Let's Work Together To Bring Banked-Track Roller Sports Back To TV!
Hey Roller Fans...It has been some 19 years since ROLLERGAMES was on the air with fresh, new episodes. ROLLERJAM was another great series that lasted several years--but it, too, faded many years ago. Don't you think that it's time to bring back banked-track Roller Sports? I'm working hard to do so, and that's why I've created this website! (Thanks to the RGI for seeing the benefit of my using its domain for this fansite. I appreciate it!).
I also think that it is time for all teams and leagues to come TOGETHER to create the best possible TV program. That is another one of my goals. Keep in mind that I am not associated with any one team or organization. I don't own or operate the TBirds, the Bombers, or any other legacy team. I'm just a man on a mission to bring derby back to TV! So, I can have a clear head as to how to put all of the right elements together to present the very best of Roller Sports to the nation!
Thanks for your support and feedback. Together, we can make this happen! And, my friends, that would simply be DEVASTATING! drs

I'm literally 2 years late to the day on this discussion but here goes anyway. I'm very out of touch with current skaters. You know how rDerby has the family thing locked down. I'd need to ressurrect skaters for this. GM Buddy Akinson Sr., coach Jim…
My bad....I thought she was on the Bad Attitude. I think Patsy was on Bad Attitude. Oh well, I'm an old fart and can't remember all the details, but I just love Derby. :-) BTW....Patsy started skating in 1976, but didn't start skating in a bigger ro…
Back then, Stephanie Garcia was continuing a tradition that the late great Ann Calvello started, setting the standards of "punk appeal". In case anyone didn't know, Ms. Garcia skated for the "VIOLATORS", her make-up job reflected the lightning bolt…
WOW!!! Steph is ROCK in the look!! LUV IT!!
I started off by watching the old T-Bird games in the mid 70's, then started going to the games in the mid 80's....from about late 1984-mid 1986. I didn't go to any games until the summer of 2008, and it's a game I still love to watch. I saw when Pa…
Yeah I'm a youngin so while Rollergames was going on, it was the only thing I knew of Roller derby in general except for my parents "back in the day' stories of Roller Derby past. I'm meeting and playing with all of these exceptional, and incredible…
Yup....Stephanie was on a team called "Bad Attitude". I think the personality she has on track, fit right in with the name of the team. She kicked ass and took names! Hard to believe that Rock and Rollergames was almost 20 years ago. We're talking t…
