Hi! I see you talk about your current reads and I wondered if you'd be willing to recs some favs? Sports romances maybe?

⭐️ = my special faves

📚 = ones i haven’t read but have heard good things

hockey

⭐️ iced out - college hockey romance, two players who hated each other growing up end up at the same college and whoops they won after hooking up at a party, guess they have to keep up the superstition so they keep winning

power plays & straight a’s (cu #1) - college hockey romance, brother’s best friend where the hockey player is trying to earn an nhl contract at the end of the season while captaining the team to a championship, while his twin brother asks him to look out for his awkward best friend who just moved to his college for grad school

face offs & cheap shots (cu #2) - college hockey romance, two teammates who have never seen eye to eye are up against each other for the captaincy, they do a bunch of stupid competitions and become closer

⭐️ goal lines & first times (cu #3) - college hockey romance, with hidden identities, the hockey player is coming to terms with his sexuality using a dating app, and the other guy is the twin brother from the first book who doesn’t like hockey, sick of being compared to his hockey player twin with ace/demi rep

⭐️ line mates & study dates (cu #4) - college hockey romance, where the hockey player is struggling to help his older brother raise their younger siblings after their parents die, and therefore, he needs tutoring to keep his grades up and conveniently the coach’s son is very smart and is also the equipment manager for the team, and they shouldn’t do anything for a variety of reasons, but a reward system for good grades seems to work

puck drills & quick thrills (cu #5) - college hockey adjacent romance, the hockey player hating professor meets the assistant hockey coach who is raising his younger siblings (see previous book) after giving up his nhl contract, they fake date for a high school reunion, obviously they must fall in love

📚 consider me (playing for keeps #1) - pro hockey romance (vancouver), he’s a playboy, she doesn’t want to get hurt

📚 play with me (playing for keeps #2) - pro hockey romance (vancouver), best friend (and captain’s) little sister who really likes sex toys (?)

powerless (chesnut springs #3) - pro hockey romance (vancouver), childhood infatuation on her part turned pining on both their parts like 18 years later, she’s about to marry someone else but that falls apart so he rescues her and then his bff goes missing overseas and now he needs the rescuing. also, he’d a goalie!

⭐️ isn’t it bromantic (bromance book club #3) - pro hockey (nashville) childhood besties to marriage of convenience, he wants to use what he learns from romance novels to convince her to give their relationship a real shot, she’s running from the past

📚 mile high (windy city #1) - pro hockey (chicago), he’s the resident pest on the team, she’s the flight attendant on the team plane with both a personal and professional rule against hooking up with athletes and they do not get along

⭐️ season’s change (trade season #1) - pro hockey (dc), veteran hockey player wants to start fresh on his new team and gets a rookie roommate who is dedicated to his craft, and they continue to get closer even though neither of them can afford a distraction

⭐️ contract season (trade season #2) - pro hockey (nashville), the hockey player just broke up with his boyfriend because he doesn’t want to come out, the country artist performer at a wedding he attends catches his eye and they sleep together before he ghosts him, unfortunately they get outed, and must fake a relationship to deal with the press

too much man (firebirds #1) - pro hockey adjacent, he’s just retired and is looking to leave town soon, while she owns a queer friendly coffee shop and has no time for a personal life, friends with benefits is obviously the only solution

📚 hat trick hearts (thunderclap #1) - pro hockey (tampa bay), an mmfm grouping, they all had a history together in college but are reunited now on tampa bay’s team, she’s digging for inspiration for her newest romance novel and wondering how they could all fit back together

📚 game changer series

📚 puckboys series

baseball

📚 don’t you dare - college baseball romance, after they’re dared to kiss at a party these besties can’t stop crossing lines they never thought they would cross

bromance book club (bromance book club #1) - pro baseball (nashville) their marriage is in trouble, and it turns out she’s been faking it in bed for years, and when she asks for a divorce he turns to an unlikely source for help: a book club of men use romance novels to help their relationships.

basketball

📚 the right move (windy city #2) - pro basketball (chicago), best friend’s sister turned roommates turned fake dating with a side of a horrible ex bf and a petty team gm

football

fair catch (red zone rivals #1) - brother’s best friend turned roommates at school, where they’re both on the football team, he’s a kick returner and she’s the kicker, there’s a lot of trouble in their past but the close proximity is blurring all the lines

📚 the rest of the red zone rivals

📚 playbooks series

#asks #anonymous #anyway these are what i could think of off the top of my head #im sure there’s more #also if anyone wants nonsports romances i’ve got so many recs

Man sighthound people are REALLY MAD that Kishu Ken were moved to hound group instead of working or nonsporting, despite Kishu having been used exclusively for hunting since before they were even called Kishu Ken.

me trying to explain penguins hockey to my nonsports mutuals: ok so you know the myth of sisyphus right? haha yeah we love our myths and doomed cycles here... ok but instead of sisyphus imagine a hockey team held together by banana bread and love. and the boulder is every single game they have ever played. you get it now <3

#pens lb #hockey mutuals and nonhockey mutuals we are ALL really in it #hockey's because we are hand in hand in choosing to spend our evenings watching this #nonhockey because i am annoying and you have to suffer through this without even watching the game

In 1874 there were three breeds of spaniel; a quarter of a century later, there were ten. The overall number of terriers, in both the sporting and nonsporting divisions, rose from eleven to fifteen, including the newly accepted Airedale, Clydesdale, and Yorkshire breeds. The designation of all these terriers in one sense recognized the variations of the pre-breed era, but there was a crucial difference: then, the variants formed a continuous series; in the post-breed era, the variants were separated and segmented.

In one sense, all breeds were new, owing to the novelty of the concept and its material productions. Considerable rhetorical effort was required to create breed standards, and it took a lot of work to produce conforming, uniform, and discrete breed populations. Some breeds were regarded as genuinely new and without history; these were often called “manufactures.” Novelty was sometimes an advantage. Vero Shaw argued that many established breeds had “been the subject of acrimonious and narrow-minded disputes and petty quarrels,” whereas new breeds could be judged simply on their merits.

— Michael Worboys, Julie-Marie Strange & Neil Pemberton, The Invention of the Modern Dog: Breed and Blood in Victorian Britain (2018)

#dog books #dog history #an illustration of the divergence from type to breed #in the type era all the different dogs existed #but they existed on a spectrum and were not limited in their breeding by standards or notions of purity #after the breed era everything became discrete to the detriment of dogs

Ive been saying forever people need to eventually stop relying on supermarkets for all their meat and get into nonsport hunting, buying from local butchers, and/or eating “less common” meat like rabbit or duck or gator but americans in particular have an aversion to anything thats not beef pork or chicken

#I am not 100% educated by any means but its my onion that the reliance on factory farming is unhealthy #We need to go local again and if that means eating sustainably & ethically farmed pigeon so be it #emf

Tucker’s Embark results! Full results: http://embk.me/tucker4829?utm_campaign=cns_ref_dog_pub_profile&utm_medium=other&utm_source=embark

The shelter listed him as a Border Collie mix (lol) and I was pretty sure he was a Golden Retriever/Border Collie/etc. mix so pretty surprised to find that he has neither. The Dachshund and Boston Terrier are pretty hilarious to me (he’s 48 pounds! and definitely not short!) but all the rest make sense/aren’t particularly surprising. His supermutt was Collie, Chow Chow, and Rottweiler. A little bit of everything! Sporting, herding (ish), bully/terrier, hounds, nonsporting, and working!

#embark results #wanted a herdy dog and instead i got.... all of the above. every kind of dog

nonsportive but curious

Daily writing promptWhat Olympic sports do you enjoy watching the most?View all responses The idea of what SPORT do I watch rather than do I watch the Olympics struck my funny bone. I have tuned in pretty regularly to the idea of the Olympics from the 60’s onwards— whether I always had access to TV coverage or not. Truthfully, I am most taken with luge & bobsled, which of course are winter…
