During the last decade, RollerGames had 3
events:<br>August 8, 1990 in Edmonton, Canada<br>August 9, 1990 in
Calgary, Canada<br>February 6,1993 in Auburn Hills,
Michigan*<br>This 2/6/93 game in Auburn Hills was the last
Rol-<br>lerGame (T-Bird) event skated. <br>Al 3 events were
T-Birds vs. RGI All-Stars.
I'm also looking forward to RG2K. I hope that a legimitate network picks them up.{something that comes to Memphis}. I have always been a fan of Roller Games...

My favorite Roller Game General Manager was John<br>Hall of the L.A. T-Birds. When John was a skater<br>he was 1 of the finest blockers & playmakers in <br>the...
Personally, my favorite was John Parker, and here I have a question for the people who were on the inside in those days. When he was in charge of the Northern...
I think when John Parker skated in the original<br>International Roller Derby League in the 1960's<br>they knicknamed him "Porky" but when he switched<br>to...
I saw the recent posts about RollerGames managers. How can all of you overlook the best manager of all? That's right... I'm talking about none other than MIZZ...
I recall too John Parker being called "Porky" when he played for the Texas Outlaws along with "Killer" Ken Willis and Lester Quarles as GM. He brought them to...
John Parker then became coach of the New York Chiefs, and was known as the "Chief". I think he may have played with the Chiefs in his younger days too and the...
In Detroit they called Leroy's team the "Dynamic Brooklyn Devils," shades of the old Derby (Seltzer might've sued had he found out!) One of my favorite teams, ...
Thanks for the info gidodger.<br><br>In Philly they were known as the Detroit Devils with Leroy "Badboy" Gonzalez at the helm and Diane Syverson as his ...
That's right, the Bucks. I think they lasted about two years; a number of teams came into Detroit, including the Warriors with Buddy Jr and King Trotter, and ...
Just wondering, who was the skating team that you loved to watch the most. Granted, I've only been a roller derby fan since the '80s, but my favorite team of ...
As already stated, I'm an old IRDL fan and my favorite team was the NE Braves with Ronnie Robinson, Thumper Woodberry, Margie Laszlo etc. However, as far as ...
That team although very good could have never competed with the T-Birds or the Warriors of the 70s. T-Birds with Ralphie, Big John Johnson, Danny Reilly, Sam ...
djones90.....I would like to say that Roller Games that I skated(from the 70's-the 80's) in, was never a wrestling on skates. I resent the impalcatition that...
The only Roller Games I was familiar with was what I saw on some UHF Spanish TV station ( I believe it was channel 47 here in NYC ) in the early 70s, and to me...
I'm afraid I'm with you on this one, IRDLfan. When our local stations switched from the Derby to the Games because the Bucks were coming, I was outraged--fake...
To rollerderbyman, I did not mean to offend you or anyone else who has ever skated in RollerGames with my comments in message 35. Be assured that I do have a...
I remember RollerGames. And of course Miss Georgia Hase. Which I might add is a Great gal if you ask me. :0)<br><br>But anyways. I don't see RGI as being ...
To djones90..Maybe, I came on a little strong. I will agree with you to a point in the late 80's (87-89) it did get a little far fetch. With the alligator pit,...
I don't want you 2 thinking I am putting down RollerGames. For I will will never do that. Since I have the utmost respect for all the skaters who skated for RG...
Please be aware of the fact that I do not fault the skaters in Roller Games and Roller Jam for the final product. It's the people in charge who determine what...
IMHO am hoping ARDL does in deed make a return.<br><br>And also understands the frustration as well.<br><br>Which is at a all time high. In the AOL message...
It's been my experience that there are or were two<br>distinct groups of fans where professional skating<br>is concerned: Fans of Rollergames that weren't...
I have often wondered how "legitimate" the IRDL games were. There were, after all, points scored in the midst of shenanigans, like skating between guys' legs ...
It would probably have to change. Considering that too many poeple are aclimated to the pro wrestling storyline kind of thing. Where you have your faces and...
