Team Unicorn all the way!

Well I have been very busy/lazy and haven't updated this for a while, so have a little bit to catch up on.

Last weekend was fantastic. I went to the Sydney Roller Derby - Pulp Friction - with my closest friends. The team I had chosen to make 'my team' - the Beauty School Knockouts - weren't playing in the main bout so I decided to support Team Unicorn - the Horny Rollers, predominantly as their Jammer, Winnie Bruise, is just phenominal.
So my bestie and I made rainbow tutu style skirts (Team Unicorn colours are rainbow) so we could show our support for the unicorns. I was still only half heartedly in support of the Unicorns, like I said, I liek their jammer but didnt really know enough about them otherwise to mind if they won or lost....well, that's how I felt BEFORE the bout started anyway!
As the teams took to the track with their introductory performances I found myself becoming more excited for team unicorn - who wouldnt love a performance that starts with 'Somewhere over the rainbow' and ends with 'born this way' by lady Gaga? However the real excitement began with the commencement of the first jam. With Winnie Bruise in as Jammer she flew past the pack in her typical fashion and proceeded to clock up the first points for the Unicorns.
At this point I was still cheering more for Winniw than for the Unicorns as a whole, but as time progressed and I watched the other girls play I began to feel an affinity with the rest of the players - Miss Sin Doll was another great jammer and Captain Ratz and the Mighty Toosh were great blockers!
With each passing moment I felt myself becoming more excited when the Unicorns would score (or prevent the D'Viants from scoring) and more and more tense if the Unicorns weren't lead jammers or if the D'Viants scored.
by the end of the game i found myself doing something i have never done with any sporting match - I REALLY cared about who won! I was cheering - SCREAMING for the Unicorns. I was on the edge of my seat, I was tense, i was nervous, I was completely immersed in the game!
With 3 minutes left on the clock the D'Viants had come from behind to take a 28 point lead - it didn't seem that the Unicorns would be able to come back from that. I was sitting on the edge of my seat, cheerign with all my might as Miss Sin Doll proved me wrong and clocked up a 29 point jam to bring the unicorns ahead by 1 point with 20 secondes left on the clock! A final Jam with Winnie Bruise in as lead jammer sealed the deal, ensuring a victory for the Unicorns - who thus retained their undefeated status.
the next bout on 6th August will determin who will face the unicorns in the final - personally I dont mind who it is. After the way I felt last Saturday night I know my blood runs rainbow - Team Unicorn through and through!
