Fooey there is nothing wrong with cheese AND bananas.

Overall I agree totally.  That is precisely whilst pulling these shall we
say less than honorable tactics against the other troops (including Asa)
when he got to Hakuho he used forward moving "good" sumo.  Of course he lost
but what the hey it says to me he has more respect for Hakuho than for his
so called buddy Asashoryu.  Either that or Hakuho passed him half of the
Kensho envelopes in the shitakubeya.
