Takanohana has missed a record SEVEN basho in a row! The last basho he 
completed was Natsu 2001 (May), the very basho in which he seriously 
injured his knee on day 14, and still won the yusho in a playoff against 
Musashimaru. I believe the previous record for consecutive absences of a 
Yokozuna was five...
