[sumo] Comments on Scott's reaction to Asashoryu's suspension

[Robert Hovestadt]

 It would seem to this Sumo follower that the incident of the young
wrestlers death has gone to the back burner, but it may be quite different
for those with access to Japanese publications [and the ability to read
them].

Question to Sukubidubidu:
       {I do not disagree with your assessment of the man, as I have never
met him.}

        Does an intelligent young man [who handed in a medical certificate]
with a fractured vertebrae in his back [my lay translation of what was
meant] go out and play football [soccer] in a very public event? I don't
claim to be the most intelligent person in the world, but if I was told i
had a 'fractured back' I would not even run much less play football
[soccer].


I agree with Lynn's assessment of why Sumo will not change. Sumo is what it
is and if you want to be a part of it you must accept that.
