Friday Fun: A Streak -- The very few readers of my personal blog, at least those who read it before I started going overboard with political comments the last few months, may remember that my favorite sport is Sumo. (Come to think of it, I even mentioned it in these posts a while back.)
This week, in the bi-monthly basho (tournament), the current Yokozuna (top ranked wrestler), Asashoryu, broke the previous record for consecutive wins with his 31st on the first day of the meet. As of yesterday, he was up to 35. Realmedia video of Day 5 includes his latest win [800k .rm], which shows how, even with his relative small size for the sport, he has risen to the top of the sport with agility and leverage.
