OK, so I am at a still in mixed emotions about this bout. Brew City is tough as nails, the completely kicked our asses in the first half. We had trouble putting points on the board, we were frazled, we were sloppy, across the board struggling. I really do not want to talk about this bout, if you want my personal opinions about what right/wrong, you can email me: relewis@sk8intheface.com

However, I do know that is just what you came for, so for that reason I am putting the complete ring side bout cast for your perusal. All I am going to say is, holy shit you girls put up a fight! You guys stuck with it, and even though you didn’t win, noone can question your heart! I was in absolute amazement watching this bout; at one point I was cursing at the screeen, the next I am jumping up and down flipping out (that is when I broke an expensive glass globe stand)! So yeah, I freaking loved watching this bout, even if it didn’t go the way I had hoped. So after the break is the full ringside boutcast.

 
10:22 Mercy Less:  Good Morning!
10:23 Hambone:  Howdy – hambone here with Nottie from Belligham, she’s having technical issues so i’m solo for the moment
10:23
10:23 Mercy Less:  So, welcome to another fine day of DNN broadcasts from Feasterville!
10:23 Hambone:  Brew City in black, Burning River in blue, warming up.   No hangovers in evidence
10:23 Mercy Less:  Who won the afterparty last night?
 
10:24 Hambone:  Not me – Ginger Snap and I hung out with Lucille Ballistic (Gotham sophomore) and her husband Bobalu at the HOOTERS in Bensalem.   Good times.
10:24 Hambone:  Anyone who knows Lucille knows that she does like her Hooters.
10:24 Hurt Reynolds:  who doesn’t, really
10:24 Mercy Less:  Whoa.
10:24 Hambone:  apparently there was a big crowd at the All-American Grill or whatever that big place is called
10:24 Hurt Reynolds:  oh, you mean the restaurant.
10:25 Hambone:  So as for yesterday – Burning River is coming off a big victory over washington D.C., and Brew City lost a narrow one to Minnesota
10:25 Hambone:  I personally have never seen either of these teams so that either means good objective fresh eyes, or total cluelessness.
10:26 Hambone:  Nottie putting away her laptop … waiting for a new one, I guess, from Gnosis.
10:26 Hambone:  Today’s referees:
Cal Basa – Angel City (head ref)

Pachinko – Gotham (outside)
Doc Holla J – Sintral Florida (jam)

Off Kilter – Tallahassee (inside)
Major N Fraction – Connecticut (jam)
 
10:26 Hurt Reynolds:  good thing hambone can type like a banshee :)
10:26 Mercy Less:  Were you able to use your superref powers to get rosters?
10:26 Hambone:  and have opinions faster than that
10:27 [Comment From Grand Poobah]
I think I last saw Brew City in January of 2007? Something like that. Maybe late 2006. Watched ‘em get their WFTDA cherry popped in Vegas.

10:29 [Comment From Grand Poobah]
Is Bootsi out there in the audience?
10:30 Hambone:  For future reference we’re likely to be referring to these teams as “BLUE” and “BLACK” rather than “BURNING RIVER” and “BREW CITY”
10:30 Hambone:  saving precious keystrokes
10:30 Hambone:  Bootsi – who dat?   I see Gridlock Gabe and Bobby Narco… lots of D.C. girls waiting for their bout forthcoming…
10:31 Hambone:  Gnosis’s backup laptop is UP with 15 sceonds to spare!

10:35 Hambone:  (i.e. a jesus fish with little feet)
10:36 Hambone:  roster for brew city:
10:36 Hurt Reynolds:  Well, definitely this bout has potential tournament implications… there are several teams in the WFTDA North Central region that are all very much in competitive proximity and are all potentially on the bubble.   That includes both of these teams
10:36 Hambone:  24 carrie a hacksaw … 60kV HighDVoltage… 1 Anna Krajcik… 99 becky the butcher …

I am a huge Soeul fan! She works amazing in all three dimensions! She ducks down to under two feet to evade a hit!
10:45 Mercy Less:  I’m a huge fan of her derby name :)
10:45 Hambone:  off the bat neither team clearly better at any particular thing, yet – black jammers just squirting out better and maybe blocking better in the pack rear
10:45 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i agree, hambone.
10:45 Hambone:  yay it’s nice to agree

10:50 Hambone:  22:13 left

10:51 Nottie A. Saiwant:  romaniac v. eva lucien
10:51 Hambone:  time out over.   Eva Lucien jams for blue versus Romaniac for Brew City

10:53 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rhoda ruin v. stroker ace
10:53 Hambone:  new jam – stroker ace vs rhoda ruin
10:53 Hambone:  21-1 score
10:53 Hambone:  stroker ace pushes rhoda out to force a not-lead call
10:53 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker has no help inthe pack, stuck way back
10:53 Hambone:  black jammer has one girl to beat – ivanna destroya
10:53 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rhoda out on 20
10:53 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but not lead
10:53 Hambone:  and she gets told to lay off on 20′.   black jammer is out first but not lead for ahving been pushed out early
10:54 Hambone:  burning river facing a big wall of black blockers
10:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  strker is trying to make her own way through the pack
10:54 Hambone:  she attempts to call it, she’s not lead
10:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but is seriously impeded
10:54 Hambone:  good call by the ref Maor N Fraction, he didn’t bite
10:54 Hambone:  NOW she’s lead
10:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  and very obviously frustrated
10:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker finally out and mummbling to herself on her way back to the pack
10:54 Hambone:  big hit by Professor booty against black jammer, but she stays up and keeps working.
10:55 Nottie A. Saiwant:  both teams have full packs now
10:55 Hambone:  stroker goes down, starting over on her first scoring pass
10:55 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but it doesn’t look like stroker is getting any help still
10:55 Hambone:  we have a major on 14 black – reina pain
10:55 Nottie A. Saiwant:  servin’ justice and poptart   were all kinds of all over her
10:55 Hambone:  stroker might have been wise to call that jam earlier
10:55 Hambone:  two black in the box, no blue.   big opportunity here for blue
10:55 [Comment From Feisty Pfister]
Brewcity has been playing really as a team this year and you can tell when they building those walls and control pack speed
10:55 [Comment From Our Man Flip]
The only lead that Burning River has gotten was as the 2nd jammer through.
10:55 [Comment From nasty canasta]
Justice is so strong a blocker! When she hits you- you feel it down to your dental fillings!

10:56 Hambone:  erin is through and lead thanks to big help from professor booty holdling back rejected seoul.
10:56 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but seoul is close behind
10:56 Nottie A. Saiwant:  and gaining
10:56 Hambone:  blue wall in front and back surrounds 2 black blockers
10:56 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin wisely takes a couple and calls it
10:57 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i don’t think we can count burning river out of this bout.   not by a longshot
10:57 Hambone:  but blue abandons that wall int he back to attack the middle black blockers – not clear that was the right decision, front blockers would have been better off putting their butts in the black blockers laps
10:57 Hambone:  slowing it down for a quick 4 instead of what they got
10:57 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw v. eva lucien
10:57 Hambone:  eva lucien against hacksaw jamming
10:57 Hambone:  hacksaw just taken down by coco sparx

10:59 Hambone:  it works as 68 blue is lead
10:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker ducks out for lead
10:59 Hambone:  blue wall in front is going to be tough for black jammer.
10:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  romaniac playing pinball through the pack
10:59 Hambone:  take-out pushins romaniac out and she goes down.   This is the way blue needs to play
10:59 Hambone:  finally black jammer romo is out.
10:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  romaniac is out of the pack
10:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker ace scoring
10:59 Hambone:  68 blue jammer storker ace is scoring, probably won’t get out, calls it for either 3 or 4-0
10:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  take s a couple and calls it before romaniac can get there
11:00 Hambone:  nice work Cleveland, really repairing the problems they had early

11:01 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin garguiouloiuloliu
11:01 Hambone:  BIG hit by 02 serving justice into the top of pretty scarrie
11:01 Hambone:  might have hit her chin… yes, scarrie didn’t like that, pointing at her hin
11:01 Nottie A. Saiwant:  voltage through for a scoring pass
11:01 Nottie A. Saiwant:  calls it
11:01 Hambone:  scarrie complaining slightly to the refs for missing that

11:02 Hambone:  we have an official review of some sort?   don’t see captains in it
11:02 Hambone:  head ref Cal Basa instructing his refs to make some adjustments in their caling, it looks like
11:02 Nottie A. Saiwant:  interestingly the refs are standing in the track for this discussion
11:02 Nottie A. Saiwant:  instead of in the infield
11:02 Hambone:  so far the reffing has been pretty good, just that high block and a major missed cut to my untrained eye
11:03 [Comment From Skurvi Pyrate]
I like the 4.0 rule set. games run smoother
11:03 Hambone:  hanna grenade’s arms are going to get tired of indicating the official time out sign
11:03 Hambone:  Izzy here over our shoulder being a kibbitzer.   say howdy, Izzy
11:03 Hambone:  head ref now explaining something to the captains
11:04 Nottie A. Saiwant:  we’re back in action
11:04 Hambone:  we have an illegal procedure major against blue Scarrie for beigno n the track inappropriately, that seems to be the result of that
11:04 Hambone:  wall of black 14 and 68 really making a big marrier for eva
11:04 Nottie A. Saiwant:  brew city is pretty effective at that back wall
11:04 Hambone:  wall of three now.   Eva needs HELP
11:05 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stopping the jammer before she can even get really in to the pack
11:05 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rhoda is through and lead
11:05 Hambone:  black jammer held back by destroya briefly and gets lead – blue blockers need to go play OFFENSE
11:05 [Comment From nasty canasta]
It is nice no longer having to deal with the dead stop that was the “Jammer-less Jam”!
11:05 Nottie A. Saiwant:  blue needs to give their jammer some support back there
11:05 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rhoda through for a grand slam
11:05 Hambone:  black jammer with a 5
11:05 Hambone:  eva still stuck
11:05 Nottie A. Saiwant:  and everyone turns there head and lets her have another grand slam
11:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva is still stuck at the back
11:06 Hambone:  blue blockers take each other out – halochic bowls over soul eater and it takes them a full lap to get back into the action
11:06 Hambone:  now halochick takes out the black jammer, nice
11:06 Hambone:  this back pack is really staying focused, blue blockers in panic mode
11:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rhoda knocked down, but gets through for another grand slam
11:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  that’s three, right?
11:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva didn’t get out of the pack at all on that one
11:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker ace v. rejected seoul
11:07 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw dancing behind the jammer line, looking for the 4th minor
11:07 Hambone:  rejected seoul jams against stroker ace.   intention fourth minor by black blocker.  
11:07 Nottie A. Saiwant:  seoul out for lead, but stroker is close behind
11:07 Hambone:  which, in my opnion, is a mistake because they already had one skater in the box.   Sacrificing a single blocker when you have 4 is okay, but when you have 3 can be fatal.
11:08 Hambone:  it could bite them now as it’s a new 4-2 jam for blue
11:08 Hambone:  score 44-12 now for black
11:08 Hambone:  8:10 left
11:08 Hambone:  blue needs to take advantage of that mistake.   There’s lots of time left on the clocks for those two black blockers
11:08 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin gargoulo v. jackie onihilate
11:08 Hambone:  blue surrounds the two black and their jammer erin is through pretty quickly.  
11:08 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin shnuck through quickly on that one
11:08 Hambone:  still 4-2, now 4-3
11:08 Hambone:  black jammer not through.   This is what blue needed, bad
11:09 Hambone:  lap point
11:09 Hambone:  now a full strength pack
11:09 Nottie A. Saiwant:  this burning river pack is focusing on breaking up the back wall, looks like
11:09 Nottie A. Saiwant:  jackie o sent to the box
11:09 Nottie A. Saiwant:  power jam for burning river
11:09 Hambone:  fourth minor by black jammer, looks like she was already been called ou before what looked cut-riffic
11:09 Hambone:  black jammer in box, this is what blue needs, again
11:09 Nottie A. Saiwant:  jammer stuck behind a front wall
11:10 Nottie A. Saiwant:  while burning rver tries to trap a blocker to slow the pack
11:10 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin coming around for another pass
11:10 Hambone:  they gotta let erin go, Major N fraction is indicating “lead”, not “points” ?   confusing.   but she’s got 10 i think
11:10 Hambone:  and maybe 3 more
11:10 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but brew city is racing
11:10 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva lucien v. rejected seoul
11:11 Hambone:  see?   hambone pats himself on the back for analysing that intentional fourth minor as a BAD IDEA back there at the beginning of the jam.   it created a 4-2 mismatch a jam later and resulted in a huge point swing.
11:11 Hambone:  44-22 score, 5:10 left
11:11 Nottie A. Saiwant:  both jammers out at the same time, seoul called lead
11:11 Hambone:  blu and black both out near the same time.   Jam refs look at each other a bit before Doc Holla J calls brew city lead.   Looked right to me
11:11 Hambone:  quick calloff
11:11 Nottie A. Saiwant:  seoul hits the pack 10 feet before eva.   takes a couple and calls it
11:11 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw v. stroker ace
11:11 Hambone:  Stroker Ace now for cleveland vs. Carrie A Hacksaw
11:12 Hambone:  jinx, i owe you a coffee
11:12 Hambone:  45-22, black picked up 1 point in the last jam
11:12 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker trying for the inside line
11:12 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but taken down by servin justice
11:12 Hambone:  nice powervulf jamming by stoker ace until servin justice blonks her down
11:12 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw out but not lead
11:12 Hambone:  stroker starting over, still now with servin justice to beat
11:12 Hambone:  17 black fourth minor
11:12 Hambone:  finally stroker is out
11:13 Hambone:  black scoring, big blue wall of four.   She navigates past two by herelf before getting help
11:13 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker coming back for points
11:13 Nottie A. Saiwant:  gets through the pack quickly and calls it
11:13 Nottie A. Saiwant:  nicely played
11:13 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin gargiulo v. romaniac
11:13 Hambone:  stroker gets more points than the black jammer, despite black jammer’s efforts to get through a 4-blocker wall by herself
11:13 Nottie A. Saiwant:  49-26 brew city 2:23
11:14 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin gariulo out fast and called lead
11:14 Hambone:  blue walls all over as erin gets through.   4-2 advantage for blue blockers
11:14 Hambone:  big low outside block by professor booty, major
11:14 Hambone:  finally black has numbers in the pack 3-3 soon to be 4-3
11:14 Nottie A. Saiwant:  romaniac out but erin is already scoring
11:14 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin takes a couple and calls it
11:14 Hambone:  high D Voltage spun herself around trying to hit down erin
11:15 Hambone:  now its eva lucien versus…?
11:15 Hambone:  #14 – reina pain
11:15 Hambone:  3 on 3 in the pack
11:15 Hambone:  reina hits eva lucien and now is out and lead
11:15 Hambone:  eva a 1/3 lap behind
11:15 Nottie A. Saiwant:  reina jumps past the blue pivot for lead
11:15 Hambone:  3 on 3 pack still
11:15 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva is 1/2 pack behind
11:16 Nottie A. Saiwant:  reina smokes her way through the pack on the inside and calls it
11:16 Nottie A. Saiwant:  that was kind of hot
11:16 [Comment From Mumble]
the announcer saying “Bitches” after every other sentence is cracking me up.
11:16 Hambone:  reina coming through – the killustrator and soul eater had a wall in front to hold her back but they let it open up too wide and can’t hold it, reina gets through and calls it
11:16 Nottie A. Saiwant:  and that’s the period
11:16 Hambone:  that’s the period – 54-31 for brew city
11:16 Mercy Less:  Let’s talk a little bit about our fabulous DNN Sponsors! We could not bring you all the derby goodness from Feasterville without them!

Atom Wheels, the official wheels of WFTDA, fiveonfive magazine, the official magazine of WFTDA, and RollerCon, simply the best learning opportunity of the year for skaters and refs, and one hell of a great derby love week!

And, of course, thanks so much Hambone and Nottie for bringing us this great coverage so early in the morning!

Good job by brewcity keeping forward in the pack so that the other jammer cannot score!!
11:17 [Comment From nasty canasta]
God I love Reina!!
11:17 [Comment From WonderBread]
Are the outside pack refs hungover from last night, I can’t stand seeing consistently terrible calls
11:18 Hambone:  So burning river did a great job taking care of business when they had 4-2 advantages and 4-3 advantages.   Full strength vs. full strength I think brew city has a bit of an advantage personnel-wise, especially with Servin Justice hitting big in the front.   But if Blue can keep poking at them and poking at them and making them foul and put themselves in the box, they can definitely come back.
11:19 Nottie A. Saiwant:  there were definitely a few jams where burning river could have given more support to their jammers   that brew city back wall can be formidible.
11:19 [Comment From nasty canasta]
If the ref didn’t see it- it didn’t happen!! On the other hand, if the ref said you did it- then you did!! Our refs are what keep this sport a sport!
11:20 Hambone:  hewlett smackard here observes that cleveland seems to be more obsessed with low-percentage big hits
11:20 Hambone:  overall both jammers are playing it pretty smart in terms of call-offs, with the exception of that one burning river jam about halfway through, i forget who it was getting beaten up and late lead
11:21 [Comment From Feisty Pfister]
Good Luck Brewcity! Give ‘em hell! I’m off to B-Team practice… Woo-hoo!
11:22 [Comment From apple smacks]
yeah brewcity bruisers … beer, beer, beer!!!!
11:22 [Comment From nasty canasta]
Go Battlestars!! (Brewcity B-team)
11:22 Hambone:  nottie observes “o my god, i am so in love with ivanna spankin right now” and dashes off, presumably either to buy something or to give her a kiss or both
11:22 Hambone:  ah and they’re back
11:22 Hambone:  and izzy pop is off getting us some caffeine.   yay izzy.
11:23 Hambone:  ahh it was coffee that ivanna brought to nottie.   woo.   ivanna sporting the Team Awesome look
11:23 [Comment From Skurvi Pyrate]
San Diego loves Ivanna Spankin too!!!!
11:23 [Comment From Toni]
Go Brewcity, get em Pop-Tart
11:23 Nottie A. Saiwant:  oh ya.   team awesome is playing sparkly people in a couple hours
11:23 Mercy Less:  Funtimes!
11:23 Hambone:  So far I’ve been real impressed with Professor Booty and CoCo Sparx in the pack — small packages banging against the slightly larger brew city crew
11:24 Hambone:  Reina Pain has been all over the track, Moby Nipps had a great first few jams, didn’t see her lately.  
11:24 Nottie A. Saiwant:  this is the first time i’ve seen either of these teams, so i don’t have much to go on
11:24 Hambone:  Rejected Seoul very active on all fronts
11:24 Nottie A. Saiwant:  bui’ve been enjoying watching servin justice in the front
11:25 Nottie A. Saiwant:  she had a booty block on one of the blue jammers that slowed her nearly to a stop
11:25 Hambone:  Ivanna Destroya looks like she has great potential as a front-of-pack player, with a wide wide wingspan a la Sparkle Plenty
11:25 Hambone:  (or, for you younger generation out there, a la Fisti Cuffs)
11:26 Hambone:  erin gargiulo has impressed with her determination, as has stroker ace – taking lickings and keep on ticking
11:26 Hambone:  Nottie, what nice things do you have to offer the Brew City jamming crew?
11:27 [Comment From nasty canasta]
Is the announcer saying “Vicious” or “Bitches”? I cannot quite tell, but, man, is it entertaining!!
11:27 Nottie A. Saiwant:  well, i think that is entirely possible for burning river to come back in period 2
11:27 Mercy Less:  Her name is Bitches Bruze
11:27 Hambone:  entirely within the realm of metaphysical possibility, yes
11:27 Mercy Less:  She asked to be referred to on the mic as Bitches rather than Bruze – her call
11:27 Nottie A. Saiwant:  if they are able to control the pack while also assisting their jammers
11:27 Hambone:  i wanna give a shout out to major n fraction for his deft handling of the attempted call-off by his jammer in the 1st period, she really tried to sell it
11:27 Hambone:  and really believed it, too i think
11:28 Hambone:  Okay we’re almost ready again – eva lucien against reina pain
 
11:28 Nottie A. Saiwant:  jammers are lining up for period 2
11:28 Nottie A. Saiwant:  itching to go, it looks like
11:28 [Comment From Big Tom]
Good Morning From Austin! Coffee a smoke and Derby!!!! Thanks DNN!!!!! =)
11:28 Hambone:  reina pain has an annoying habit of lining up kinda sideways so we can’t see her number.   getting goot at recognizing her sillouette
11:28 Hambone:  (forgot an ‘h’ in that word somewhere – mercy?)
11:28 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva lucien v. reina pain
11:28 Nottie A. Saiwant:  here we go
11:28 Hambone:  reina zoom
11:28 Hambone:  eva out too.   Black pack got all separated real fast
11:28 Nottie A. Saiwant:  reina swueezes through really quickly for lead
11:29 Mercy Less:  silhouette – I am in charge of yer missing h’s
11:29 Hambone:  4 on three for blue in the pac, black pivot now rejoins
11:29 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva is out and trying to get to the pack
11:29 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but reina is playing smart derby and calls it
11:29 Hambone:  low-scoring jam there, 1-0 black
11:29 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rejected seoul v. stroker ace
11:29 Hambone:  rejected seoul vs stroker ace now
11:29 Hambone:  55-31 score
11:29 Hambone:  full strength packs.
11:30 Nottie A. Saiwant:  butcher and killy in the front for brew city
11:30 Hambone:  lots of floating around in the pack, hard to pick out its dynamic but blue is stuck in it
11:30 Nottie A. Saiwant:  seoul is out and around before i can even type that
11:30 Nottie A. Saiwant:  and that’s a grand slam for seoul
11:30 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva out of the pack
11:30 Nottie A. Saiwant:  again, seoul takes a couple and calls it
11:30 Hambone:  grace killy in the front as black pivot shoves stroke ace but ace is through and the jam is called by seoul before ace can score
11:31 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin garguilo v. high d v9oltage
11:31 Hambone:  sorry, grace killy = anna krajcik, which is far too many consonents for these fingers to manage
11:31 Mercy Less:  Anna K?
11:31 Hambone:  black pivot trips her own jammer
11:31 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin takes advantage of the inside outside for lead
11:31 Hambone:  heighD voltage finally out by erin is looking for 4 here
11:31 Nottie A. Saiwant:  voltage out as erin hits the pack
11:31 Hambone:  and dodges to the outside and calls it.   VERY NICE.
 
11:31 Nottie A. Saiwant:  takes her 4 and calls it
11:32 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva lucien v. rhoda ruin
11:32 Hambone:  black had a wall but it wasn’t active enough, erin went around a wall of three on the right.   memo to blockers: being next to each other doesn’t mean you are building a wall.
11:32 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hambone is a smart ass
11:32 Hambone:  Servin Justice looks like her right knee hurts, hobbling to the box
11:32 Hambone:  she’s NOT comfortable
11:32 Hambone:  EMT over
11:33
11:33
11:33
11:33 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hey!   everyone should go to rollercon.
11:33 Hambone:  we have an official time out which is kinda weird since she’s “off the track” but she’s also in the box so you can’t really go on without deciding whether or not she needs a sub.   Kind of a hole in the rules, we saw this yesterday in jam 2 of detroit vs charm city when dolly rocket went down and hurt herself while committing a major.
11:33 Hambone:  jam didn’t stop because of it but… what do you do? allow a sub? for how long?
11:34 Nottie A. Saiwant:  both jammers pushed outside
11:34 Hambone:  needless to say your intrepid reporter has already asked rules.wftda.com :-)
11:34 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva through first for lead
11:34 Hambone:  blue jammer is through.   We have a major against the black jammer
11:34 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rhoda is still fighting through WAIT
11:34 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rhoda sent to the box
11:34 Nottie A. Saiwant:  on a call i didn’t notice
11:34 Hambone:  HUGE opportunity for blue – black jammer has to skate all the way around.   4-2 blocker advantage for blue, which is immediately turned into 5 by eva lucien
11:34 Nottie A. Saiwant:  this could seriously shift momentum
11:34 Hambone:  blue needs to TRAP blockers and SLOW IT DOWN
11:34 Hambone:  and they are NOT doing it
11:34 [Audio file] POWER JAM Play
11:34 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva’s got one grand slam
11:35 Hambone:  servin justice is out and forces out eva lucien
11:35 Hambone:  now blue traps ervin justice in the back
11:35 Nottie A. Saiwant:  servin justice is back in and doesn’t look to be fighting as hard
11:35 Nottie A. Saiwant:  maybe favoring her knee, but i can’t tell
11:35 Hambone:  there’s no pack when servin justice skates out of bounds in the back.   technically she destroyed the pack but it hurt her team and there’s no call
11:35 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva trying for her third pass
11:35 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but calls it before rhoda can return
11:35 Hambone:  announcers credit burning river for “slowing it down to a crawl” but that’s a pretty liberal definition of “crawl”
11:36 Hambone:  anyway, big jam for blue, now 64-48
11:36 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker v. seoul
11:36 Hambone:  full strength teams now.   Eva getting her fourth with a ‘poodle’
11:36 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva taking the easy 4th minor
11:36 Hambone:  now 4-3 favor black
11:36 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker down at the back of the pack
11:36 Nottie A. Saiwant:  seould takes a whip from killly for lead
11:36 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker down but i wasn’t watching what happened
11:36 Hambone:  rejected seoul is through, she took a big hit from soul eater who went down doing it – as smackard observed earlier, the blue hits are too hit-or-miss.
11:37 Hambone:  holy crap did i just NOW realize that this bout features a “rejected seoul” and a “soul eater” ??
11:37 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin gargiulo v. romaniac
11:37 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i win
11:37 Hambone:  new jam – erin gargiulo versus romaniac
11:37 Hambone:  two blue in the box
11:37 Nottie A. Saiwant:  68-48 brew city 22ish left
11:38 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin sent to the box
11:38 Hambone:  ivanna destroya assists her jammer out but grace killy forces erin to the infield at the last second so she can’t take advantage.   and now blue jammer is in the box for an unrelated cut
11:38 Nottie A. Saiwant:  goes diagnal from the track and they make her go all the way around the track and return
11:38 Hambone:  big big jam for black – 4-2 in the pack, with no blue jammer.   Blue blocker coco now checks in.  
11:38 Hambone:  4-3 pack now for black
11:38 [Comment From nasty canasta]
Go Romo! Go Romo!
11:38 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i got confused on that jam…
11:39 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rhoda starting on the line alone
11:39 Hambone:  black jammer calls it when eva lucien hits her in the front, probably not the best time to call it given the blocker pack advantage and the scoring lap situation
11:39 Hambone:  rhoda ruin jamming unopposed
11:39 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin gargiulo sitting for another little bit
11:39 Hambone:  black wall has haloholic trapped in the back
11:39 Nottie A. Saiwant:  brew is trying to trap a blocker
11:39 Hambone:  and blue blockers up front are unaware and earn a 20′ major, that’s professor booty with the illegal block
11:39 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but she snuck out and burning river speeds up the pack
11:40 Hambone:  again another diving-with-the-upper-body hit by blue, this time by killustrator
11:40 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but rhoda breezes by everyone for a grand slam
11:40 Nottie A. Saiwant:  and erin is back in
11:40 Hambone:  blue jammer back in, behind justice
11:40 Hambone:  justice is way out of play and earns a 20′ major, good call.
11:40 Nottie A. Saiwant:  servin justice bumps erin at 20 feet and is sent to the box to rest
11:40 Hambone:  blockers in the front on both teams in that jam needed to be much   more aware of where their teammates were
11:40 Nottie A. Saiwant:  new jam:   stroker ace vs. rejected seoul
11:40 Hambone:  both teams earning 20′ majors in the front
11:41 Hambone:  2 on 2 in the pack
11:41 Nottie A. Saiwant:  89-48 brew city 18:45 left
11:41 Hambone:  thanks to aforementioned 20′ happiness
11:41 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker goes outside and gets lead
11:41 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but seould is RIGHT there and chasing
11:41 Hambone:  blue blockers playing defense only and stroker is self-sufficient to get out 30 feet in front of seoul
11:41 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker takes the pack and calls it
11:42 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but seoul was too close and they both get 4
11:42 Hambone:  4-4 jam, stroker through it would be 4-0 but seoul slipped right through behind her to pick up four of her own.   nice work rejected seoul
11:42 Nottie A. Saiwant:  time out
11:42 Hambone:  93-52 score
11:42 Hambone:  17:58 left
11:42 Hambone:  brew city not letting burning river back into this game
11:42 Nottie A. Saiwant:  next jam is gonna be hacksaw v. eva lucien
11:42 Hambone:  and burning river blockers need to stay out of the box — mostly going for 20′ majors and big hits leading with forearms
11:43 Hambone:  official time out
11:43 Nottie A. Saiwant:  jam starts and then stops.
11:43 Nottie A. Saiwant:  what’s going on?
11:43 Hambone:  head ref cal basa conferring with…. inner voices? everyone?   looks like a short time out
11:43 Nottie A. Saiwant:  do-over
11:43 Hambone:  and we’re off again
11:43 Hambone:  black has a wall of 3 in the back
11:44 Hambone:  but now it mixes up
11:44 [Comment From nasty canasta]
I gotta shout out to Moby Nipps and Becky the Butcher! They are doing great today!
11:44 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva races on the outside.   called lead
11:44 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but hacksaw is like 2 feet away
11:44 Hambone:  Killustrator skates backward in the ref lane to rejoin action coming out of the penalty box – a new thing we saw Rat City doing friday night and which was, for now, ruled legal by the WFTDA rules commmittee in emergency conference.
11:44 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva hits the pack and calls it
11:45 Hambone:  but this referee really hopes on further review that decision is rescinded with an official clarification
11:45 Hambone:  (lobbying over)
11:45 Hambone:  SLOW pack
11:45 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin gargiulo v. romaniac
11:45 Nottie A. Saiwant:  romaniac out and lead
11:45 Hambone:  romaniac squirts out.   blue blockers having trouble operating in thick traffic
11:45 Nottie A. Saiwant:  94-55 16:00
11:45 Hambone:  Pound Anya lets the inside line go and erin is out
11:45 Nottie A. Saiwant:  romaniac calls it
11:46 [Comment From Guest]
I love that strategy, hambone. Please don’t legislate it out of existence.
11:46 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva lucien v. reina pain
11:46 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker looking for her 4th minor behind the jammers
11:46 Hambone:  just ask Pallbearer, who got smacked at full speed by a blocker flying in the backward direction in the ref lane, while he was in full speed in the other direction (in charm/detroit last night)
11:46 Nottie A. Saiwant:  reina tries outside, but pushed out
11:46 [Comment From Muffin]
Sorry, HB – that was me!
11:46 Nottie A. Saiwant:  cuts back in and is lead jammer
11:47 [Comment From nasty canasta]
Anna- Killey_ is amazingly good at that strategy. She pays attention like no one else- so you have to pay attention when you go against her!
11:47 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva danicing back and forth, trying to get past the front wall
11:47 Hambone:  allowing full speed skating in the wrong direction in the ref lane is a recipe for face-on-face collisions if you ask me.   okay back to action
11:47 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva out on 20
11:47 Hambone:  103-55 for brew city now
11:47 Hambone:  erin vs. rhoda ruin
11:48 Nottie A. Saiwant:  strange start
11:48 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin through super fast for lead
11:48 Hambone:  jam started but blockers weren’t aware
11:48 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rhoda is chasing but a half lap behind
11:48 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin calls it but rhoda was too fast
11:49 Hambone:  new jam – eva vs. seoul
11:49 Hambone:  3 on 3 pack
11:49 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva lucien v. seoul
11:49 Nottie A. Saiwant:  tight pack
11:49 Hambone:  big blue wall in front but again they are ‘next to each other’, not ‘walling up’
11:49 Nottie A. Saiwant:  seoul finds a whole and pinballs thrrough
11:49 Nottie A. Saiwant:  seould is lead
11:49 Hambone:  and black jammer slips through
11:50 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva out and jackie o flies by our table on a miss
11:50 Hambone:  another taking-yourself-out cleveland hit, this time from professor booty
11:50 Nottie A. Saiwant:  seoul through for 4 and calls it
11:50 Hambone:  stroker ace vs. carrie hacksaw
11:50 Hambone:  111-59 score, 11:10 left
11:50 Hambone:  full packs
11:50 Hambone:  wow and carrie tries to take down the blue jammer and winds up taking herself down
11:50 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw takes herself out with a jammer on jammer hit
11:51 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker out but not lead
11:51 Nottie A. Saiwant:  no lead jammer
11:51 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw chasing
11:51 Hambone:  done in the very middle of the track – not sure that was adviseable.   Blue blockers take each other out for a while with spinning hits
11:51 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw on the outside, stroker on the inside
11:51 Nottie A. Saiwant:  blockers clear the pack neck and neck
11:51 Hambone:  carrie now playing defense against stroker – is she killing time of getting her re-absorbed into the pack?   yes, the latter! nice
11:51 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw booty blocks stroker until her blockers catch up
11:51 Hambone:  but her blockers don’t hold her and they’re both out.
11:52 Nottie A. Saiwant:  smart derby is fun
11:52 Hambone:  moby blocks against professor booty to get her jammer into the pack
11:52 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw sent to the box on her 4th minor
11:52 Hambone:  carrie with a sloppy cut there and is sent to the box by major n fraction
11:52 Nottie A. Saiwant:  power jam for stroker

11:52 Nottie A. Saiwant:  brew city speeds up the pack and stroker can’t catch up
11:53 Hambone:  no jammer in the pack but blockers are being very aggressive against each other.   Black blockers do a great job of ‘not being a point’ and getting in front of the wall of blue.   so the blue jammer has to call it instead of picking up easy straggling points.
11:53 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin gargiulo all by her lonesome on the line.
11:53 Hambone:  117-66 score, 8:28 left
11:53 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw is chilling in the box
11:53 Hambone:  i don’t like that blue call-it-off in that last jam, it was a scoring lap and they NEED that.   esp with black jammer in the box
11:53 [Comment From Skurvi Pyrate]
Nottie…I have always said. A thinking skater is a sexy skater!
11:53 Hambone:  blue has a black blocker trapped and the two black blockers in front have to let erin go.   she’s out but not lead
11:53 Nottie A. Saiwant:  brew city has to let erin go on 20 feet
11:54 Hambone:  we have a fourth minor on a black blocker
11:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin scoring but hacksaw is on her first pass
11:54 Hambone:  blue through for 4
11:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin through for 4
11:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  hacksaw battling through
11:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  she’s down and starts over
11:54 Hambone:  24 pulls herself past pretty scarrie with a hip whip   but not out.   Now passes the star to shnk williams
11:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  erin in the pack again.
11:54 Hambone:  shank
11:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  through for a grand slam!
11:54 Hambone:  but shank has no more luck getting out
11:54 Nottie A. Saiwant:  confusion for a second
11:54 Hambone:  sorry, no that’s becky the butcher who got the star. 99 on the oter team
11:55 Nottie A. Saiwant:  she got an illegal procedure minor, but i’m not sure why
11:55 Hambone:  this new jammer still not out,
11:55 Nottie A. Saiwant:  that’s another grand slam for erin
11:55 Nottie A. Saiwant:  oh hey
11:55 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i missed a panty pass
11:55 Hambone:  star pass?   DRINK!
11:55 Hambone:  117-80, that was a big big jam for blue
11:56 Hambone:  6:06 left.   Blue CANNOT afford any premature calloffs during scoring passes
11:56 Hambone:  looks like a brew city time out
11:56 Hambone:  we have two black blockers in the box
11:56 Nottie A. Saiwant:  the refs like to talk to each other
11:56 Nottie A. Saiwant:  nothing new there
11:56 Hambone:  with 6 minutes left, scoring passes are like gold, they only come around once every 30-45 seconds
11:56 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva lucien v. reina pain
11:57 Hambone:  3-2 pack advantage for blue.   On the line coco and booty look determined to guard the back
11:57 [Comment From MamaBoom]
Does the announcer really have to say “bitches” so often? I’m trying to watch this with my young children… :(
11:57 Nottie A. Saiwant:  slow start for the pack
11:57 Hambone:  uh-oh, servin justice just came in out of the box.   blue wasn’t planning on that.
11:57 Nottie A. Saiwant:  brew city appears very aware that this bout is not decided yet
11:57 Hambone:  fourth minor for pound anya on black
11:57 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i approve of that
11:57 Mercy Less:  The Announcer’s name is Bitches Bruz, she is called that by her own request
11:57 Hambone:  professor booty caught looking the wrong way as reina pain sneaks past on the line
11:57 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva out on 20, but reina is lead
11:57 Hambone:  HUGE cut on the outside
11:58 Hambone:  BIG mistake by reina, no way was that gonna go unseen – multi player cut
11:58 Nottie A. Saiwant:  reina hits the pack but cuts the whole pack and is sent to the box
11:58 Nottie A. Saiwant:  so power jam for eva
11:58 Nottie A. Saiwant:  there’s a grand slam
11:58 Hambone:  and blue has five.   not lead, and scoring against a 2-blocker black pack.   EXACTLY what burning river needs.   ZIP 5 more!
11:58 Nottie A. Saiwant:  brew city is working had to control the pack speed
11:58 Nottie A. Saiwant:  and is doing it and doing it and doing it well
11:58 Hambone:  brew city actually doing the slow now, they have pound anya trapped int he back, and she’s in the box now.   ANOTEHR 5 for blue
11:59 Hambone:  15-0, HUGE
11:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  that’s the third grand glam i believe
11:59 Hambone:  maybe black got some points
11:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  well fuckin’ done, burning river
11:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  (potty mouth)
11:59 Hambone:  118-95 score now, 3:42 left
11:59 Hambone:  killustrator at the line- haven’t seen her jam so much.   two blockers for black.   black jamer is standing
11:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  the killustrator on the line
11:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  oh that is so fun
11:59 Nottie A. Saiwant:  the dillustrator is a dodge and weaver
11:59 Hambone:  blue is SLOW.   leave justice alone in the back and killustrator jukes past her as well as #10 for easy lead.   Black blocker sent to box but it’s full
12:00 Hambone:  black jammer out.  
12:00 Hambone:  servin justice now going to box
12:00 Nottie A. Saiwant:  through for 5
12:00 Hambone:  five for blue
12:00 Hambone:  black jammer finally through.   Killustrator coming through for four… if she calls it afterword i will be very angry at her
12:00 Nottie A. Saiwant:  reina is back in play and is through on her first pass
12:00 Hambone:  major low block on highdvoltage for tripping a player
12:00 Hambone:  oh no KILLUSTRATOR TO THE BOX
12:00 Nottie A. Saiwant:  both jammers sent to the box
12:01 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i am frickin lost here
12:01 Hambone:  that’s FATAL.   And she’s back out????
12:01 Hambone:  doc holla j sent her out originally but now she’s out
12:01 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i have no idea what’s going on.
12:01 Hambone:  and he seems cool with it.   brew city pack in total disarrray
12:01 Hambone:  Pop Tart was doing a little dance for some reason instead of blocking
12:01 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i think every brew city skater got sent to the box on that one
12:02 Hambone:  someone’s missing a knee pad which is not that exciting
12:02 Mercy Less:  Burning River 105, Brewcity 120 , 1ish mins left
12:02 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i really hope the video was working because i’m ot sure i can explain what just happened
12:02 Hambone:  brew city still has max package in the box
12:02 Hambone:  waiting for a score updte
12:02 Nottie A. Saiwant:  stroker on the line
12:02 Hambone:  we have an ejection on servin justice, must be 5 trips in the period
12:03 Hambone:  so that is the score, 120-105, 1:19 left yup
12:03 Nottie A. Saiwant:  refs are talking again
12:03 Hambone:  stroker ace totally capable of a 15-0 jam to tie this
12:03 Nottie A. Saiwant:  i do appreciate that they want to get it right
12:03 Hambone:  we have one black blocker and black jammer int he box
12:03 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but, my goodness, are they chatty
12:03 Hambone:  i’m still curious why blue jammer went to the box and then left it in the last jam, maybe get some clarification from doc holla j right after this
12:04 Hambone:  oh DUH hambone is stoopid, she got released when the black jammer went in.   thanks nottie
12:04 Hambone:  not used to 4.0 i guess :-)
12:04 Nottie A. Saiwant:  yay i know something!@
12:04 Hambone:  so that black jammer major = double painful
12:04 Hambone:  but also means she should be released fairly soon in this last jam
12:05 Nottie A. Saiwant:  rejected seoul is in the box with the jammer panty on
12:05 Nottie A. Saiwant:  reina has been ejected
12:05 Hambone:  reyna also ejected so rejected seoul is taking her place in the box as a jammer
12:05 Hambone:  both reina and servin justice out for 5 trips
12:05 Nottie A. Saiwant:  this could be big
12:05 Hambone:  rejected seoul is probably out in 20 seconds? 15? guessing
12:06 Hambone:  here we go
12:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva on the line
12:06 Hambone:  4-2 pack for blue. They trap grace killy in the back and eva has hacksaw to pass.   she does it
12:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  eva out on 20
12:06 Hambone:  eva is lead, black players still on bench
12:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  burning river is trying hard to slow the pack
12:06 Hambone:  brew city doing a great job of forcing a fast pack
12:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but brew city is pushing them
12:06 Hambone:  there’s five
12:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  one grand slam
12:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but seoul is standing
12:06 Hambone:  grace and hacksaw in the front forcing speed, nice work black
12:06 Hambone:  black jammer is out
12:06 Nottie A. Saiwant:  seould’s in
12:07 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but eva’s working on her second pass
12:07 Hambone:  she jumped in in a bad spot, should ahve come in closer to the pack to get on scoring lap faster
12:07 Nottie A. Saiwant:  full pack for brew city
12:07 Hambone:  major by hacksaw
12:07 Hambone:  blue working in points 5-10
12:07 Hambone:  seoul not out yet
12:07 Hambone:  now she’s out, major 20′ on ivanna destroya
12:07 Nottie A. Saiwant:  seoul out
12:07 Nottie A. Saiwant:  114-120
12:07 Hambone:  eva now has 4 points, didn’t lap the other jammer.   it’s 9-0 so far
12:08 Hambone:  brew city ais scoring now and that’s it
12:08 Nottie A. Saiwant:  seould at the pack
12:08 Nottie A. Saiwant:  but that’s the game
12:08 Nottie A. Saiwant:  holy crap
12:08 Hambone:  brew city with no points but that was a 9-0, they needed 15
12:08 Nottie A. Saiwant:  that was a strong comeback, just a couple minutes too late
12:08 Hambone:  brew city hangs on by their fingernails
12:08 Nottie A. Saiwant:  well played on both sides!

12:09 Nottie A. Saiwant:  yay, thanks DNN, for having me!
 
12:09 Hambone:  brew city jammer coming out of the box made what was almos a huge mistake by rejoining the action the moment she was released — which delayed her scoring lap by a good 20-30 seconds

  1. R.E., the BRRG’s are really lucky to have someone who cares so much about them. I heard the announcers/commentators mention “Turn Two” fans cheering their heads off more than once during the bout – so you are the other Turn Two Boys were well represented. Please keep the SK8 in the Face updates coming – thanks! Cheers!
