I really want to post goatse. Instead I only have these🍄.



Thanks for the updates everyone. I'm visiting my brother for 4th of July weekend, so I'm going to do the draft a little earlier than normal. The cutoff for fantasy submissions will be noon PDT on Saturday, July 3rd. Please get your picks in before then, because after then I'll be drinking in Nevada and I can't make any promises.

In theory, sure. In practice, with Takayasu's history of pulling out for this exact reason, he's probably out for the whole thing.

Started watching sumo about halfway through the March basho, after a couple of years of hovering around getting into it, and am now ready to properly embarrass myself with my fantasy pics after they all go 0-8 or something dumb like that:

Y/O: Terunofuji / Hakuho / Takakeisho
S/K: Wakatakakage / Meisei / Mitakeumi
M1-M5: Endo / Chiyotairyu / Ichinojo
M6-M10: Myogiryu / Takarafuji / Aoiyama
M11+: Ura / Kaisei / Chiyonokumi

Swapped out Takayasu for Meisei; pretty much all I can do considering S/K is only 4 guys at any given time :v:

Here's my picks, based almost entirely off of how much I like their names.

Thanks for running this!

Gonna be funny when Hakuho drops out and someone else tweaks something and we’re all literally adding the same two guys.

Everything coming down to how AOIYAMA does as people's middle maegashira pick.

Avoid Symmetry, Allow Complexity, Introduce Terror
Y/O: Terunofuji / Takakeisho / Hakuho
S/K: Mitakeumi / Wakatakakage / Meisei
M1-5: Daieisho / Hoshoryu / Endo
M6-10: Onosho / Takarafuji / Kiribayama
M11+: Ura / Ichiyamamoto / Kotonowaka

Draft thoughts:

It feels weird as hell to have Hakuho participating and not immediately slam him in the first slot, but I'll be surprised if he makes it through the tournament. Of the three available at S/K, Mitakeumi is probably the safest but I'm still rooting for my boy Wakatakakage. At M1-5, I think Daieisho is underrated (M1w is the rank he yusho'd from just a couple tournaments ago!) I probably wouldn't have picked Hoshoryu if he was ranked much higher; at M5 I think he's good for at least 7 wins but I don't know if he's shown an ability to break out of the mid-Maegashira yet. And Endo is never a bad pick. M6-10 was really difficult to fill. Onosho has been very inconsistent lately; if I draw him I'll probably be considering an early trade based on how he does the first 2-3 days. Most of the rest of this set are banged-up veterans, but Takarafuji is pretty reliable. For my M11+ picks I'm gambling pretty heavily on the new guys, though I considered Kaisei, who I'm hoping can defend his rank.

Well crap, losing Takayasu ruins the entire Team Taka gimmick. At least Wakatakakage has it in the middle of his name.

Pretty sure this is the first time Hakuho has ever been in the tournament and I haven't picked him first :(.
