like Kaikitsune to elaborate on! (Applauding...)

Hey, maybe if Bart goes zensho the Kyokai will finally get a picture of him in kesho mawashi up.

That is the first time I've seen his.

Are You supporting full frontal nudity, too? (Sigh...) Edited March 24, 2006 by Jakusotsu

[Naganoyama]

Is that a new kesho for Toki?

[ikishima]

Is that a new kesho for Toki?

If it is, he may not get a chance to wear it for very long (2-11 from J10).

Hey, two guys you're not likely to see in Juryo again!

[Kintamayama]

After winning today, Baruto gave an extra shove to Moukonami, sending him into the seats. "Two more to go. Today I'm feeling relaxed. 15 wins..Great!", he said. Asked about the appendix surgery, he said, "After the surgery, the first thing I did was to fart! (Faruto??)". The shitakubeya always becomes tense and quiet when his bout is on TV, (a very rare occurence when dealing with a current Juryo rikishi) as the Makuuchi rikishi seem to be checking out the new "monster" who they will have to face next Basho. "I'm just letting him go at it freely at this point.", said Mihogaseki Oyakata, who is "raising" him in a relaxed atmosphere. "When I get to Makuuchi, I'd like to fight Kotooushuu..", added Bart.

Baruto vs Takanowaka - most decicful match tomorrow along with Hakuho vs Kaio and Tochiazuma vs Asashoryu???

Not really. He should have the promotion under his belt anyway and I don't see him in danger of losing either.

Whatever decicful is supposed to mean, it sure will be interesting but not THAT much outside of the 1.347.510 Estonians. (Applauding...)

[Shibouyama]

Here's Bart's page from the Haru Basho magazine they were selling when I went.

Nice viking logo. Toki's is quite cute, I think.

I could scan in all the rikishi's pictures.

Any requests and where would I put them? In the gargantuan picture thread?

But those horns... it looks like he has some kind of complex. Which is not so unusual for big boys, so they say.

[sashimaru]

I think he is just a fan of Richard Wagner.

[Tatsuma Keiru]

Shibouyama-

That picture is really nice but probably if your scanner has a newsprint / magazine function (maybe it is called descreen or something like that) you can get rid of all the little misaligned dots. I'd also say put it in it's own thread in the Hombasho forum cause I think it's a pain when threads get as big as that pictures thread. Anyways, I'm jealous you got to go see the basho in person... living in tokyo I am getting a little spoiled...

[Doitsuyama]

Any pictures are always welcome. But you could try to improve the quality. Maybe scan at higher resolution and after that resize the picture with a good software.

Baruto on hirve

[Guest ken]

So far I understand Barutos present kesho is presented above (also attached to my post) and the one with horns is no longer used?

[Shibouyama]

I improved the photo quality, but the image size is 124K and the attachment thingy says Global Space Left 111.37K . I could make the photo smaller, but why is this limit so small?

I must be doing something wrong.

Any suggestions?

(Applauding...)

Well, there is a global limit for your attachments, and there are just 111.37K left. A better strategy is to host the pictures elsewhere, and make a link to that place (easily done with the "Insert Image" button when coposing a message).

There are many places to host pictures which I am not that familiar with because I use a simple webserver of my own...

and couple of Mongols over here... By the way Senpay, in a half a year or so be prepared to heard a nasty things in here about Baruto, what he is not. But may be you will be spared of that him being a nordic and such. Anyways love him, next basho we should see him more often.

[aderechelsea]

you could try this one too .....

Some of us Americans have been following Baruto ever since he first started. I look forward to seeing a lot more of him next tournament. As for nasty comments, they come and go. Some people just don't like certain rikishi and they have the right to feel that way for whatever reason. The nasty comments won't stop me from being a Baruto fan. (Clapping wildly...)
