Dave and Adam!:smiley:

Both with bald heads!!:wink:

OO i want to see the Baker Vs Raul Vs Johnson Match

that would be funny…

Clark vs Kyle would also be a good one…

at least im not in any matches…

/me doesnt think he should have said that out loud

:smiley:

that could be remedied dj…

I am game for a few rounds of sumo… …if Bill Beatty is.

I know that he’s a yokozuna and I am a mere ozeki, but…

… I think I can take him… …really :wink:

See you a the Honbasho… …er ah… Championship Event.

P.S. Do you think Woodie would agree to being the Tate-gyoji?

I’ll be in for this. I’m not sure about going up against Raul, since he has a black belt. Aaah, what the heck, these sumo suits have alot of padding and you get to wear a helmet, so there ya go.

Here are some more interesting matches:

Kristen Kelso (131) vs. Jess Boucher (000)
Steve Shade (7) vs. Mike Soukup (111)
Andy Grady (000) vs. Mike Aubry (47)
Greg Mills (16) vs Brian Beatty (71)
Jim Zontag (33) vs. Dan Green (111)
Ken Patton (65) vs. Tom Nader (67)
Sean Schuff (93) vs. Bill Beatty (71)
David Kelly (234) vs. Clark Gilbert (45)
Dave Kelso (131) vs. Mike Faticanti (157)
Paul Copioli (217) vs. Chris Hibner (308)
Tom Frank (121) vs. Vince Wilczynski (500)

oh… I can go on and on… this is fun!

almost forgot DJ…

DJ (45) vs DJ (190)

I’m willing to add to the kitty to make this happen in Florida. Heck, we could sell tickets and make it a FIRST fundraiser!

Andy B.

Wow that would make one heck of a show.

(I can easily take Kyle :slight_smile: )

VERY good suggestions. I like them.

Does the Ken Lueng vs Anton match take place during Silicon Valley or LA regional?

that idea is excellent about making this a fundraiser. thank you!

I think FIRST should set aside 3 slots for sumo matches DURING the award ceremony.

FIRST could auction the slots off on Amazon.com. The winner of the auction would get to name whomever they want to don their mawashi and take to the stage.

I suppose that you would have to get the participants to agree to wrestle before the auction, but that shouldn’t be too much of a problem… …we have all done stranger things for FIRST :wink:

See you at the Championships…

Joe J.

Here’s an idea… make the sumo matches the pre-awards entertainment.

As FIRST is getting the hardware lined up and the speeches written, we could be watching these sumo “heavyweights” bash it out on stage.

This would be better than the Disney stilt dancers and the mural painter of previous years, and the trashy music videos of last year.

But… if they can bring back that cool band with the bagpipes, Off-Kilter, the basho is off.

Andy B.

uh oh!!! looks like i’m in it now. thanks andy;)

bring it on clark!!!:smiley: :cool:

Lol, Oh well, I thought I’d be overlooked, but I’d be thrilled to jump on in :wink:

How about for an alternate competition…DDR tournament. I’ve gotten much better since Kickoff! I wanna play against Ken again!

And if not, then I guess I’ll just be spending the afternoon jumpin round on the pogo stick…

How did I know Andy would throw me into this!!

C’mon Chris … bring it on! I really don’t know if I have it in me to thrash a fellow Wolverine, but I think I can overcome it. Can anyone say Great Lakes Sumo Club?
