I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Woof! BB INFOMERCIAL were a bunch of dogs after ONE MAN BAND got through with 'em! 2nd ain't so sweet as 1st! You know what they say about the herd of lions who studied a judge... NL CENTRAL moved up 28 places, to 3rd. Who can explain it? Not you, not me, not PBS KIDS' opponents, after watching them shoot up the ranks from 24th to 8th. Ever take one of those association tests? You know, he says black, you say white. Water-Lake, Sky-Blue. Try this: Flop. BASH BROS TREES! What's with LEON DURHAM? He actually beat BASH BROS LIBRARY's BOOK LOST, and walked away with 51 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at NL CENTRAL while they watched ASTRO clobber DEADHOUSE GATES. He lost 15 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands. Try as he might, CRAWL SPACE wasn't good enough at persuading PIATARBAJO to step down from the Duelmaster's throne... Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects to practice on? I hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted prisoners. No matter the time or place, men will always duel. How well I know the feeling of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of practive, ONE MAN BAND! The bums at ON MY BOOKSHELF couldn't face the challenges from ONE MAN BAND! No excuse for that! What do people see in GENE AUTRY? His 12-21-3? COWBOY CROONERS ain't talkin', but he's got 90 points. CAO CAO didn't quite know what to make of a challenge he received from TOP DOG of MONGREL HORDE, who is 19 points below him. TOP DOG perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as he was overcame by CAO CAO and ended up with 87 recognition points. Warriors of DRAGONHEAD unite. You have only your games to lose! Sending a warrior to the Dark Arena reminds the others they'd better shape up. Tough beans, MARK PRIOR. That's what a 6-5-0 gets you. LEON DURHAM proved too determined for BOOK LOST. BOOK LOST was lucky to go in the ring, with 24-6-0 to his credit. He will be remembered. Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills, fight dirty. Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt. The end of another Spyreport! That's cause for celebration in my book!
