Olympics and Sumo



If anyone has access to the CBS network tonight, they are showing an Olympic
preview, and there is a shot of sumo (briefly ) at the beginning. It looks as
if they MAY be speaking about the flag bearers as well - but no promises from
me.  Those of you not on the East coast - it airs at 9PM your time. 

The announcer just covered the sole Mongolian athlete and said he would be
preceded by a Mongolian sumo wrestler with fighting spirit - Kogokukuzan or
some abomination of Kyokoshuzan's name.

I'll be curious to see how much time they do give to the sumotori's
participation tonight.  I know they'll be covering the entire opening Friday
night.
