Pet Peeve

Derby people: Use of the term “roller derby queen” = ugh. Right? 

Because: Ugh. It has been used in both articles I’ve seen about my league this week.

Thursday Thighlights, 1/24/13

We’re just one month away from the start of the 2013 season, and you would not believe how hard our skaters have been training. Folks are working with personal trainers, some are going to kettle ball classes and boot camps, and last week I saw Your Mom pulling a car around the parking lot by a rope between her teeth. On Saturday, VelociSlaptHer and Botti Slam will take things a step too far and will swim in the Long Island Sound for the West Haven Icy Plunge for the Cure. These ladies are dedicated.

Our first game will be 2/23 at the CT Sports Center in Woodbridge. The DC All-Stars (Division I) are coming up to challenge the Stepford Sabotage, and the Queen City Cherry Bombs will face off against the Yankee Brutals. There will be PBR beer, cupcakes, and probably a few beatings. More info about the 2/23 game at http://ctrollerderby.net/events/02-23-2013/, and season tix are available at http://ctrollerderby.net/2013-season-and-vip-passes-now-available/

Also this week, happy birthday to Toughie, Fred Perrywinkle, and C. Mya Rage!!!

Help send the Stepford Sabotage to Spring Roll

The CT RollerGirls are raising money to send their WFTDA charter team to Spring Roll in May!  We’re sending a 16-person roster and two of our twenty* coaches all the way to Indiana to (hopefully) kick some butt and take some names at this 3-day tournament.  Give some love and you can get all kinds of stuff in return.  Plus!  CTRG is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, so a portion of your donation is tax deductible!  Help a derby girl out!

*maybe it just seems like twenty
