Honestly? Yeah. He's either been or looked injured for as long as I can remember now, with the exception of that one almost-yusho. It's so hard to watch given he's my favourite wrestler, but.. man..

Plus, once he retires we can get the road trip buddy movie with Nishonoseki we've been waiting for.

Aww that sucks - would love to see him come back stronger but another back injury at his age could be too much. Big Papayasu

Robviously posted:Not a pro-athlete by any means but I work outdoors year round and anecdotally, hydration is one of those things that gets you before you realize it. You don't get thirsty before you get dehydrated sometimes, during the summer months when it's real hot I have an actual hydration routine I use because it's easy to just keep pushing forward on what you're doing and not realize how much water/electrolytes/etc you've lost. Was always told if you feel thirsty you've already fallen behind

The selfish part of me wants Takayasu to sit out of September and return in November to get the elusive Yusho. It won't happen though. Takayasu is bound to be Mr. Jun-Yusho

Man, that's an incredible event. If it were within a day's drive of me I'm not sure I'd be able to resist paying $400 to shake hands with the man himself.

Welp I'm sick so no Hakuho for me. I mean I'm sure seeing the greatest Yokozuna of all time at a festival in a Canadian suburb is something I'll get to experience often so I'll just have to go next time.

Dang, sumo frogs own. I've a trip to Tokyo planned for January (obviously around the basho) and also a half plan to get a lil tattoo when I'm there - sumo frog is definitely a contender.

Nessus posted:There sure are, friend. Where do you think the Yakuzas go? Places where gaijin should probably stay away from... But there's gotta be some hipster places in Tokyo. Maybe not smaller more traditional cities. Hell, there's gotta be places that can make some bank on taking US military money.
