Help us rename the Bruisers column

By Amy Elliott - Mar 12th, 2009 04:40 pm

Last month, VITAL Source and ThirdCoast Digest were threatened with a cease and desist order by another derby league in the region, alleging that the title of our popular derby column Talk Derby to Me, by Tea Krulos (with a fabulous vodcast of the same name by Noah Therrien), was protected under U.S. Trademark.

It’s a dark day for Milwaukee derby lovers, but have no fear: we will continue to publish the bout recaps, skater interviews and season recaps you’ve come to love and post great footage, live from the track, after every game.

Today, we ask you today to help us select the new title of TD2M: 2.0. If you don’t like any of these, we’re savvy; just shoot us an email and let us know if you’ve got a better idea. We’ll add it to the poll.

Voting closes on April 10 and the new title will be unveiled at the April 18 Bruisers bout at the Franklin County Sports Complex. You can buy your tickets now at brewcitybruisers.com!

Thanks for your help!
