Hoping everyone gets back to rollering fast and derbying safely in 2022.

Excited to see Angel City take on Gotham tonight! Except, uhh... did I miss a few rule changes over the pandemic?

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush Who gives a shit? Derby will win out in the end.

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush If you're going to play that card then WFTDA's baf rules begat USARS derby begat FIRS derby. Who started this mess?

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush Yeah. Also look at how empty FIRS' skateboarding website is. Not a deterrent to IOC/Olympic credibility I guess.

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush Yeah. Showing me FIRS' empty website despite it having no bearing on the political machinations makes TOTAL sense.

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush It's an issue unrelated to this discussion. The IOC doesn't have "robust website" on its checklist, I guess. …

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush … Regardless, FIRS's website directly relates to its current involvement in organizing comps. No shit, sherlock.

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush lol you think I really give a shit if FIRS succeeds or fails

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush Oh no, more countries are involved with roller derby! What a terrible, terrible fate for the game. #sadday

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush We'll see if the people running FIRS derby do.

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush Wow, you know you're right. You've got me figured out! That is EXACTLY what I would do. Thanks for mansplaining it!

@CaptLouElBammo Adam Roush Yeeeeeeeah. I think we're done here. Have a good day, gentlemen!

WFTDA, MRDA & JRDA are proud to announce a partnership on The Rules - along w/ updated release dates: wftda.com/wftda-mrda-jrd…

Lots happening in this rules partnership announcement: JRDA will have official input into rules. JFTDA is nixed. Still mods for Jr play. …

… WFTDA/MRDA eds will become "adult" rules. Updated timeline for rules docs releases/updates. Junior/JRDA rules out on June 15. Whew.

What this rules news isn't changing: Elite Jrs can't play w/adults til 18yo. JRDA will continue to work w/USARS,RDCL to offer opportunities.

It was always for the best that JFTDA never got off the ground. Unifying by dividing was bad idea from the start. Glad WFTDA came around.

Us too. x.com/WFTDA/status/8…

@CaptLouElBammo Yeah, I've seen and noticed it too. Still no change in plans for derby to be happening there AFAIK, even if it's an exhib gm or something.
