These are two of my favorite guys (even though I only started watching sumo
at the very end of Musashimaru's time).  I'm happy to hear that KONISHIKI
is losing some weight (or maybe I misunderstood).  I've been worried about
that guy...  He still looks pretty large, but that is understandable... he's
got a lot to lose.  Are there any details?  Hmm... this sounds so intrusive.
I guess it really is.  But I'm just motivated by my admiration for such a
great person and I'm worried that his health might affect him at some
point...  Maybe I can just say that I'm cheering him on in this new fight :-)
