It's interesting that two people can watch the same
performance and see such different things.  I always
look forward to Miyabiyama's bouts, because I find him
exciting to watch.  I've thought about him that he
does a classic sumo that makes a great example of why
we find sumo so fascinating.  He is explosive and
unpredictable, and pretty often kicks butt!<g>
