Natsu 2013: Senshuraku

MatagiyamaA most marvelous time was spent last night at the 31st Sumo & Stogies gathering.  Well, it started with me coming with a delivery guy (I never got his name), then Creswell provided hot, succulent legs for all of us to enjoy (not too much hair).  It’s a sh Continue reading

Natsu Basho May 2013: Day 13

S&S DeGamaI am annoyed at a few things that I recently read.  The first things is pointed to Montana.  After reading Bertrum’s report is was made clear that you have been holding out on me.  Not even have you been recording you and your bird making sloppy sex tapes, but you decided to show the Englishman and not your loveable Cuban plush toy.  Needless to say I cannot blame good ol’Bert for viewing it, however I can blame the guy for Ernie’ing it up with Creswell.  I thought I was your Ernie, bud … it hurts.  On the other hand, no worries Creswell… I got your back.  Whenever the Englishman pillaging the cargo, the Armada is always not too far behind.  I’ll hitch my train to his caboose and leave enough spice back there that in the morning it’ll seem like he had Indian curry the previous night.  That said we all should get our knives and forks out because things just got delicioso!

So Blah blah blah … guys is juryo and makushita… blah blah… and on to Makuuchi

Chiyonokuni vs. Azumaryu

Chiyo came into this thing with a hunger immediately pushing Azu back forcefully.  It was clear at this point that nothing could be done.  Azu tries and failed to recover to the side but Chiyo honed inon his ass and took him out.  Well played

Natsu Basho May 2013: Day 12

S&S Bertrum

Good evening to you fine fellows! I would like to say that I’m about ¼ of a bottle down on a rough Bourbon or cheap blended scotch like Bells, having a nice relaxing evening and smoking a Cabin Roast. But sadly, a long day of looking for a new apartment, and a discussion with the wife has prevented that. Will do what I can on this report though, despite my sober state. Creswell, when you bend down to take off that locator strapped to your ankle, you might wanna peer between those ankles to see this Englishman coming to fuck you raw!

Bit the pillow, it’s time for today’s bouts…

Natsu Basho 2013: Day 11

Welcome to Day 11 ladies and ladyboys. As we enter the last third of the tournament we can see it take the shape of a pear shaped woman.

Let’s see what effect todays action have upon this beast of a woman we call the Natsu Basho.

Natsu Basho 2013: Day 10

It’s Day 10 and at the start of today we had 2 men undefeated. Read on to find out what happened during the latter half of todays action.

W-M4 Toyonoshima 4-5 vs. W-M2 Tochinoshin 0-9
I chose to report on this bout only because Tochinoshin is the only rikishi who has yet to get himself a win. In fairness to him he has met both yokozuna and all the current and previous ozeki. He also lost to his buddy Aran and yesterday to Takarafuji (who was winless until yesterday!). Today Tochinowins came in looking for a left handed grip, Toyonoshima blocked him and pushed him to the right. As NoWins adjusted, he found him being pushed in the other direction, before Yoyo got under his armpits pushed him up and back for a straightforward win. 0-10 ouch!
