[sumo] [Off Topic - baseball] Asashoryu joins Red Sox Nation!

[Kaiopectate!]

Only a Yankee fan could "interpret" Asa's comment that way!  What's your interpretation of the Yankees' starting rotation?  Ummmm, haven't seen Kei Igawa on the mound recently....Oh, he's down in Triple-A?
   
  Daisuke Matsuzaka has begun pitching the way he really can, now that he's settling in: 2 lights-out games in the past several days.  And, just this past weekend, the Sox came back from a 5-0 deficit in the bottom of the 9th!  So, if you really want to see "something else", International style, then watch Daisuke bow to Mike Lowell after a Gold Glove fielding play, or Manny Ramirez rub Julian Tavarez's head, or watch Big Papi's high five routine with Daisuke in the dugout!
   
  Meanwhile, Yankee fans can safely book your Fall vacations for October!

  Sorry, sumo Red Sox fans. I interpreted Asashoryu's quote in a
different way- he said, "The Red Sox is something else, aren't
they?"

Very noncommittal, I think he is a Yankee and Godzilla fan at heart.

Back to sumo, with all of the good performances by top ranked
rikishi this tournament, would Asashoryu finally get recognition
for being an all time great if he won a defining tournament when
everyone else was at the top of their games?

Then again, my comment may jinx this since yesterday I had posted
about Kotomitsuki...

else);)
