A review of the second game of the May 20th Bout.
The Bayou City Bosses defeated the Burlesque Brawlers. The rookie dominated Brawlers are getting better every week and turning into a fan favorite despite (beacause of?) their underdog status.
128 Bayou City Bosses (2-0)
43 Burlesque Brawlers (0-2)
A review of the first game of the May 20th Bout.
137 Psych Ward Sirens (1-1)
116 Machete Betties (1-1)
The unofficial score from my accounting:
137 Psych Ward Sirens (1-1)
115 Machete Betties (1-1)128 Bayou City Bosses (2-0)
43 Burlesque Brawlers (0-2)
I thought it was interesting, too, that both bouts had 32 jams each.

Got Houston Derby pics? Got Flickr? Share them with the Colonel Pod Flickr Pool!
The Colonel is out of town, so Bill Shirley elicits the help of Roller Derby Phil in Austin for some preview information on the Mayhem bout.
Several miles on skates in 93° weather is nothing to the Houston Roller Derby skaters. If you came out to the 20th Annual Art Car Parade you got a chance to see the derby girls cruising the streets with the Art Cars.
If you didn’t make it, you should go ahead and put the art car parade on your calendar for next year. It’s a Houston must-see event!

This is the new site of the Colonel’s Roller Derby Roundup. You can access the audio content at the switchpod page, until we get things running here again.
We had “issues” with the switchpod blog, so we’ve moved to here. We’ll try to backfill the content as we can.
Edit [May 9] - I have post-dated entries for each of the earlier podcasts.
