Sumo - Aki Basho 2008

[Keyy]

Sooooo... Anyone into sumo here at swf?

The September tournament starts tomorrow (Sept. 14), and I thought I'd see if I can get a discussion going here.

Expectations? Personal favorites? Or just general sumo talk...

(a lot of information on the upcoming events can be found on the official site or at Sumo Forum: Honbasho talk)

I've always liked Sumo since E Honda.

So I'm pretty hype for this.

It airs on NHK (Japanese broadcasting, <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NHK>), which you can get by satellite.
But if you're not that lucky (me too), than you have to find a live stream. Like this one: <mms://bpsw00.goo.ne.jp/sumolive>

Oh, and the tournament lasts for 2 weeks...
