Re: Banzuke-gai

1)  Unfortunately, I have to use the english sites.  If you click on the
following, it has (Retired) above Kotokobayashi's name:

&D=15

2)  Thanks for clearing up Kuwahara-Kakutoriki.

I've started a database of wrestlers as well as bashos with their results.
It's in the early stages and it is easy going forward, but takes some effort
going backwards.  Also, my lack of Japanese obviously limits what I can
access.  Thanks for the help.
