The pictures from Saturday's game have started to... - FFing Enigma

Tina, you're a bad ass. That's all. - Jenny H

sorry for my ignorence but what is the name of this sport? - ipek aral kişioğlu

Ipek, this is flat track roller derby. There are leagues all across the US and around the world, so chances are there's one near you! - FFing Enigma

Thanks :) - ipek aral kişioğlu

I like the first photo: it looks like it was taken in the 60s. - Akiva

Two questions -- I thought it was called a match not a game or do both apply? What is with the Canadian flag? - Brian Sullivan

MVB, I don't know if it's possible to be too forward with derby girls. Just know that they tend to hit when they get offended =D - FFing Enigma

Brian, it's actually called a bout but some people get confused if I say "We had a bout Saturday" thinking it's a typo and that I meant "about". The flag is because we play in a roller hockey rink, and as with most hockey establishments they have both the US and Canadian flag up for the national anthems before games. - FFing Enigma

Since I know Dave won't kill me I'll say this, Tina looks hawt in her Derby regalia. - Gunnybear ™

Gunny knows cause Gunny wuz there! What he fails to mention is that my face turns purple after skating a lot. What he doesn't know is I have a nasty patch of fishnet patterned rink rash on my right thigh and the fishnets are again relegated to non-skating event wear only. Ouch!! - FFing Enigma

You also get lots of other people's sharpie marks on you. :D - Gunnybear ™

Yup! The back right quarter of my white jersey is grey and/or black after Saturday. - FFing Enigma

First time I hear of this sport. - Richard A.

Richard (and Ipek) you can learn more about roller derby by visiting http://www.derbynewsnetwork.com and http://www.wftda.com - FFing Enigma

I'll read that properly after the current match. - Richard A.

I've been doing it about a year now and have been able to avoid any major injuries so far. Have gotten some good bruises, rink rash, and a spectacular black eye =) - FFing Enigma

Tina, you're so awesome. - Josh Haley

Tina is quite the kick-arse derby girl! Cool pics of your bout! Though, from the pic, it does look like you are taking the ref out on purpose! ;) - JA Castillo

she was the reffs were the jammers in that round - Gunnybear ™

Really?! hahahaha...wow, then what a take down! - JA Castillo

I have no idea what this is about, but I'm awed - Mo Kargas

Yeah, we had a 30 minute period of twisted jams in this bout, Jason. Lots of skaters got to beat up on some refs =) Mo, there are a couple of derby leagues in Australia so you might be able to catch some live if they're near by. - FFing Enigma

I'm good - Mo Kargas

Which picture, MDV? - FFing Enigma

That's Jenuine Pain and no, she's not married. Can't remember if she's still seeing someone though. - FFing Enigma
