(Played by Derby Dolls banked track rules: 1 minute jams, lead jammer is always the one in front, minor penalties = penalty box for one minute and one blocker down from the team, major penalties = penalty box for one minute, no jammer for the penalized team, 2 penalty points for penalized skater, 5 penalty points and the skater is ejected. Penalty assessment is regardless of whether the penalized skater is a jammer or blocker. Penalties are similar to WFTDA 2.0)

The last "Baby Doll Brawl" in December gave us the dramatic high flying"Johnny Crash" block caught on video Derby Dolls Boom!. PITA and Leia Mout (the dramatic players in the video), along with Mila Minute, Gori Spelling and Laguna Beyatch, emerged from that game to raise their respective veteran teams to a whole new level.

April 14, 2007 In a dramatic reversal of fortune, the Tough Cookies once again baked in their Siren defeating ingredients of a powerful defense and aggressive offense to ground the Fight Crew, who haven't lost a game since March 2005, bringing their season record to a leading 2-1.

It was a tight game from the start, and the Cookies announced their intent to take this game home with a 3-0 opening jam.

The Tough Cookies earned a few more merit badges while the Sirens had their case thrown out of court, as the Girls in Green took down the Women in Blue, 32-26.

Pounding the Sirens relentlessly for the first 6 jams, the Cookies tasered the Black and Blue with an immediate and commanding 10 point lead, the Sirens calling in a 2-12 score to the station house. The battle was a bloody one, with members from both teams in penalty box jail for most of the jams.

For the 2007 season opener, both the Fight Crew and Tough Cookies were still feeling the bite of injuries sustained in the LA Derby Dolls game against TXRD two weeks earlier. The Tough Cookies’ aggressive veteran jammer and defensive skater Eire Vengeance was sitting on the sidelines while recovering from her thrice broken leg, and Fight Crew current star jammer Jihad is still healing from the gash to her shin.

Due to other team absences, both teams were filled with interning Baby Dolls working their way toward earning their wings, merit badges or night sticks. Before training for the season even began, 2006 top scoring jammer Militia Etheridge departed the Derby Dolls and left the Fight Crew without over a third of their point winning power.
