                                      SPY REPORT

     Much has changed in OSKSI since last I was here.  Never fear, Olaf Modeen adapts 
to many situations, as do all successful fighters.  Hmmmph!  I always thought MMM 
BEER 4 was an over-rated team and they proved it with a 0-3-0!  Up 'n down.  Up 'n 
down.  Rankings always change.  Up 'n down.  I think I'm gonna be...  Well, ROCK 
BOTTOM's 2nd moved them up to 4-1-0 place.  Some people say I ramble too much, I 
don't say anything relevant.  I repeat myself.  I ramble.  Well GAMES LIBRARY moved 
up 2, to 11th.  Welcome to OSKSI, ADVENTURE TIME!  We need more teams who can get a 
5-0-2 their first time out!  What's with ROOM 328?  She actually beat OSKSI's 
EMBEZZLING SCRIBE, and walked away with 21 more points from the fight.  Major screwup 
at OLDTIMERS.  BAREFOOT lost 12 points to SADIE SHEPARD.  Some new strategies, 
perhaps?  Maybe BAREFOOT will provide more easy wins...  I can barely restrain my 
enthusiam for MUSCLE MEN's outstanding member, Duelmaster PECTORALIS.  I suppose you 
want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters?  Tough!   
     If at first you don't succeed, avoid.  That'll get you in the Spyreports.  OSKSI 
thinks MMM BEER 4 and their 93-109-5 is too much!  If at first you don't succeed, 
give up...  In my day, no team with a 93-106-5 would scare me off!  What's the 
problem, VALLEY OF KINGS?  What do people see in JO ANN KELLY?  Hers 14-9-0?  THE 
BLUES 3 ain't talkin', but she's got 60 points.   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  Someone told ETHEL FINNIE that MUSCLE MEN never 
Bloodfeuded, that she'd have an easy kill.  Well, I'm sure whoever misled you is 
right sorry.  ZYGOMATICUS was plum wore out after BOOMERANG pounded 'im silly in a 
Bloodfeud.  MUSCLE MEN'll have to get a little better before going after BOOMERANG 
again!  How long have I been here?  I got people to see, places to go...   
     Well, I'm pretty much through.  You guys need to get back practicing.  Are you 
as tired of reading this as I am of writing it?  Actually, I guess I'm writing it 
before you read it.  Oh, well.  Time for my medication, so I'll leave now.  Practice, 
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen
