Good name.

I don't qualify as either. While I'm bigger, I'm not dykey at all. I'm also not a hottie. Also, I won't always be bigger.

Exactly!

I kind of like Dead-Endicott. Annie Freeze could work, though.

Someone suggested that my friend Julie call herself Kiltlifter. She almost did.

One of the girls I met last night was Thugz & Kissez. So it really could be anything. I really like Annie Freeze.

Come to think of it, "Ann" is part of my first name, which makes it even cooler.

That's the dumbest name I've ever seen. Figures you can't even pick a good name despite stellar suggestions from the creative people. Waste of my damn time.

It's a shame that you survived your birth. You would have looked much better coming out on the end of a coat hanger.

You could change Annie Freeze to Auntie Freeze. :shrug:

ROFL

Brady Quinn.

Just playing off the word she like.

If ann is part of her real name, you have annie-septic, annie-biotic,
Annie-body<-porn name also, annie-christ, annie-d'presants <- your french
Annie jen, auntie jen,

Yep....he's better at life than you. Congrats.

Shelby Churass

Oh, you'll fit right in.

Poop Taco is really the only choice. Can you imagine how your groupies scatter?

ROFL Stop trying to downplay his premeditated downfall. No one gives a shit about him. He's an afterthought's afterthought. You're just a hater because I was dead on about his suckage. Pussy.

Dead on? Because he threw an INT in training camp?

Yeah....good job on calling that.

or your name could be Dianna Fire

I don't even remember the last time anyone talked about him. It's been Cassel and Stanzi and your boy is out in the ether somewhere. Tell me I'm wrong.

Edit: A posted tweet from another thread.
Matt Miller ‏@nfldraftscout
Team O vs D. Brady Quinn making several poor throws. Placement is off.

**** off dude. Forever.

That's good, too. LMAO

Ivan Amanda Hugginkiss

Nice.

How about Dianna 8ds Fire?

I want a man to hug and kiss?

I thought Annie Freeze was great

I never expected you to figure that one out.

Ivan almost threw me off. ;)

Just thought I'd bump this and update. I went through and passed the written rules test and all of the skills tests. Had to do that in order to get insurance, and you have to have insurance to get hit. You also have to be able to hit in order to tryout. Anyway, tryouts were last week, and I'm now a Battle Broad, which is the B squad. The All-Stars are the A squad, and we're all known as the Springfield Roller Girls. :) Oh, and my derby name is DEAD ENDicott and my number is 37.

37 is a good number.
37 is meant to hit.

Congratulations. Is "Endicott" your real life name?

It's definitely not one I would make up. :p

Awesome.

Congrats Luv, Joe Delaney's number.

Yep. :) Also why I picked it as my softball number as well.

what's the story on the name?

She once killed a man named Endicott. By beating him to death with her roller skates.

No, she spelled apricot wrong.

Silly twirls...

I think we need a team pick along with a schedule.

Well, 'dead end' is good for derby. I also have a group of guy friends that, whenever I show them up or disagree with a point they're trying to make, always say 'you're dead to me, Endicott.'

I laughed out loud when I read "Battle Broads".

Hmmm, I've noticed some Mid Iowa Rollers posters sometimes, but never went. I might check that out.

Updated OP with link to schedule for the season. I know you're prbably not interested, but in case you are....

awesome luvvy!!

Your avatar scares me.

Wow, im not sure "I would" any of these girls. Scary



http://springfieldrollergirls.com/teams/battle-broads

Over half of them aren't there anymore. Won't have updated teams, headshots, and bios for at least a few more weeks. Not that it matters. We aren't super models on wheels, so no one on here would care anyway.

If you want to watch it for sport, I can link you to some men's derby.

Love the nicknames. great stuff

We had our first home bout last night, and both of our teams won! I was in the penalty box three times (one of which I shouldn't have been). My last time in the box was for a low block, but it was worth it. I went down hitting a girl, but at least I took her down and out with me! :D

so are you used to crashing yet?

We need to see a video of you in action!

It's so much easier during a game. We practice falls and getting up withing three seconds at some of our training practices, and falls happen during our scrimmage practices, but it always seems so hard to get back up. Half the time or more, that's the hardest part of falling. During a game, when you fall, getting back up is an instantaneous response. It's weird. Adrenaline, I guess.

You went down on another girl ! PICS ????

Actually, she ended up on top of me. :p

Dinny Blues came out. It was good to see someone from the Planet.

Bumping just in case anyone near Springfield is interested. Updated OP with our latest bout poster.

I am going to be there Sunday. Really enjoyed it last time.

Quite very likely Springfield's soon to be greatest entertainment value.

Dinny

Another derby bout. Any of you in or around Springfield need to come check us out. We are currently undefeated at home (knock on wood)! See OP for details!

June 8 (finally a Saturday!) at Skateport. No reason for you locals not to be here. We're taking on the ICT Roller Girls out of Wichita, KS.

When are you going to post some youtube video action for us to see?

We have a girl who has taken some video with her phone, but she hasn't put anything on youtube.

You know what to do.

GO ICT ROLLER GIRLS!!!

Luv....do you ever compete against any of the KC based teams from the KCROLLERWARRIORS website? I think I'm gonna go to a bout on 6/1.
also...don't laugh....do they sell beer at your bouts? cause....you know....beer....mmmmmm! :thumb:

Our All Stars beat their Plan B team down here on May 5.

Yes, I believe they sell beer. They're a really good team ranked very high nationally. You're in for a good time.

when ya'll gonna have new pics on your web page?
I heard Dead End is the shizzle.

Dead End is now Mortal Luv. :)

And I have no clue. The girl who does that keeps saying "when she gets around to it".

Damn.

The lockerroom cam (Cinemax New Event) is probably better than the the floor show...

Updated the OP. If you're local, PLEASE come out!

We will also be at Outback Steak and Oyster Bar in Branson tonight. They're throwing us a karaoke party with food and drink specials. Tickets to the bout next weekend will also be available.

I'm still mad you didn't go with my suggestion for your name: "Diana Fire"
:harumph:

Will you be handing out posters and signing autographs?

"Roller Derby" sounds like something that could be an odd sex act nickname. like Dirty Sanchez etc. I'm just not creative enough to come up with anything right now.


Luv are most of your games (?) down there in Springfield? Or do you guys travel up north at all?

People have never heard of roller derby? In the 70's it got to where it was more or less the WWF on wheels - all show. It's actually a sport that both men and women do, although it's much more popular with the ladies.

The basics:

There is a Jammer. This is the person who scores points by lapping and passing opposing Blockers. The Jammer is easily recognized due to wearing a helmet cover that has a big star on each side.

There are four Blockers who prevent the opposing Jammer from passing them, but who are also trying to help their Jammer get through the pack (group of Blockers from both teams).

One of the Blockers will be wearing a helmet cover that has a big stripe running down the center. The Blocker is called the Pivot. If the Jammer is tired or having difficulty getting through the pack, she can take her helmet cover off and hand it to the Pivot. The Pivot becomes the new Jammer ones she puts the Helmet cover on over Pivot helmet cover.

A bout (or game) consists of two thirty-minute periods with a halftime between.

Each period consists of a number of Jams. A Jam ends either when two minutes have gone by or when the Lead Jammer calls off the Jam.

The Lead Jammer is the first Jammer that makes the initial pass through the pack without committing a penalty.

If the Jammer who passes her helmet cover to her Pivot happens to be the Lead Jammer, then she loses that status, and the Jam will go the entire two minutes.

No points are scored until after a Jammer makes their initial pass through the pack and laps them.

There are penalties such as elbowing someone, hitting someone above the shoulders, tripping someone, pushing an opposing player from behind, or cutting in front of players when you come back in from getting hit out of bounds.

If the Jammer who gets sent to the penalty box is the Lead Jammer, she loses that status and the Jam lasts the entire two minutes.

Anyone committing a penalty has to spend time in the penalty box. Anyone who gets sent to the penalty box seven times over the course of the bout gets ejected from the game.

shit that sounds confusing.
I guess it would make more sense in person.

how do you block? Do you just get in their way or can you 'influence' their path.

You can get in their way (positional blocking), or you can go up next to them and push them out of bounds. Just can't use your hands, forearms, or elbows. Any other part of the body can be used. Shoulders and hips are most popular.

kick ass. you hip check any bitches yet?

I've knocked a couple bitches down and out of bounds. :)

my brother used to punch me, and afterwards he always say "Take 'dat witch-ya'"

you should holler that when you check a bitch.
