Folks may be wondering if we will once again be live blogging in conjunction with NHK World’s Grand Sumo Live. Sadly for day 8, we will not be engaging in the live blog. We will have normal highlights tomorrow morning US time, and the rest of our regular coverage.
Reminder to readers – NHK World will be broadcasting the final 50 minutes of Makuuchi live on Sunday, starting at 3:00 AM Eastern US / 12:00 AM Pacific US.
FYI Live Sumo fans. If you woke up for the live broadcast, but fell asleep while watching it — as I did, you can catch it again using NHK’s Video on Demand feature.
Here’s an url that will choose any of the September tournament videos:
