Do you know where/if I can currently see a list of presumed participants for the upcoming tournament? Like, if Ura or Ishiura is back in Makuuchi for the tourney. Or is that something that I'd actually have to dig through sumoforum.net for?

Man, day 2! THE MATTA! THE FUCKING MATTA! And the 'geek almost crushed Kakuryuu. That was so good to see.

I loved that bout. You just never see anybody weather a throw anymore.
I laughed so hard at Endou wrecking Arawashi.

Yep, yep. Kakuryuu is, once again, literally required to stay in the tournament because he's the only Yokozuna left standing, thereby putting all the pressure on him. I don't know how he's survived the Association doing that, what, 3-4 times now?

Kakuryu has also withdrawn

I remember that, in one of the previous bashos, they strongly urged Kakuryuu to stay in because he was the only yokozuna there. He must be pretty badly hurt, or otherwise they must be reacting to Kisenosato's failure to heal from a trivial injury.
The sumo newsletter says that he's in extreme pain and can barely use his arm. These things really make me wonder.

Day 9 Goueidou makes it all feel better again, if only for a minute.
