     Welcome ALJAFIR.  I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well.  Many the fights have 
I fought here.  The celebrations, the disappointments...  Woof!  WHEN EAGLES DARE 
were a bunch of dogs after PERRY STRIKE FORCE got through with 'em!  2nd ain't so 
sweet as 1st!  Phhbltt!  Too much drinking and too little dodging gave BLACK GENESIS 
a 0-0-0!  I got a good laugh out of it!  Up 'n down.  Up 'n down.  Rankings always 
change.  Up 'n down.  I think I'm gonna be...  Well, ASSASSINS' 5th moved them up to 
3-2-1 place.  What's with BLADE?  He actually beat WHEN EAGLES DARE's POMPEII, and 
walked away with 18 more points from the fight.  Major screwup at THE SHOWOFFS.  BIG 
DUDE lost 27 points to FARRELL.  Some new strategies, perhaps?  Maybe BIG DUDE will 
provide more easy wins...  TYLER was reminded on the sands why TACO TRUCK is 
Duelmaster.  Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!   
     If at first you don't succeed, avoid.  That'll get you in the Spyreports.  The 
most avoided team was WHEN EAGLES DARE.  The bums at THE SHOWOFFS couldn't face the 
challenges from WHEN EAGLES DARE!  No excuse for that!  What do people see in RALF 
TANNER?  His 9-16-0?  MIDDLE WAY ain't talkin', but he's got 55 points.   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  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.  All work 
and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter.  Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.  
Olaffighterwork and no play.  Time for my medication, so I'll leave now.  Practice, 
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen
