Asashoryu wins his first YUSHO.

Yeah.. He's cool. I like his tripping technique..

.today is also Mongolian INDEPENDENCE DAY, literally.

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's the 26th.. A Mongolian diplomat announcing said he was excited because Asashoryu could attend Independence Day on the 26th..

It was also interesting because the diplomat talked about the differences between Mongolian and Japanese Sumo. Mongolian tournaments last only 2 days, but have thousands of contestants. Once you lose, you're out..

Yeap, your right! I guess only the NHK announcer said it was Independence Day.

Actually, the Mongolians are party animals according to the Mongolia Today website:
July 11-13 Independence Day
November 26 Day of the Proclamation of Mongolia

about the differences between Mongolian and Japanese Sumo. GJ

Check out this Mongolian perspective!

"Havoc in Sumo World
D. Dagvadorj (ASASHORYU) sends the legend of Japanese sumo, hurling down.
Mongolian wrestlers entrance to the top echelon of the professional Japanese Sumo wrestling makes headlines. The alarmed Sumo Federation went as far as to announce that no other foreigners shall be allowed to the Japanese arenas anymore. "

Nah, that's just an old undated article. The HTML source code says it is from July, but no year given. Acually the site's rather "fun". Check out more on http://www.mongoliatoday.com/issue/1/naadam.html



Totally off topic but MUCH more interesting is the site's coverage of "HORSEBACK SEX For Mongols who live in close tune with the Nature, sex and sexuality are ...

'Oh honey. I'm home...'

'Welcome home dear. I was just ge.....now why on earth have you got that horse with you?'

'he he he'

Brings new meaning to the phrase `riding bareback`

So with this win and his new status does he get some new apprentice wrestler assigned to clean him up after he uses the toilet?
Or can he reach by himself?

[cstaylor]

All wrestlers that reach Juryo level get one or more Tsukibito for those everyday tasks.

What a crappy job...

[cstaylor]

It's a motivator for the lower-rank wrestlers to improve their abilities. The Tsukibito are always low level wrestlers from the same heya (stable)

I was making a very bad and unfunny corny joke.. what a shit of a job, crappy job.. etc ha ha, boom boom.
Actually it is like the sort of thing my dad would say which is disturbing on so many levels.

Having said all that, it would inspire me to work my bum off (sic) to move up in the ranks too..
