sekihiryu 51 Posted January 21, 2008 Chiyomaru - only a woman would say that ;-) Some good pics in there Fay, you really have a knack for capturing emotions on camera. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doitsuyama 1,192 Posted January 21, 2008 Special service today, all juryo rikishi, except the one who are already retired for me ;-) There's only one rikishi missing and his real retirement might not be too far into the future, so I assume I can be glad the database already has a pic of him. But what's the story behind the Uchidate treatment from you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asashosakari 19,655 Posted January 21, 2008 (edited) But what's the story behind the Uchidate treatment from you? Presumably the henka in Kotonowaka's last bout? At least the guy has the right shikona for it, what with "shun" being part of it... (Blatantly off-topic: Speaking of the database and soon-to-be-retired rikishi, I think Tochinohana's shusshin is outdated...Yamagata-mura was merged into Kuji-shi in March '06.)

Fay 1,677 Posted January 21, 2008 Special service today, all juryo rikishi, except the one who are already retired for me :-P There's only one rikishi missing and his real retirement might not be too far into the future, so I assume I can be glad the database already has a pic of him. But what's the story behind the Uchidate treatment from you? Yes, Uchidate treatment for Shunketsu. Asashosakari is right, it's because of the henka against Kotonowaka and unfortunately I am a very vengeful person ;-). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaiguma 0 Posted January 23, 2008 Wow, I didn't catch that right away Fay. I thought you were talking about Kaio, but it sounded unnaturally cruel coming from you. Now that I know, it is a blast from my past... That was the first thread I read on the forum, albeit in lurking mode. Also the first time I learned the words "henka" and "intai."I think I joined quite a bit later. And it did discolor my image of Shunketsu, even once I got to know them all better.
