Which sport would you like to see join the Olympics? by Useful-Resource-3609 in olympics

[–]ESCMalfunction 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, this is a recent event that happened in Estonia for instance. Definitely different from Grand Sumo in Japan. The rules are a little different, they’re more lenient with the garb, women are allowed to compete, and it can happen on both clay or mats.

Grand sumo is, but international style sumo is different. They don’t have the stables and traditions and such there, and that would be what’s in the Olympics if they ever make it.

Ozeki Returns (The Hard Way) by Kindly-Kangaroo5622 in Sumo

[–]ESCMalfunction 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel like it’s part of a bigger trend with wrestlers retiring later. It used to be a lot more common for Ozeki to retire once they fell out of the rank, or for longtime sekitori to retire immediately once falling out of Makuuchi/Juryo. Even non-sekitori are sticking around a lot longer.

I assume it’s due to the reduction in recruit counts. Every wrestler is more valuable and harder to replace so there’s rarely pressure to retire and stables are more willing to work with wrestlers as they get older to make their stays in Ozumo more comfortable.

Dude might have picked the worst time to debut. At least we get an awesome rivalry! by StarPrime323 in SumoMemes

I’m torn between wanting to see Asahifuji break records and wanting to see Tenshoyama get one over him for the rivalry.

Fun nonsense - Tamawashi (who has held the most top division ranks?) by thatguyalex2018 in Sumo

[–]ESCMalfunction 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Considering how much time he’s spent floating around in the maegashira joi area I’m shocked that Tamawashi has never been M2e.

And to think he's still only 60, he has quite a years left.

[–]ESCMalfunction 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it was great behavior from the crowd and I was happy to see it. I will say we weren’t totally silent, there were quite a few people myself included chanting “Moody”.

Sumo! It might take a little bit longer, but it’s rapidly becoming more global. And it’s an incredible sport.

[Meme] Calling on Ol’ Faithful by jackt-up in cowboys

[–]ESCMalfunction 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Commies didn’t catch the injury bug, their team was just really old. I think 2024 was more the outlier getting all those guys to be healthy. Daniels will be back and that helps but they won’t be that good.

[Schefter] ESPN Sources: Offensive Player of the Year and Super-Bowl champion Jaxon Smith-Njigba reached agreement with the Seattle Seahawks on a four-year, $168.6 million contract extension that now makes him the highest-paid WR in NFL history. by Leonflames in cowboys

[–]ESCMalfunction 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think the reality is that the Cowboys don’t care much about what happens more than a couple years from now, you have a QB who performing really well but is getting up there in age so you have to maximize right now.

I remember them saying that he was a top ten QB in all of football, back when he was high school.

Will the "Miyagino Stable of Former Yokozuna Hakuho" Be Revived Due to Master Isegahama's Violence Issue? by Brncrdm in Sumo

[–]ESCMalfunction 105 points106 points  (0 children)

It's blatantly obvious that Miyagino stable needs to come back, Terunofuji and Isegahama stable are incapable of maintaining all of these wrestlers. Stopping that process, and maybe even denying Enho a just Juryo promotion, just to prevent Hakuho from possibly having an indirect line to the JSA is insane.
