                                      SPY REPORT

     Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills?  Well 
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for MALCORN.  Uncool, NEON JOCKS.  I mean 
0-5-0 is bad.  Will they will be allowed to fight?  I say use 'em for training 
practice!  2445 BOURBON ST like really fought hard to move up to 4th from 7th.  Way 
to go!  MVP award for YOUR EX-WIFE?  EGGS & CHORIZO's proud of her after beating 
DANCING TROLL and getting 14 points.  Talk about yer big time losers!  HEAVYWEIGHT 
got smashed by DANGEROUS CRIMINAL, and lost 18 points!  And I was just getting used 
to the ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!)  Oh well, welcome BONSUR BOPPER.  Aren't SCUM & 
VILLAINY proud.  (Oh, my.) Who was the wiseguy that said MALCORN's Duelmaster was 
paying for drinks at The Victory Tavern?  Don't look at me!   
     So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway?  It can't be for these 
really neat Spyreports can it?  SCUM & VILLAINY was the most avoided team.  Is a 
60-39-4 record really that scary?  Is there some deep dark secret why EGGS & 
CHORIZO's been avoiding SCUM & VILLAINY so much?  Or is it just that they're too 
scared?  Can GREENWARDENS' DANCING TROLL be more popular than me?  He was challenged 
the most, but is that really the same?   
     What does a fighter fight for?  I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone 
gets killed.  Not after four more fights.  Fight, fight, fight.  Is that all you guys 
can do?   
     I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be 
a famous Spyreporter?  I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it 
quits.  Remember you guys, ease up sometimes!  Chill out!  Later, Debby Tonte

      The gladiator known as Pretty in Pink Johnson came into the guildhouse in a 
state of excitement that sat oddly on his large battered face.  "There are goats on 
the lawn outside the Commission office!"  
      His teammate Slinky Silver raised a languid eyebrow.  "So?"
      "That means a name-change coming!  I can finally change my name to Pinkerton and 
get some respect!"
      "As badly as you fight, who will respect you?" his teammate asked.
      "With a new name, I will fight better, just wait, you'll see.  Because I will 
respect myself!"
      Slinky shook his head.  "Circular reasoning won't help.  You need more 
managerial attention."
      "If my name isn't embarrassing, I'll GET more attention.
      Slinky shook his head again.  "You're expecting a lot of a couple of goats that 
may have been hired to manage the landscaping."
