De Konijn- Carrotus:

Further sordid details emerged today about the long running Tortoise and Hare saga as it emerged that the reason Elizeer Tortoise was able to outrun his opponent Buckminster Hare was not in fact due to his taking anabolic steroids, but rather due to a payout to Mr Hare to throw the competition.

Police revealed early today that the powerful and controversial Conejos family had paid Mr Hare almost half a million credits in cold hard cash to ensure the winning of his opponent. a spokesperson for the police a Mr F. Quist has informed us that: 'This sort of thing isn't that uncommon; organized crime has penetrated all levels of popular sports, especially where there's money to be made.'

The odds against Mr Tortoise winning were set at 133:1, thus allowing the Conejos to place a number of small and isolated bets on the competition and rake in an estimated $4 million credits. Mr Quist was rather despondent about the chances of the Conejos family being reprimanded: 'Frankly, they didn't do anything illegal. Mr Hare will be banned for life for infringement, and fine $200'000, but aside from that, the law is powerless.'

The true extent of suspect activities in sport remains unknown, but some believe it is far more extensive than most people think, pointing out that king Jazz himself has never fully elaborated on how he defeated an galaxy wide empire of almost 20'000 troops single handed and computer giant Epic's contributions to Devan Shell's campaigns."
