Texas RollerGirls
January 30, 2006
11:00 a.m., Rock'n'Rollerderby Time
Austin, Texas, USA, Planet Earth
Whew! It may be called "off-season," but we've barely taken a break! We
just can't resist the lure of Playland and our quads rollin' around the
track and bashing into each other... Here's the latest from the Texas
Rollergirls!
QUEENS OF ALL MEDIA
We've got two exciting media appearances this week -- ESPN radio and
the Today show on NBC -- and new podcasts!
Tuesday afternoon (1/31) from 4:30 until they kick 'em off the air,
four of your favorite Texas Rollergirls will chat it up with Gregg Henson
and Dave Tepper on ESPN Radio 1530/1260 AM. Don't miss Misty Meaner,
Sparkle Plenty, Dirty Deeds, and Melicious on "The Show With No Name."
You never know what these girls might say when they get their turn to
rock the mic! Visit ESPN Radio online at [http://www.espnaustin.com].
Then Wednesday morning, February 1, your Texas Rollergirls will be
featured on the Today show in an "American Stories" segment with legendary
reporter Bob Dotson. (He's won Emmy and Edward R. Murrow Awards,
y'all!) The NBC crew visited a Texas Rollergirls' practice, followed Hydra to
work, and filmed our amazing bout against Tucson. In Austin, the Today
show is on KXAN, Time-Warner channel 4, from 7:00-9:00 a.m. Set your
Tivo!
Check out the Texas Rollergirls' FREE podcasts! Just go to iTunes,
select Music Store, then choose Podcast from "Choose Genre." Type "Roller
Derby" in the search field on the left side of the screen and you'll get
two Texas Rollergirls podcasts: our commercial featuring some of your
favorite Hell Marys and Honky Tonk Heartbreakers, and a second podcast
with highlights from our killer bout against Tucson.

Special thanks to Punk Rock Phil for making the podcasts a reality!
SMACK PACK
Season Tickets for the 2005 season are still available, and they're a
GREAT deal! The "Member" pack is just $70 dollars -- that's a $35
savings! -- and gets you VIP treatment. And the "Executive" pack is even
better. Both SMACK PACKS come with all kinds of goodies to show our love.

WHAMMY AWARD WINNERS & PHOTOS
You might not have recognized us -- in our heels and coiffed hair,
minus the helmets, sweaty pads, and purple bruises -- but it was us... the
one-and-only Texas Rollergirls at our Third Annual Whammy Awards.
Momo's Club never looked so good.
Big kisses of thanks to all the fans, friends, and family who joined in
our celebration. And a standing O (That's ovation, y'all. Tsk, tsk.) to
all of the evening's award recipients. Every Texas Rollergirl is a
winner, but some of 'em got to take home a trophy, too.
See the list of winners and lots of gorgeous photos here:
