Roller Derby: Detroit at Chicago

If you have any familiarity with the citizenry of Little Detroit, you know that we are totally, totally roller derby type of people.

Imagine our enthusiasm and confusion when the Motor City Disassembly Line showed up to bout with the Chicago Outfit Syndicate. Do we vote for the Chicago squad for whom we have cheered for several seasons, or do we get behind Detroit for Detroit's sake?

It was a really hard decision. In the end, we just chained back some PBRs and shouted encouragement to every single rugged woman whipping around the track.

Final score: Chicago 155, Detroit 40. (It was kind of a beating, but the MCDL is actually the B team from the D, while the Syndicate is that league's top-level squad.)
