                                      SPY REPORT

     So why do I have this bag over my head?  Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and 
I'm going to give you a spy report!.  Take a look at PHILANTHROPISTS14's act, as they 
have a 1-0-0 week and gain 14 places in the team ranking.  Rising in the ranks like a 
loaf of armored bread (okay, I admit it's corny) is BUBBA'S LEGION, who swept up 15 
places in the ranks.  Take a look at BRITONS' act, as they have a 1-0-0 week and gain 
16 places in the team ranking.  Rising in the ranks like a loaf of armored bread 
(okay, I admit it's corny) is CRAZY 88 2, who swept up 16 places in the ranks.  A 
seasoned team is steady in the lists.  But to PROJECT MAYHEM 16, which fell to 20th, 
it's what you soak in before going to the Dark Arena.  What goes up, must come down.  
Watch out BLACKSTONE!  ROOKIE STYX 33 may fall on you as it crushes past the teams 
below it to fall on the 23rd spot.  Suffering under a 0-1-0 record and dropping from 
9th to 24th place were the PHILANTHROPISTS35.  Keep trying!  A seasoned team is 
steady in the lists.  But to HIGHWAY TO HELL, which fell to 26th, it's what you soak 
in before going to the Dark Arena.  Hey everybody, watch out for IY EMERALDRAIN, who 
flew up 21 points in the rankings after mashing INTERSTATE 95 like a melon.  Keep 
your eye on this guy.  Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  
OIL LEAK was bested by BIRDHOUSE and drops 9 points.  Well, if ya don't shows up at 
the laundromat, ya can'ts wash yer clothes.  ROBERT PAULSON 123 did not fight this 
week so his title was forfeit.  It's a proud day for the CRAZY 88 2 stable, as their 
warrior, CRAZY 4, ascended the Duelmaster's throne.  Advice to bashers--never force 
anything, just get a bigger halberd!   
     Here is other news that is of note.   
     Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day 
drinking to their memory.  Better tanked than dead!  Ask not the elves for counsel, 
for they will say both yes and no.  Silly buggers, eh?   
     Well, there's the manager of the BLACKSTONE giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that 
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?).  Well, there goes another Spy Report.  
Good luck in next week's fights.  Hasta la bye-bye.  (Loud choruses of 'Beat it, ya 
bum!')-- The Unknown Spymaster
