GUY alert: flashing, are in the rink. On the new A&E show “Roller-girls,” women who have extra energy and thighs of steel compete in the fierce world of roller derby. They all have day jobs, of course. There’s a systems analyst, a special education teacher, a maternity room nurse and, of course, that one lost soul looking for direction. In addition to providing glimpses of skimpy outfits, “Rollergirls” will delve into the private lives of these daredevils on-the-go.
