SPY REPORT
I can't believe the violence in DAL SHANG! I still haven't told Mom I'm writing
Spyreports. She'd have a cow! Well, here we go... Like, MIGHTY DUCKS had to be so
embarrassed when they got kicked off #1 spot by SAND DANCERS! Way to go SAND
DANCERS! One team deserves special mention 'cause they moved up 1 after going 3-0-0.
Keep it up, MEDAL OF HONOR J8! MVP award for JAMES REECE? MEDAL OF HONOR J8's proud
of him after beating HERROL TWO-FINGER and getting 13 points. Talk about yer big
time losers! SORRELISHE got smashed by FLIGHTLESS DUCK, and lost 8 points! Like
SAND DANCERS' MERRO DOSH is sweating since he got challenged by Duelmaster ROPE MAN!
This Duelmaster is like something else! ROPE MAN stopped MERRO DOSH dead in his
tracks! Who was the wiseguy that said DAL SHANG's Duelmaster was paying for drinks
at The Blazing Unicorn? 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?
What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone
gets killed. Not after four more fights. FLIGHTLESS DUCK really fought hard against
SORRELISHE. That'll teach SAND DANCERS not to go and kill any of MIGHTY DUCKS' guys
again, huh! Fight, fight, fight. Is that all you guys can do?
Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand
wash. I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop. Its
been really albendranius! Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Rope Man -- This looks good to me! You have to write a column, or not depending on
your manager, mine would have insisted. And I get to graduate. This has been a long
time coming for me; it isn't my first foray into the arena. Good luck to you in your
career. -- Merro Dosh
Doomed Duck -- Not unless you put a little fat on. If anyone tried to roast you now,
you'd be dry and tasteless. Even oranges wouldn't help. -- Melost the Gray
P.S. You do realize that if you Ducks would demonstrate a tad of personality with
the occasional personal, we wouldn't have to keep making these dry and tasteless
jokes about you by way of comment, don't you? Jorja insists that we WRITE personals,
and what else is there to say? She says that a mere comment of "Good fight" is
insufficient.
Deja Duck -- You're welcome to do that again and again. A win and four skills works
fine for me. Ah, "Good fight," right? -- Grizolpop
George Peters -- When Jorja saw the match-up, she said, "Must be tourney time." I
don't know what she means by that? Still, three skills are probably good, and if I
get a loss first thing, then I can switch over to winning, right? -- Luisenya
Mighty Ducks -- My intention was not to kill Duck-Hook, obviously, since it was a
random match. But if you want to bloodfeud, I'll be here. -- Sorrelishe
P.S. And no, I will not make jokes about his name. Tasteless they may be against a
living opponent, against one who has died they would be Much Worse. May he rest in
peace and come back with armor on. That was just asking for death.
EPEE? Is this some kind of sick joke? What would I do with an epee? -- Merro Dosh
