I'll miss him, but I know a part of him will live on in Me. :D

Long live the Rollerderby!!!

Long live the Rhinestone Cowgirls!!!

Spanky never had a bad time at the RollerDerby. He will miss the roar of the crowd, the cracking whips,

the spanking of butts, being tackled by the Cherry Bomb Cheerleaders,
the sweat, the blood, the chiropractor appointments and the crowd who has shared so much love and anger with him.













Most of all, he will miss the Rollergirls. He has always held these powerful, intelligent, ecclectic women in high regard and promises to continue.

Goodbye Spanky!!!

Rollerderby!!!!

It's that time of year again!

Roller Derby! Rhinestone Cowgirls vs. Cherry Bombs

WHEN: Sun. Dec. 10, 2006. Doors at 6 p.m., Game at 7 p.m.
WHERE: Austin Convention Center, 500 East Cesar Chavez St.
WHO:RHINESTONE COWGIRLS vs. CHERRY BOMBS

Ah, the holiday seasons, as the merry colors of red and green happily adorn the streets and sidewalks. But never before has a more deadly combination crashed into Technicolor brutality as when the lime green of the lightning-fast Cherry Bombs smashes into the brickhouse red of the Rhinestone Cowgirls on Sunday, Dec. 10.

Will the Cherry Bombs smother the Rhinestones and leave 'em in the oven to crisp? Or will the Cowgirls cut and quarter those high school delinquents until they're wishing for an end to their winter vacation? One thing's for sure, bone-crushing roller derby action takes no holidays, and these rollergirls will be skating with all the pent-up aggression of a holiday shopping season gone wrong. And you thought Wal-Mart the day after Thanksgiving was scary.

WHEN: Sunday October 15; doors @ 6pm, bout @ 7pm
WHERE: Austin Convention Center, 500 East Cesar Chavez Street, Austin TX (Exhibit hall 5)

So you've been on a derby diet for the last two months, starving for the nourishing breakneck speeds, the delectable railings and the satisfying hard hits that send you home with a happy full belly. Well have no fear, dear svelte fans - it's time to gorge yourself on the feast of terror that is the Cornucopia of Death, on Sunday, October 15! There's no better way to bulk up on your fill of banked track roller derby than by attending the TXRD Lonestar Rollergirls' season-opening expo event, featuring mini-bouts by all five teams. That's right - it's a completely balanced meal of Cherry Bombs, Hellcats, Rhinestone Cowgirls, Holy Rollers, and the defending Calvello Cup champions, the Putas del Fuego. So dig out those pants with the stretchy waistband, save up your appetite and come dig into the bounty of the new derby season this Sunday!
