                                      SPY REPORT

     If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of LIN 
TIRIAN brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too.  Later days, SAND DANCERS, since PERRY 
COUNTY took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  Of course, we're all 
terribly impressed to see EPHRAIM win a fight and gain 15 points, terribly.  Tsk, 
tsk, EPHRAIM beat ST. CROIX and ST. CROIX lost 8 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  
And if variety is the spice of life, LIN TIRIAN may be getting bland, as STUNNING 
INLAY stays top dog in the city.  Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how 
else do you think some of these guys win their fights?  Skill?  Ha!   
     He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.  What's 
the big D?  SAND DANCERS was the most avoided team?  Bunch of lily livered... 
grumble... mumble... curse...  And it looks like PERRY COUNTY avoided them the most 
this turn.  What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me.  Hmph.  Ooh, I'm 
frightfully impressed, BOBWHITE was this turn's most challenged warrior.  Watch that 
ego swell, sports fans.  I guess I can give a little credit to LEOPOLD of PERRY 
COUNTY for challenging up by 21 to BOBWHITE.  LEOPOLD lost to get 82 points of 
recognition.  And we have TOBINSPORT in a challenge, going down 15 points for the 
fight.  Guess what?  I thought TOBINSPORT showed great skill and promise when it 
bested MEDIO CUR.  All right, so I slept through it!  Big deal!   
     Death and Taxes.  The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience.  Let's 
see if anyone's dead or dying.  Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave 
team is developing these kinds of weapons?   
     I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for 
an epee.  Forgive me for writing with a dagger.  Well, I've had enough of this 
drivel, and I'm sure you have too.  Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather.  Paste 
this one in your scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide
