In one week the very first Christmas croquet in the history of the
Squirearchy shall occur.

Nobody has stepped up to the plate to challenge the current Bloodmatch belt
holder, the Mauler.

He states in a fax press release just recieved at the Squirearchy office:
---
I think everyone else agrees that the Bloodmatch belt is safe with Mr. T and
I, so nobody has dared to challenge me. In fact I wrote up a little poem for
y'all.

'Tis the season to be jolly
Deck the balls with boughs of holly
A time of joy and what's the reason?
'Tis Christmas Croquet Season
The challengers come a trooping
Mauler gives each a butt whoopin'
