I don't know of any tour in the Carolina's but I hate to see your question go unanswered. I remember something early last year that a young man by the name of...
Well, you more than likely didnt see it. It was a banner on their site that stood up on the first page of their site. It stood for only ttwo weeks. Yes, i...

Hi Amy, who is Irene Pons? and you should'nt tease us with a bikini contest and then when I click on to it, nothing happens! ... is her email with allt he...
The correct URL is http://www.tropi-ties.com/. None of the contestants are identified on the web site, so you'll have to take ag424's word for it that Irene...
Then the only solution to that is to not stage it and play it for real. No, I'm not talking about changing anything in the way that it is played. All you...
Love it or hate, there certain facts you need to know about the rock n roller games, or alligator pit, or wall of death games as it was sometimes called. Bill...
The question should be why WOULD'NT somebody want to buy it. Joan Weston was being hailed as the second most popular female athlete at the time next to Billie...
I remember going to Madison Square Garden for what I thought would be a New York Chiefs game, another in a long series of Chief's games I went to at the...
Naw, I'm sorry, I've got great respect for you and appreciate your contributions, but you're not answering my question. You said Seltzer refused opportunities...
hi, you know another side of this problem was the lack of skaters skating in for and in other cities? I mean a lot of skaters refused to go on the road...
If you see my previous post, you have seen what I have said about making it a legitamate sport. I put details of how to play it for real without changing one...
Two books come to mind. Frank Deford's "Five Strides on the Banked Track" is a classic; written in the late sixties, it covers the history and has lots of...

When you offered your question back in February, John O., several people offered opinions; I don't think there's an "answer" per se. I think the main reasons...
Earlier this year I did mention at various clubs(roller derby and regular skating ones) about how in a few small towns in Manitoba, Canada, a bunch of teenage...
Well, yeah, you're absolutely right, and I'd been to that URL and read their story. But the operative phrase here is that the kids gave up when RollerJam got...
hey man, Frank Deford's book isn't bad, but it does not give you much (you can tell he's a real derby fan) so it only gives you hand full of pics of famous ...
I don't kow why they just did'nt all the RD to RJ book, the autobiography of Jerry Seltzer! I though it was a grave insult not include Rollergames but also all...
HJ, I think it's an issue we talk about a lot here--we who patronize these boards are about the only fans left. Deford's book and "Very Simple Game" both came...
As you said about the movie 'Derby', the filmakers felt that the skaters lives were ordinary and decided to make the story on an outsider. But I beg to differ....
Those kids in Canada had the right idea. If they had the right backing, they may have had something going. But there also is no reason why it could not be...
Well, you've touched on an interesting point, because *I* think baseball is boring. I've followed it all my life (I'm 46), I could quote you chapter and verse...
I believe Coppage wrote about that last item, and AIDS wasn't around until the mid-70's. The other stuff might well have been true, and a "realistic" book or...
I've been a fan of the sport since the late 60's. At the time the movie Derby came out, I was quite young and never did see it during its initial release....
