Sumo

I have a growing love for Sumo wrestling. The Autumn Tournament has been on TV this past week the finial match ended yesterday. It’s very interesting the pre-match rituals seem to take forever but the actual "fight" is normally over in a matter of seconds.

I have been following a sumo named Kotooshu Katsunori, who is a Bulgarian. Half way through the tournament he was undefeated and it looked like he would take it, he had defeated last years champion, Asashoryu Akinori. But then it was down hill from there, causing me much sadness. In the end Asashoryu finished first beating our hero in the finial match. Boo! Oh well there is always the November Tournament.

Word Up: hai –yes, often said in triples "hai, hai, hai" very quickly
