Hi Don, yes, we have been watching sumo via the dish for about ten years now... The last three or four years have been a bit disappointing compared to the very exciting sold out days of the 1990s, but hopefully sumo will once again shine brightly.
My favorites were Terao, Musashimaru, Asanowaka in the beginning when he used to wear a bright lime green muwashi and throw the salt in a funny and strange way before the misguided Sumo Kyokai told him to "cool it", Mainumi the "midget", "Mr. Salt" Mitoizumi who threw the salt like no one else and also won a yusho, Takanonomi the former ozeki, Minatofuji who had such a strangely passive style of sumo yet achieved the rank of maigashira #2 twice I believe, Kyokushuzan the Mongolian in the days when he used to perform what they labeled "circus sumo", and my wife's favorite was former ozeki Musoyama and former yokozuna Akebono.
