Tachiai Natsu Video Podcast – Banzuke And Predictions

After an earlier upload problem, which resulted in a video with Team Tachiai goofing around and cutting up, the REAL youtube presentation of our May banzuke and prediction video is finally ready. Its Andy, Josh and Bruce again, and this time we focus further down the banzuke. We cover Wakatakakage, Tobizaru, the “redemption” wave from Terunofuji, Ura and Murata, and we discuss if Chiyonokuni will actually start this tournament following his kyujo in March. We round out the show with our always regrettable predictions. It’s 27 minutes of your life you will never get back, so spend them with us as we talk bout sumo.

Tachiai Natsu Video – News and Events

The YouTube video version of our audio podcast posted last night. Josh, Andy and Bruce cover sumo topics and news around the Natsu basho, now just days away. We discuss the 4 Ozeki banzuke, and wonder if it’s an omen of approach doom, the hard-chargers in the top Maegashira ranks, the battle Royale at the top of Makushita, Hakuho’s snub with the ichidai-toshiyori, and the terrible news of Hibikiryu’s death.

This is the first of a two parter, with the next one to be posted before the start of the tournament on Sunday.
