[sumo] [Spoiler] Rikishi Talk Day 8 Natsu Basho 2007

[Barbara Ann]

We asked the ozeki at asageiko yesterday about his daughter's name (after I
said the Japanese for "son" instead of "daughter"). Although it was
difficult to catch, it sounds like a very lyrical Mongolian name.... but
then, my Japanese is very poor, and it could have been a complicated
Japanese name:-). (It took me about two years to remember Asashoryu's
daughter's name.)

Anyway, Hakuho seemed quite relaxed and very genki, and was in a really good
mood, so I guess (and would expect) that the article in that rag did not
affect him. They couldn't get Asashoryu, so now they're going for the next
yokozuna, who just happens to be a foreigner????? His oyakata should be
ashamed for not even rejecting the allegations. Bring back the old Miyagino
- a real gentleman, and likely the only one who is Hakuho's real mentor.

(Postponing releasing his baby daughter's name to next
week)
"We have a very pretty name for her. I was going to
register at the ward office yesterday but I didn't
know it was closed (on Saturday)."
