Tucson Derby Brats

Derby lovers and sports fans, I am happy to announce that I am now blogging to fanster.com. You will be able to find my blog there at fanster.com/michichan. As we go forward, the content that will go to fanster will be more geared towards the general interest sports fan but at the same time, the news feed from michichan.com will be available on that site. Score and stats data for the leagues will remain at michichan.com.

Tonight was a major night for roller derby in Arizona as three different leagues held events. In Phoenix at Arizona Roller Derby, the 1-0 Bruisers would take on the 0-2 Surly Gurlies while down in Tucson, the day started with an afternoon bout between the Tucson Derby Brats travel team, the Saddlebrats and the Los Angeles Junior Dolls, the little sister league of Los Angeles Derby Dolls. Then in the evening, Tucson Roller Derby had their season opener with 6 15-minute mini-bouts following the same schedule as the home team bouts for the rest of the year.

Derby lovers, here we are again. The derby season is about to get into high gear here in Arizona. TRD had a great way to open the month by showing evidence that your Michi needs to move to Tucson and attend the Helen Wheels school of skating correctly.

Let's talk derby. AZDD, AZRD, TRD and Brats!
