Here's an article about a Comedy Sportz tournament that Greg Proops participated in.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A13859-2003Aug1.html

The article is fairly short on humor and very short on Greg. It does have a photo of Gregg on his back amidst Comedy Sportz enthusiasts.

Greg mentions in text:

"There would be two matches: Madison vs. Eugene, and Indianapolis vs. Minneapolis, which Menkin dubbed the "-apolis competition." All the teams could call on the assistance of the evening's special attraction -- Greg Proops, star of the TV improv show "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" The winners would be determined by a panel of celebrity judges, which consisted of the kind of celebrities you've never actually heard of. "

..."a lost Shakespeare play called "The Sea Cow," in which Proops composed and recited a soliloquy in Elizabethan blank verse that included all your basic bardic phrases, such as "my liege" and "my lord" and concluded with a perfect Shakespearean couplet that rhymed "vanity" with "manatee." "

This is all courtesy of the Yahoo search engine and The Washington Post.com.
