More Guilty Pleasures....

[cheryl@nsmb.com]

Ok I have this new show I am watching on TV that no one can relate to. I think it's because they are dudes but have any of you ladies seen Rollergirls?
It's on discovery or A and E maybe?

[enduramil]

It's on A&E. I think it's fun to watch, and yeah I'm a guy. I'd rather watch girls compete than a bunch of guys.

Now if I could just get my shift changed so I had that night off again.

I watched a whole bunch of episodes a couple of weeks ago, and also a special where they interviewed Lux, Sister Mary Jane, Chola, and Cha Cha.
I loved it when Sister Mary Jane called them all Nemesisters. I don't know why, but I love that word!

I haven't caught any more episodes since then. Can't remember when they're on :(

So has Hades Lady got what's coming to her yet? I can't stand her...

[cheryl@nsmb.com]

Hahaha...I hate Hades too! She is a control freak.
You know what my favorite part is? Their names! I love Jackie O'Nasty, Venis Envy, Lucky Harm(she crossed Hades last episode and she is going to get into trouble now), Clownsnack, Veruca Assult....the list of good names goes on.
What a cool concept. I want to move to Austin cuz the league looks so fun.

havent' seen it, but the previews look great. when is it on?

[cheryl@nsmb.com]

Mondays on A and E I think. I have the satelite so I know things vary a bit. None of my guy friends like it much so I suspect it's a bit of a ladies show.
I think it's so cool the way these girls are so tough on the track but afterwards they are out for beers with the girl they were punching in the face a few hours ago. Pretty unique situation they way they run the league.

Ah hah! I've watched it too.
I would totally be a roller derby chick.

But I would also be a stunt woman (or WWE wrestler...)
if I had to do it all over again :)

John just rolled his eyes when he saw me watching the tv show...

I was looking it up and they have roller derbys all over the US! Like hundreds of them. I couldn't find any in Canada or I'd move there and start racing.

[Curlzilla]

OK...I gotta check this show out.

[cheryl@nsmb.com]

Here's the link to the actual Rollergirl league. It's pretty fun, check out the teams and their names!

Cheryl, we would have a blast! That sounds like soooo much fun, and a good way to spend pent up energy. Problem is , I could only hit girls who deserve it! And yes, there are a few!

u kick the shit out of eachother while skating aorund?

[Dantes Inferno]

roller jam (the mens and womens) a couple years ago was far superior. I got pretty bored pretty fast with this new show. The commercials made it look better than it actualy is. Too much drama and not enough chicks skating.

Hey Cheryl,

Look what I just came across:
http://www.terminalcityrollergirls.com/

Of course, it would mean you would have to move to Vancouver. Yay for us!

[PKRyder]

Ok. Now I'M moving to Van! Forget Cheryl!

Oh my god! I am so jealous. I want to move to Vancouver now. So cool!
I have really sweet roller skates already and everything. And I have my derby name all picked out. "Cinnamon Buns"

[Fluid]

That's an AWESOME name!!! I think mine would be Yin Yang Thang...or Suzie Creamcheese...hmm....

[cheryl@nsmb.com]

Ohhh...I like your names too. Cinnamon Buns came to me like a dream.

[Fluid]

Sounds to me like you're meant to be in roller derby...or that you're obsessed with cinnamon buns! Either way, when are you gonna move to Vancouver? ;)

[cheryl@nsmb.com]

hehehe...it's tempting with the roller derbys. But then where would all you girls go when you came to Kamloops?

[Fluid]

True, true, STAY IN KAMLOOPS!
I guess you'll just have to start a roller derby league in Kamloops :)

[cheryl@nsmb.com]

Ya so we can compete!
