I remember lacing up my white, leather skates on the slate steps of my parent's house and rolling down our driveway to the bumpy, gravel street. My whole body vibrated from the wheels rolling over the uneven pavement. I remember wishing that the town would decide to one day pave our street with smooth black tar. Nonetheless I skated on, body shaking. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The best days though were when my mother took me to the roller rink. She skated along side me in her 1940s wooden-wheeled quads. She was so good at it and I practiced everyday to try and measure up. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Fast forward to October of 2007, when I made my way over to United Skates and tried out for the Long Island Roller Rebels. I had no idea at the time, but life as I knew it was about to change! </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As it does for so many members from the start, derby consumed me! It was all I ever wanted to do. I slept, ate and drank derby pretty much on a daily basis. For me it served a great purpose. I was single at the time so it helped fill up my spare time that might otherwise have been spent alone. It also satisfied my insatiable need to exercise rigorously and the distraction of it all helped me through rough times. Best of all though, I met some of the most amazing people who will always be a part of my life. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In 2008, I created The Rebel Yell. Initially I started blogging to help promote the league and to help spread news about roller derby in general. The blog ended up serving another purpose. It became a place where I got to share my own stories as well, and boy did I love to talk! I'm so thankful to have had the opportunity to record and share my experiences with others.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After, five years of writing The Rebel Yell, I've decided that it's time to say goodbye. My current schedule doesn't leave me with much time to spare and as a result my involvement with the league at this point is minimal if at all. That's not to say that it won't some day become more so, but for now, it is. Without experiencing roller derby or being involved with the league, it's harder to bring you news or to write posts with much substance. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I am so thankful to everyone who has read even one of my posts! I hope that I was able to at the very least, keep you all informed about the Roller Rebels.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As a goodbye, I thought I would share my 25 Random Facts with you. I hope you enjoy reading them!</span><br />

<div class="yiv1300263749MsoNormal" id="yui_3_7_2_1_1368667911855_2362" style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1368667911855_2501">On May 11<sup>th</sup> The Long Island Roller Rebels (93) hosted The Rhode Island Riveters (91). Last year Long Island traveled up to Providence and proved to be the biggest upset of the weekend, by winning, 148-120. This season Long Island’s All Stars have had two losses and were looking for a win. The first jam did not fair well for the All Stars as ATTACKACARDIC was sent to the box for a cut track major, giving the Riveters a power play early on in the bout. For the next 3 consecutive jams the Riveters would be held scoreless. In jam 4 Rhode Island’s Hit and Run Paulene was able to take advantage of ATTACKACARDIC’s penalty and score 23 points for her team, taking the lead back to Rhode Island 34 to 17. Long Island’s jammers, Crashtastic Cate, Veloce Villain, Attacacardic and C-Roll chipped away at the score throughout the rest of the period. In the last jam of the first period, ATTACKACARDIC took the line gaining lead jammer as her blockers Veloce Villain, Angry Penguin, Berry Boom Boom and Amaretto Sourpuss were able to hold back Rhode Island keeping them scoreless as she would put up 25 points pushing Long Island further in the lead, ending the period 88 to 55 in favor of Long Island.</span></div>

<span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1368667911855_2504">In the second half of the bout, Long Island kept the momentum rolling as MVP Blocker Breakneck Brie would hold tight walls with teammates Amaretto Sourpuss, Berry Boom Boom and team Captain Angry Penguin. By the sixth jam of the half, Veloce Villain would take advantage of Buzz AllDread’s back block major and break a personal record with a 32 point jam!!! This pushed Long Island even further into the lead 129 to 67! Long Island kept a very strong lead until jam 16 when Buzz AllDread would score 15pts on a power jam. It looked like Rhode Island would start to rally, but the score was still in favor of Long Island 148 to 100. In the next two jams, LI jammers, Crashtastic Cate and Veloce Villain felt the heat and would push on with a combined 33 point total, distancing themselves in the lead 184 to 108. The last jam of the night C-Roll and Buzz AllDread took the jammer line. Buzz would gain lead jammer status and gain 9 points before getting a track cut major, leaving C Roll to put up 22 points for Long Island as her teammates cheered her on giving Long Island their first win of 2013!!</span></div>

It's been a while. Were you all at the last bout? If not, here's a recap for you:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

Revelyn Sin was the first jammer to take the line for the Bruisers gaining lead jammer status however with Ithaca’s Felonious Fox right behind her, she strategically called off the jam just after scoring 2 points. By the fourth jam, things looked grim for our Bruisers as Ithaca took the lead, 19 to 3. In jam five Bruiser team captain, Dropkick Dolly, played some sweet offense by helping jammer Ermahgerd! to obtain 30 pts in one jam! Ermahgerd! forced a lead change back to the Bruisers with a score of 39 to 26. In jam 8 Bad A$$ Nat took the jammer line for the Bruisers and gained 3 points while Ithaca’s Bee Bee Gun gained 4 points leaving the score tied at 42. Ithaca would then pull ahead with two big jams from Felonious Fox & Valerie Valkyrie leaving the score in Ithaca’s favor 74 to 47. The Bruisers struggled for the remainder of the half leaving the score 120 to 60 in favor of Ithaca.</span></span></span></span></span></div>

Jammers Ermahgerd!, Revelyn Sin & PhDD racked up back to back points for Long Island catching up with a score of 76 to 132. Unfortunately, in jam 30 the Bruisers failed to field a jammer giving Ithaca an opportunity to score 15 unanswered points. During jams 11,12 and 13 the Bruisers began to rally keeping Ithaca scoreless. Jammer Bad A$$ Nat had a rally of her own putting up two big jams, but still the Bruiser’s fell short.

<div class="yiv1861582194MsoNormal" id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363572248091_47031" style="background-color: white; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363572248091_47030">Saturday March 9<sup>th</sup> was the second bout of the season for the Long Island Roller Rebels, but the first sanctioned bout of 2013. This was an exciting match up between the LIRR All Stars (17E) and the Garden State Roller Girls Ironbound Maidens (27E). In the first jam GSR’s Renegade Ruby was able to obtain lead jammer, but was held back by great recycling and walls formed by veteran Rebel blockers, ShadowboxHer, Amaretto Sourpuss, Angry Penguin and Betty or Not. With a lightning fast ATTACKACARDIC hot on her trail, Ruby was forced to call off the jam early leaving her scoreless. In the second jam C-Roll was able to rack up the first 3 points for Long Island. In the following jam ATTACKACARDIC gained lead jammer and put up a whopping 13 points, her run was cut short when she was sent to the penalty box for a major track cut giving Garden State a power jam. Renegade Ruby was limited to only 5 points while ATTACK served her time in the box, leaving the score at 16 to 5 in favor of Long Island. AKA Meme then took the jammer line for GSR obtaining lead jammer and 13 points bringing this bout to only a 3point difference. <span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1363878546_0">Garden State</span> would then rally to put points on the board, until jam 8 when Renegade Ruby would receive a major track cut loosing lead jammer status and sending her to the box. LIRR All Star C-Roll was able to capatilize on the power play with a 25 point jam of her own bringing the hometown heroes back into the game and once again changing the lead back to Long Island 46 to 40. Only 2 jams later Renegade Ruby would acquire 25 points changing the lead back to Garden State. Even with a 19point power jam by Rebel rookie Thin Slice of Violence, Garden State would keep the lead for the remainder of the period, but not by much. At the end of the first period the score was 85 to 96 in favor of Garden State.</span></div>

<span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1363572248091_47039">At the beginning of the second half our Long Island All Stars got their second wind and we would see a repeat of the first jam from the first half. Even though Garden State Renegade Ruby obtained lead jammer, ATTACKACARDIC was hot on her heels forcing her to call the jam off leaving both teams scoreless. In the following jam AKA Meme lost lead jammer and was sent to the penalty box giving C-Roll the opportunity to score 19 points and once again changing the lead 104 to 100 in favor of Long Island! With the score still close and several lead changes, Long Island sent out a one-two punch when ATTACKACARDIC took the jammer line unopposed obtaining lead jammer and earning 25 points! This was followed by Crashtastic Cate donning the jammer star and putting up 14 points for Long Island pushing them further into the lead 153 to 126! It came down to the last jam to see who would win this battle with the score close at 171 to 166 in favor of Long Island. ATTACKACARDIC would join Lixxie Stixx on the jammer line, it looked good for Long Island when ATTACKACARDIC gained lead jammer and grabbed 4 points, unfortunately ATTACK would receive a major track cut leaving Lixxie Stixx unopposed to gain 12 points for her team changing the lead to Garden State Rollergirls. With no time outs left for Long Island, GSR would go on to win the bout with a final score of 175 Long Island 175 to <b>178</b> <b>Garden State Rollergirls.</b></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While our skaters are still recovering from a game well played on Saturday night, I'm still reminiscing about how much fun it was! If you were there, then you know that the bout between the LIRR All Stars and GSR was a close one! Both teams played hard all night, but in the end it was GSR who took the lead. Final score GSR 178, All Stars 175.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div>
<br /></div>
<div>
With plenty of PBR, a photo booth and entertainment by DJ Joe Jack, the night was a fun-filled one! Announcing was loud and clear with CAP LOCKS and Captain Morgan on the mics and raffle prize giveaways at half time were abundant. On a personal note, I was so happy to provide a happy fan with a giveaway of my own and for those of you who supported me at my vendor table, thank you!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As always, thanks go out to all of our volunteers, refs and NSOs. But we would especially like to thank our fans because without you, we wouldn't be here! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
Cheers to a great night! Looking forward to our next home bout on April 13th when the <span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">Rock-A-Betty Bruiser's take on Ithaca Bluestockings.</span><br />

I know I can't wait!! This Saturday, March 9th, the Long Island Roller Rebel All Stars will proudly host a home bout versus the Garden State Roller Girls
Ironbound Maidens at Skate Safe America! The All Stars are especially excited for this bout, since the two teams have not faced
each other in over four years in WFTDA sanctioned play. The Maidens took home the win in the past, so the Rebel All Stars
are looking for payback!</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">While you're there, you can grab yourself a drink. We will be serving up Pabst Blue Ribbon beer and White Zinfandel. Also be sure to check out all of our vendors. I'll have a table set up with a FREE raffle to win some loot! So come by, say hello and enter to win!</span><br />

<span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1361463171982_2414" style="color: black; font-family: Verdana;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">On February 9<sup>th</sup>
Long Island Roller Rebels dug out of the snow left over from Nemo to
kick off the first bout of the 2013 season with The Return of the Home
Teams! Both teams had some old and some new faces on their rosters.
Starting with The Wicked Wheelers roster: Betty or Not, Captain Morgan,
Crashtastic Cate, Dropkick Dolly, Ermahgerd!, Femme&M, Hardcory,
Nautical Vile, PhDoubleD & Veloce Villain lead by Captains Amaretto
Soupuss & TNTeeny. The Ladies of Laceration’s line up Account
DeeRacula, ArcHER Back, ATTACKACARDIC, Bad A$$ Nat, Point N Shoot,
Revelyn Sin, ShadowboxHER, Thin Slice of Violence & Wushu Sugar lead
by Captains Breakneck Brie & Flossy SmackIntyre. Both teams have
not met on the track since 2010 when The Ladies upset The Wheelers to
advance to the 2010 championships. The Wheelers wanted to reestablish
their name on the track, however the Ladies were the first to put points
on the board with 4 points by ATTACKACARDIC! The Ladies would keep the
lead until jam 11. Veloce Villain would take the jammer line unopposed
and put up a 19 point jam placing the Wheelers in the lead by one point
36 to 35. By jam 15, Thin Slice of Violence would have an 11 point power
jam to keep the Ladies in the game 49 to 54 in favor of the Wheelers.
The following jam Veloce Villain would help give her team a comfortable
lead with an amazing 25 point jam! The Wheelers had great defensive
walls effectively shutting out the Ladies’ jammers lead by captains
TNTeeny & Amaretto Sourpuss. By the end of the first half it did not
look good for The Ladies of Laceration with a score 92 to 54 in favor
of the Wheelers.</span><span id="yui_3_7_2_1_1361463171982_2413"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> </span></span></span></div>

the beginning of the second period the Ladies regrouped and came out
with strong walls by their blockers as ATTACKACARDIC would put up a 19
point power jam.<span> </span>In jam 12,
rookie jammer Revelyn Sin, had an 18 point power jam with a lead change
112 to 105 in favor of the Ladies. The game returned into a nail bitter
with the score so close it was hard to predict a winner. However by jam
21 The Wheelers took a loss with power blocker Amaretto Sourpuss taking
her 7<sup>th</sup> trip to the penalty box resulting in her being
expelled from the game. This upset the Wheeler’s manager Jefferee
causing him to follow Sourpuss to the locker room leaving the Wheelers
with one manager Glittersarus Rex. The Wheelers kept strong putting up a
fight with the score still close 139 to 113 Ladies. It came down to the
final jam with Veloce Villain & Attackacardic taking the jammer
line. ATTACK was able to gain lead jammer status and ran the period
clock out while both jammers racking up an even 12 points for each team
leaving the final score 151 to 125, Ladies Win!</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">This talented skater has been with the Roller Rebels since April of 2009. She has skated with the All Stars for 5 seasons and has been a Wicked Wheeler for 3 seasons. Not afraid to go all out, she is the first in our league to have had a full on marriage ceremony with her derby wife. She bounced back quickly from a serious derby sustained injury and has the most unique and contagious laugh you'll ever hear!</span><br />

It's the first bout of the season featuring two of our home teams, The Wicked Wheelers and The Ladies of Laceration. By the title of this post I guess it's easy to see who I'm cheering for. Sorry Wheelers, as a former Lady of Laceration, I just have to root for the white and red! Deep down though, I really do wish you all good luck! Hey readers, who are you rooting for?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Over the past few years, there has a been a rise in the amount and kinds of food trucks in New York City. From cupcake trucks, to gourmet grilled cheese trucks, the city has got it all. So it was no surprise to me when I found out about The Skate Truck NYC. The Skate Truck, a mobile roller skating facility, provides skate rentals and for those interested, skate lessons. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This summer, the truck will be rolling around to various New York City parks and in addition to skate rentals, they also offer customized social events such as private parties and fundraisers. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So when you're finished resting your belly from the taco you devoured from the gourmet Mexican truck, visit The Skate Truck and take some quads for a spin!</span></div>
