What derby did you watch this weekend? What are you seeing out there? Anything new? I didn’t plan my weekend around derby, so I only got to watch most of the second half of the Rose City home game (Guns N Rollers vs. High Rollers) and a little bit of Victoria at the Big O. What [...]

After Saturday night’s bout, the roller derby wanted answers. Mostly, they wanted answers to why Demanda Riot got ejected. I can see why it generated so much hubbub – the new rule is kind of weird and strict, and not many high-profile games have been played under this new rule set. Anyway, it looks like [...]

Welcome to the inaugural Frisky Power Rankings, where I rank women’s flat track roller derby according to my whims/in-depth knowledge. Gotham. Shut up, Gotham, we already know. Rose City Wheels of Justice. The teenagers are looking really good. (That came out wrong.) Rose City Break Neck Betties, but only when I bench coach them by [...]
Roller derby stats – a grain of salt

(Part one of two of a very short series about roller derby stats) First of all, let me say how incredibly pleased I am that my home league uses Rinxter, and has stats readily available to the public for just about every game we play. Rose City is really committed to furthering the sport of [...]
New WFTDA Divisions and Rankings Calculator

It’s here, guys! As promised “after championships” (technically true, but geez), the WFTDA released details on how rankings are going to work next year. They released a lot of information. It’s a lot to digest. So, let’s skim and chat and avoid doing math as long as possible. Unless you’re into math. In that case, [...]
Interview with Bashonista from Left Turn Clothing

Bashonista owns Left Turn Clothing, the company that you asked about on the internet after you saw how how stretchy the Wheels of Justice’s jerseys were. She also skates for the High Rollers, a Rose City home team. This week she took some time out of making new uniforms for the Break Neck Betties (there are [...]

So! It’s a busy week! I’ve been writing this recap blog for the Rose City Rollers site and it’s a busy week at work, meaning short lunch breaks. So, let’s just check in real quick after Westerns here. How we all feeling? Tired? Over being mad at Oly? Madder at Oly due to the whole [...]

Hey all. I didn’t really blog over here today. PSYCH! I blogged over at the Rose City Rollers website, with just a brief preview of Westerns as concerns our dear Wheels of Justice. And, just as a bonus since you clicked all the way over here, look what Keary made today. More hugging, please! Um, [...]

First of all – hi internet! I had more 500 more views last week than in any other month of this blog. Are you interested in my feelings about Oly? Come back and visit again for more of my feelings and opinions. (The internet needs more of that.) Are you interested in that AND in manatees? [...]
Not going to Westerns
Posted in Derby, tagged big 5, pegacorns, tournaments, travel, wftda, WOJ on August 15, 2012 | 3 Comments »
I’m not going to Westerns this year. BUMMER. They’re always hard for me to get to, situated between two of the busiest weeks of my year at work. If I did go, I’d have to fly in Friday night and fly out Sunday night or first thing Monday morning. And when I say “first thing” I mean [...]
