  Funny, I was thinking the other day that the Harriet comments section is quite a bit like Roller Derby.

  Would that we were a bunch of tuff chix with wrist guards and elbow pads! More people might be inclined to play.

  Harriet, at 21, is already a veteran of many sports including women’s football. “I have never experienced a sport like it,” she says of roller derby. “It’s very empowering and there’s a much more communal feel to it than the other sports I’ve been involved in.” Emma agrees. “As soon as you put your skates on you become someone else. All your aggression has a channel to come out.” [Sounds like poetry to me!]

  Some of the best wordplay can be found in the names of the Roller Derby women. This is a shout-out to Venus Envy and Annie After-party. NYC misses you.
