Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and I'm going to give you a spy report!. We now have a new top team for all of you guys to dogpile on. RUSSIAN BIRDS now holds the crown and they are betting they can keep it. Take a look at BASH BROS NEWS' act, as they have a 1-0-1 week and gain 18 places in the team ranking. Rising in the ranks like a loaf of armored bread (okay, I admit it's corny) is FEAR FACTORY 25, who swept up 11 places in the ranks. Take a look at BASH BROS FAST FOOD's 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 ONE MAN BAND, who swept up 14 places in the ranks. A seasoned team is steady in the lists. But to FEAR FACTORY 19, which fell to 29th, it's what you soak in before going to the Dark Arena. What goes up, must come down. Watch out DRAGONHEAD! BASH BROS FRUIT may fall on you as it crushes past the teams below it to fall on the 31st spot. It looks like the guys(?) at RUSSIAN BIRDS had a good week as they went 3-0-0 to put them in 1st place. I guess steroids help! Hey everybody, watch out for RED, who flew up 20 points in the rankings after mashing KID KRAKEN like a melon. Keep your eye on this beast. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. ZERO was defeated by FROG FOOT and drops 12 points. Our battling duelmaster PIRATE has managed to hold the title, fending off BAD SPECIAL EFFECTS' none too subtle advances. Better luck next time, BASH BROS B-MOVIES. Advice to bashers--never force anything, just get a bigger halberd! Here is other news that is of note. Here's a song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad BASH BROS FRUIT? Big bad BASH BROS FRUIT. Big bad BASH BROS FRUIT. DRAGONHEAD's afraid of the big bad BASH BROS FRUIT. Tra la la la la! And you guys like to boo me? Well, unsling your rasberries, cause MONGREL HORDE beats feet every time BASH BROS FRUIT smiles at them. Try farming, eh? Well dang howdy, but if challenges were votes, DROP AND BREAK would be president. Although it may be a contest he doesn't want to win. Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day drinking to their memory. Better tanked than dead! RUDE DRIVER defied all odds and slew STONE GOLEM in the Dark Arena. The only ones displeased were the buzzards, as STONE GOLEM's meat is notoriously tough. NOT NEWS defied all odds and slew HIGH ELF in the Dark Arena. The only ones displeased were the buzzards, as HIGH ELF's meat is notoriously tough. Well, just when you thought it was safe to put a new warrior in the arena. No no! REPROBATE, a mere boy, was slain by OUT OF BATTERIES this turn. Ask not the elves for counsel, for they will say both yes and no. Silly buggers, eh? I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of you whom I have not offended yet. C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some tracks. Hasta la bye-bye.

No doubt it was a Good Deed to give goats to people who wanted them. But why did the goats have to be gathered in HIS office? Four of them, and they were a lot like gladiators: not smelly maybe, they were clean goats, but pushy and sure they were the most important thing around. Maybe they should be enrolled in the arena? No, there were only four, not enough for a team. He shook his head to clear it of the image of armored goats with sharpened horns. One thing at a time. He pulled a piece of paper out of his desk drawer, dipped his pen in the ink, and began to write. "It is our pleasure and honor to note that ninety-eight gladiators and teams have elected to change their names, supporting the contribution of goats to deserving people. With the Commission's matching funds, this has purchased four goats--a good goat can't be purchased for a copper, you know. The goats are already en route to their new homes, where they will be--" He paused and thought about it. "--very welcome. We wish all the best to the goats and the new goat-owners."
