                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings, warriors of RIZTAB!  Once again I've been called out of retirement 
for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting.  What's with HERBIE HANCOCK?  He 
actually beat SWEET MAGIC's TERESIANNA, and walked away with 16 more points from the 
fight.  Major screwup at SWEET MAGIC.  TERESIANNA lost 9 points to HERBIE HANCOCK.  
Some new strategies, perhaps?  Maybe TERESIANNA will provide more easy wins...  MOTTA 
THE PIKE was reminded on the sands why CRITIAS is Duelmaster.  Advice to fighters 
with a 1 will--give up fighting!   
     If at first you don't succeed, avoid.  That'll get you in the Spyreports.  The 
most avoided team was ALL HALLOW'S EVE.  In my day, no team with a 91-81-4 would 
scare me off!  What's the problem, BASH BROS DRIVER?   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  How long have I been here?  I got people to see, 
places to go...   
     Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors.  Any plans here?  
RIZTAB is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places.  Remember--a 
good fighter needs both good skills and good luck.  Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen
