    I’ve always wanted to try roller derby but I’m a big baby. However last year I’ve really been forced out of my comfort zone and I think I might give it a try.

    Brings back memories of Leon Russell and his sort of rag time number called "Queen of the Roller Derby".
    But then, I am old. 😎

    I would have liked to see some gameplay, instead of all those slow motions.

    Used to watch Roller Derby with my father. The thing that sticks with me was, "Men are mean, but women are vicious."

    Now THIS is roller derby! Just like the good old days! I can't stand the flat surfaced modern day roller derby! It defeats the purpose and doesn't encourage girls to be properly disciplined! They need a track just like this one which is similar to the way this phenomenal sport was back in the seventies and eighties! Where the players ultimately would beat the shit out of each other!

    Seriously? Why not cover the biggest association in the sport and their champs, WFTDA and VRDL?

    • @iamkarlmeyer
      @iamkarlmeyer 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Because they covered the originators of the rebirth of Roller Derby instead...no 250-19 scores in TXRD.

    I skated the real game fights jamming tv this just dumps a load on us classic skaters. Tnx for the humiliation

    They don’t want speed skaters to be jammers we can stop on a dime and have speed that’s unreal.

    So basically there are more people playing than watching. Doesn't seem like all that good entertainment.

    I use to love watching the sport.
    I just wonder why black girls never played historically. I'm a great skater, but I never felt welcomed to play in this sport.

    The sport has become downright boring by comparison with the way is used to be. These women aren't badasses. The women of the 70's were badasses.

    A place for the woke for sure.

    • @ImYourCherryBomb
      @ImYourCherryBomb 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      And where half them can (and gladly will) knock your teeth in.
      Go back to your safe space if the big women scary you that bad
