To watch it live, starts May 10th, look up Leo Dickenson sumo. For highlights in English, once the basho starts, NHK World on YouTube has it. There are a handful of people who discuss stuff in between tournaments like ChrisSumo.

Thanks - I'm going to check it out! Friends are having a Kentucky Derby party this weekend (?), so maybe I'll reciprocate with a Sumo party!

When it gets closer to the basho, I'll try to remember to do a post with a bunch of stuff to look at. There are some great channels out there with basic info and it's a super simple sport to get into. Loser is the one who gets pushed out of the ring or anything other than the bottom of the feet touch the ground. I find watching it live (or at least a full division of matches) is a lot more fun than just the highlights. You get to see the ceremony of it.
