Re: Rollergirls

Sorry you feel so cheated, you should remember the show is about their
outside life as well as their derby life. Also this is our way of
playing the game. We are not timid, we cheat, we have no pre
determined outcome of our games. Yes it does get a little "Mad Max"
per say, and hell yes we are having fun, but we do it our way, and if
that is what makes the show horrible, I'm sure you'll find other shows
to watch, but thanks for watching the first even if it was your last.
