[sumo] English side....

[Ronnie Murray]

Am I the only one that gets the feeling that  Hiro Morita and Kenneth 
Swenson some how think that what they are doing is for the radio vice 
TV? Not putting any down but sometimes less is better......

Here is a list of the English side commentators I compiled from my video 
files for the 15 days of the most recent basho. English coverage this 
time was splendid.  Particularly I noticed Hiro Morita becoming smoother 
and more confident. One of the days below there was also one of the 
oyakata present but I missed which day it was. I would have liked to 
have had Doreen Simmons present at least a couple more days.  Other than 
that minor complaint, the current reliance on Mihara and Johnson as far 
as I'm concerned is really good news.
