|Well, Akebono has fallen from grace now, and is more of a long shot
|to take his fourth straight yusho.  Then again, Takahohana hasn't
|gone up against him or Musashimaru yet, so we'll see how he does.
|Kirishima seems to feel the heat of juryo below him, as he starts
|to put together a good record.  Hamanoshima is still surprising
|everyone with his abilities as shin-nyu-maku.  Musoyama and
|Tomonohana have pretty well held their own so far, and should be
|able to boost their records this week against some lower rikishi.
|Good to see Musashimaru win with non-oshi technique for a change.
|He rarely does, and he's done it twice in a row now!  Takanohana
|loses the bane of kadoban by getting his 8th win; not that there
|was much doubt of him getting it.  Yet he wasn't supposed to be
|this good so quickly.  Konishiki goes make-koshi as fast as
|possible.  He's gotta be begging for his citizenship so he can
|retire from this game.

|Mata nee....
