Ah, maybe not the best comparison to make. In fact, putting any
Yokozuna in the same sentence as Pope John Paul II is a bit pretentious at
best. Maybe if you compared Akebono's latest "career choices" with the
Emperor of Japan stepping down to follow his dream of being a Three
Stooges impersonater it would be a more realistic example. But, from a
lapsed Catholic who is more Buddhist than anything else, please do not
disparage His Holiness again.
