STEPH DEROSA: DERBY DIARIES >>>

They’re out for blood. They’re out for revenge. They’re also out of their minds. The Trampires have what it takes to cut you both mentally and physically. One look at these bloody broads and you’ll be heading for the hills. Don’t doubt that they have just enough crazy in them to hurt any one of their opponents.

Their colors are black like your soul and red like your blood â€" scary huh?

Donning fangs, capes and fake bloody makeup, these roller queens are a sight to behold. Last season they took out the Maurading Molly’s in “sudden death” overtime, kicked some Hellbound Homewrecker and Femme Fianna ass, and claimed the Dockyard Derby Dames Championship for the 2007 season. That’s right, they were undefeated, and they pretty much kick ass.

Vorpal Bunny and Paula Bunion are the Trampires’ fearless leaders, and quite possibly the best jammers on the league. Leave it to these two to create a mad team of rollerchicks who want to do nothing but hurt a skater.

Trampires to be scared of

• My Tai Smashya #187 â€" This bitch can BLOCK. I dare a girl to try and pass her.
• Judy Asa Punk #6:58 â€" Another blocker who let’s nothing stand in the way of her jammer getting through the pack.
• Mo Ratorium â€" All-around badass. She’s coming back from a knee injury, and she can do it all: jammer, blocker, and pancake maker.

Message from the Trampires to the other three Dockyard teams: We were out for blood last season, now we’re back and hungry for more.

The countdown is here to witness the entire Dockyard Derby Dame league in action.  On Feb. 24, 7 p.m., it's Good vs. Evil battling it out at the Skate 'N' Station.  I'll be there, and I need your help.  You can either show up to watch the girls skate and buy me a beer, OR you can show up to volunteer for the league and buy me a beer.  You're choice.
