       Challenge them to present their supposed opposition if you want to defeat   
   them again. I've challenged them so many times by now I know they can't produce   
   any examples, but maybe you could coax some sort of an attempt out of them.   
   Probably not because I don't believe they have it in them, but it would be good   
   fun to see them maundering and puling around trying to make an attempt if you   
   could get the pitiful wusses to try. They've been boasting about being misnomer   
   opponents all these years, yet when challenged to present their opposition they   
   never have been able to. They just try to wuss out of it in whatever pathetic   
   way(s) they can think of.
