As a member of a derby team I am shocked and offended at the utter disrespect of the sport layed out here in this article. As a "journalist?" one would expect more in depth research on a topic before spouting off with such jibberish. I am just glad that I did not read this after an intense two hour practice when I was soaked with sweat and utterly fatiqued beyond imagination, it may have called for a road trip. The women of this sport work very hard the get their bodies in shape, learn the rules of the organization and compete in bouts. There is a wonderful comradere amongst all that participate. The author of this ridulously poorly written article should visit www.wftda.com and do some reading and find out what this magnificent sport is all about and maybe simply do a few interviews with some find derby girls. And did he say "bit**es". I don't think he earned that right. He can say it in the article but they wont let me say it in my comment. "Nice"
