I watch the above clip before every big game.....

and today I can say, "Who am I? I am a Champion!!!" but for reals!



(This is me minutes after winning the CWRDA East Coast Canada Championship tournament. We won the whole fucking thing!!! See the sweat and tears? They were deserved hahah)

So let me take you through it.

We got to Ottawa on the Friday night. The hotel I booked was the nicest one we ever stayed at for derby, and split three ways for two nights it was only 45 bucks each! It was downtown, right across from City Hall, had a kitchen , living room and separate bedroom!

So we got in , washed up a bit then headed out to explore a bit and grab supper. Our first game wasn;t until the next day at 1, and was gonna be an easy one hahahah so we found this sweet patio that was packed with people and ordered a shit tonne of friend yummies and drank lots of beer.....

We also found weird road side attractions on the way so even before supper we were laughing all day and high as fuck on good weed hahahah








Woke up early and hung oiver the next day to go register for the tourney. It was 30 minutes and in the country kinda. We had to sit there until we played at 1.

The game at one was against Guelph, a new league. We won 238-4 A hallow win really but fun girls none the less...


We sat around the venue the rest of the day, watching 5 full length games while getting stoned, soaking up sun in between and shooting the shit with girls from other leagues n such...

Fun Times, really (but I did forget that I actually wanted to go to tour Ottawa , seeing as this is my 3rd time there and all I see is an arena, a hotel room and maybe a bar or two ....boo)

best picture ever




We went to The Works for a huge burger supper then back to our rooms to rest up and go to bed early for the 2 games we had to play Sunday!

Our first game Sunday was against Hamilton. We won that one 168-12? hahahah so this meant that we had to play for number one or two against Rideau Valley at 5 PM to determine the winner.

We were scared kinda, they are our arch rivals. We have played them twice before. The first time we won by 3 points and learned what they were all about . Which essentially is KILLING. They are HUGE , most large man-ish lesbians hahahah and are all about brawn, throwing HUGE hits that break bones. They also get mad and sometimes play dirty. The second time we played them they broke my girl's collarbone so bad she needed surgery, and then were so dirty that one of our girls jumped them and they threatened to sue us hahahahah

So final game, for the Championship...is upon us, we are tired, nervous and the underdogs, smaller in size and numbers and with some new girls with us that have only played a few times but the only thing we had on our side was strategy! Strategy that we practiced for a whole month on how to slow the pack down and get power jams and stay the fuck outta their way...

The 3rd jam in we were ahead by 10 points, then a huge hit knocked our Captian (and guru that teaches us EVERYTHING) down and broke her ankle. It was devastating. she screamed in pain as they took her off the track in a chair and we stopped the game to decide if we wanted to forfeit or not. They felt so bad they offered to forfeit too and we would have won by default. Our President went to the hosptial with Anay Face so we were down two now....

We decided to play on, it was brutal, huge hits, worried faces but we put the plan into action, slowing the pack, trapping mad girls and keeping them, making them cut the track over and over so they were in the box the whole time...and it WORKED!!!

We won by 70 points!!!


getting our gold medals


We cried like we won Miss America hahahahah.

it was epic because we won against the bullies , we won for Steph that broke herself and had to leave, we used her plays and won the first tourney EVER!!! against a really hard team that we had history with, it was so epic they should make a movie about it hahahah

We left after to bring the trophy to our Captain, they plastered her up to wait for surgery on wednesday and sent her home



We got in the car , Champions, and exhausted!!




We drove all night home, arriving at 5 AM and I had to be up with the kids at 7 hahahahah

I wore my medal to serve them breakfast, they thought that was neat....

We are going out to celebrate tonight a few of us from the game seeing as we never got to go to an afterparty or anything....

and I get to get on a bus and go up to Ottawa AGAIN this weekend, to play a double header against their A team and the Lunch Ladies are gonna play their B Team...God help us hahahah

Since then, I have watched the videos (the are on www.canuckderbytv.com) and people really freaked out by the underdogs playing such a smart game, but I am SURE Ottawa watched them this week to, and are onto our plays , with Steph in hospital still, we will have to think of something and quick!!!!

Go FCDG!!!
