                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings, warriors of DAL SHANG!  Once again I've been called out of retirement 
for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting.  What's with MURDEROUS MARIGOLD?  
She actually beat SAND DANCERS' HARRUMPH, and walked away with 20 more points from 
the fight.  Major screwup at SAND DANCERS.  HARRUMPH lost 6 points to MURDEROUS 
MARIGOLD.  Some new strategies, perhaps?  Maybe HARRUMPH will provide more easy 
wins...  Try as he might, HELVAN QUICKHAND wasn't good enough at persuading SLICE 'EM 
UP to step down from the Duelmaster's throne...  Advice to fighters with a 1 
will--give up fighting!   
     No matter the time or place, men will always duel.  DAL SHANG thinks MISTRESS 4 
XMAS and their 22-20-0 is too much!  If at first you don't succeed, give up...  
Management must be dealin', as the boys at MS10 03 ain't reelin'!  MISTRESS 4 XMAS' 
mad!  What do people see in ARETHA FRANKLIN?  Hers 21-19-0?  TOURNAMENT BLUES 65 
ain't talkin', but she's got 99 points.   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  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!  Remember--a 
good fighter needs both good skills and good luck.  Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen
