                                      SPY REPORT

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  JEWISH BUFFET?  Who?  ROOKIE METALLICA 1 is 
the top team these days, buddies!  Managers were muttering after 4-LETTER VOMIT 
showed BLACKSTONE what they could do:  1-0-1 to move up by 14.  Like a chunk of 
francium heaved into a wet pond, ARCANE FOLLY blew up the rankings to 16!  Those 
betting on 2011 PLAYOFFS lost their shirt, as 2011 PLAYOFFS lost their fighting 
abilities:  0-0-0.  Practice pays for HORRIBLE HAIRMONSTER, who pummelled DON'T GO 
AWAU MAD, to pocket 102 points.  Win some, lose some.  Speaking of which, HORRIBLE 
HAIRMONSTER was winsome, after beating DON'T GO AWAU MAD and seeing him lose 11 
points.  WORKABLE THERMALS successfully staved off a grab for the roses by ENTER 
SANDMAN of ROOKIE METALLICA 8.  Does BLACKSTONE have no one talented enough to 
dethrone it?  So who's the team that's been walking into taverns last week and 
ordering milk?  Sounds like a PR stunt to me.   
     My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter. 
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights!  Like the noble eagle soaring amongst 
the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of WARRIORS 11, alone and unchallenged.  The 
warriors of WARRIORS 11 found their efforts at combat frustrated as 011312R 
apparently had more important things to do than fight.  Everyone is famous for 
fifteen minutes, and YUKIO OKUTSU is it right now.  Most challenged warrior.  Isn't 
MEDAL OF HONOR L5 proud!   
     Is there life after death?  Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after 
life!  PUKE of 4-LETTER VOMIT spared YUKIO OKUTSU (21-31-0) from having to lose any 
more fights.  What's your next plan, MEDAL OF HONOR L5?  Ask not a spymaster for 
counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into an unconscious 
stupor.   
     Do not think spyreporting in BLACKSTONE is the highlight of my life.  My fingers 
tire and I fear my incessant prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable 
character.  Do not despair!  I shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir
