January 2022 Sumo Tournament

[Majorrich]

That’s Posture Woman. I don’t know who she is, but She must be a super fan and incredibly wealthy. She is one of the people in the audience I look for. Front row seats for 15 days?! I think she’s a human because sometimes she claps, but carefully so as to not spoil her nails.

Posture woman is obviously an automaton or some sort of cyborg. She is curious for sure.

 

[Majorrich]

There will be more geisha appearing as the tournament progresses. They are stoic, but can’t beat posture woman. Is that a hearing device in her ear?

No spoilers, but there were some interesting matches for Day 6.. . go check them out.

I’m posture posture woman is a live human! I saw her move her eyes today!

 

[HMan]

Very exciting matches today across the board.
I hope Tamawashi is ok, that chest slam obviously hurt him.

 

[Majorrich]

He sure got up a little slow. That’s close to 400 pounds coming down on that bump.
Still not used to seeing Hakuho in a blue sport coat.

 

[Majorrich]

That’s her on the left side of the picture. The mask kinda helps her a little.

 

[HMan]

Exciting stuff today.

My boy Hoshoryu got his kachi-koshi.

 

[woodpusher]

It looks like both @GearNoir and I both got our kachi-koldi about a week or so ago.

WOW! The Ichinojo vs. Takarafuji was a great match!

 

[Fenster]

Wow exciting stuff on day 12.

Yep, that was a long match. Not a fan of Ichinojo but that was a good win for him.

I haven't really developed a favorite wrestler yet. I just thought that was an exciting match.

 

[woodpusher]

Ric Flair (just for the face plants), Mad Dog Vachon or Ricky Steamboat

It was for sure.

This is the 3rd Basho I have watched and I have just recently choose to root for Hoshoryu. He is a younger guy who I thought may have potential to be very good and stick around for a while. I'm also a big Ura fan because he uses a lot of different techniques and can be exciting to watch.

When Mitakeumi fights like he did today I really enjoy his sumo. Might even say he is one of my favorites. But when he fights like he did in the previous 3 matches he seems to be up and down and this seems to be his M.O. as reading up on his past performances. He has had a good tournament so far. It seems Day 15 is going to be some great matches! So how do we watch this live LOL?
