Hi Stephen,

Okay, I'll bite the bait.  What "phase" is he going through?  Why would
people not expect things from him, let alone big things???  I am married to a
coach (not sumo) and I must say that your speculation goes against everything
I see and hear.  Maybe atheletes go through slumps but I have not been aware
of an athelete, especially in the top caliber, not being expected to perform.
  Let alone performing for personal attention.   Let me understand the last
part, because he is Hawaiian he is an emotional athelete (which you seem to
think is a negative) ?  Aren't you making a very broad assumption or do you
know him personally?

I am interested in where you find your information or is it pure speculation?
    If it is simply your speculation how did you come up with this?

Respectfully,

       Zen
