Genbu, Kaitetsu, Asabariki, Kamahiko, and Enkaga gather to discuss the IRL basho and how much Enkaga and Genbu haven’t seen. Who’s hot? Who’s not? What kind of things are we seeing as a trend? Does Kagayaki still suck? Who has the best chances to take the Yusho other than Terunofuji? When was the last time […]

The gang was almost all here as Genbu, Kamahiko, Asabariki, Tamanosato, and Enkaga got talking about whatever they could talk about. The RTY Banzuke dropped but we hardly touched it with such topics as French politics (or maybe that was just the pre-show), sharks vs. electrocutions, how Genbu is better than Enkaga, live bouts with […]

Genbu (COVID infected but almost out of it) returns to join Kamahiko, Kaitetsu, Tamanosato, Kunousagi, and Enkaga for a round up of random sumo news!

Kamahiko, Asabariki, Tamanosato, Enkaga, Shitayama, Aoiyamayama, Yoshinochin, and Takaryu are on for the first time in a while to discuss Kagayaki, some live bouts, what is going on in general, Onosato, general sumo topics, and what has been going on with whatever is going on!

Kaitetsu, Kamahiko, Tamanosato, Asabariki, Shitayama, Kamamidori, and Genbu break down day 1 of the May Tournament in IRL basho talk as we discuss Makuuchi, the san’yaku, some Juryo goings on, a little Makushita, what our feelings on the performances were, punchable faces, Tamanosato’s strange dislike of cheese, Kagayaki’s current status, the various states of the […]

Kamahiko, Kaitetsu, Asabariki, Terukaze, Tamanosato, and the gloriously bald Genbu decided it’s time to hold the S3 Champ/Chump draft (since no one contacted me about the non-live draft possibility this time)… Enkaga comes in late and chooses his rookie season options at the very end, too. The gang talks about both Banzukes (IRL and RTY), […]

No Kaitetsu or Tamanosato as they travel on their extravagant yacht to glorious places like Malta, Venice, and Bermuda playing soccer/football on their full sized pitch. Yes, a yacht with a full sized pitch. In the meantime, Asabariki and Kamahiko take the lead on interviewing former Ozeki Akamidori about their career, their heya, Kumamidori’s future, […]
