I just got into sumo and missed signing up in November, here's my possibly dumb picks! Y/O: Takakeisho Terunofuji S/K: Wakatakakage Takayasu Wakamotoharu M1-5: Abi Ryuden Daieisho M6-M10: Oho Ura Onosho M11+: Ichiyamamoto Kotoeko Tochinoshin

Wakatakakage coming out of the gate with his brand of "Haha, bet you thought I was going to get thrown." brand of sumo.

Day 3: Hell yeah, 5/5 today. Takakeisho and Abi had nice slap-fests
|
# ¿ Jan 10, 2023 15:06 |
|
Day 4: I hate to see Wakatakakage lose a match but 4/5 ain't bad. My brand of sumo is to win by any means necessary. Ichiyamamoto had a rough start, hopefully he keeps up the momentum! in Juryo, Enho had a great match today and Hokuseiho looked great. Does having a tall heavy dude lean on you really tire you out that much?

Day 5:Is Abi unstoppable? It seems like if you can't get a grip on him he's just going to shove you out. Just completely embarrassed my man Wakatakakage.
|
# ¿ Jan 12, 2023 13:49 |
|
Day 6: I think Wakatakakage got upset with losing and henka'd. He didn't look happy with himself but it's a win.

Oh Mr. Mustard is a way better name. I hope he comes back. Also love the grinning applauder. He's having such a good time. I've seen a poster of kimarite with illustration and the phonetic + translation of the move. Is there a poster size .pdf of that or just a poster I can buy? My cube at work is turning into the SUMOZONE, and this would help immensely.

Day 10: Wakatakakage looking like poo poo this basho. Granted he could sweep the last 5 days but looking at his bouts so far I think the rest are going to be against sanyaku dudes so it's definitely looking like MK is a possibility.

I don't know if Tochinoshin counts, but I like his little gremlin walk. I like Onosho because he tucks a little salt in his mawashi, but he's doing pretty well so he doesn't count.

Day 1: my team looks pretty bad on day one but CHAOS BASHO is in effect. onosho and hokuseiho are the stone upon which my brand of sumo is built. Well, depending on how assignment goes.

Day 2: onosho, wakatakakage and Ichiyamamoto disappointed me today, but good wins out of Takayasu, Wakamotoharu and hokuseiho. Takakeisho looked better today, hoping he doesn't lose his feet anymore and goes 14-1! I predict the waka brothers swapping ranks. I think Shodai of the frictionless feet will make a return in week 2.

My wife while watching Hoshoryu and Wakatakakage just fall down and walk out of the ring , "I never cared about a sport before" then, "This stress isn't good for the baby!"

lol, my poor team. What I Bellerive is happening with Ichiyamamoto and Wakatakakage this basho: I think WTK is recovering from a broken/ bruised rib, and he's trying not to aggravate it by getting in close. Then i took a calculated risk on Ichiyamamoto performing well in mid-maegashira and that's not paying off.

maybe Hokuseiho is leaving one hand free for balance/opportunistic throwing? He's strong enough to whip rear end one handed v0v.

Ben Nerevarine posted:I noticed someone, Onosho I think it was, tuck a little salt into their mawashi before the bout. I've never seen that before, is that a thing? Anyway it was perfect for him specifically because it was right into the little pocket between the mawashi and his belly button. He does that every time and it's why I always pick him for my team. Sometimes it poofs out at the tachiai.

Day 5: Asanoyama is doing well in the first part of his schedule, even if that match with Kotoeko should've been Torinaoshi. Onosho doing average, as he does. keep tucking that salt my dude! Kinbozan struggling at his career high rank, hopefully he can recover in week 2 for a KK. Wakamotoharu: Zensho-Yusho? props to Abi on the assist giving Daiesho a loss today. Terunofuji: first time watching him fight, big fan of him locking up and muscling out smaller guys and making big boys fall down with seemingly effortless grace. WMH v Teru is going to be a tough match for me
