[sumo] Predictions

[Barbara]

My predictions.  For whatever they are worth...

Yuusho - Hakuho.  13-2 or 14-1. Yokozuna promotion.

2nd place - Ama.  Ozeki contention.

3rd place - Asashoryuu, at 11-4 or 12-3. Talk begins about his possible 
"slow fade". But all that is happening is that they are less afraid of 
him now.

Kotooshuu - 9-6 consisting of at least 5 henka-style moves ("I'm moving 
to the side more now...") of which about half were correctly read by the 
opponent and utterly quashed.

Kaio - loses 5 straight in the first week, finally withdraws. Possible 
retirement announcement later.

Chiyotaikai - lackluster performance, except for the first 3-5 days. 
Kachikoshi.
