[On March 3rd,
1875, the first organized ice hockey game was played. So this week for
the sport’s 150th anniversary I’ve AmericanStudied a handful of
hockey histories, leading up to this weekend post on some SportsStudiers we can
all learn from!]
Just over
two years ago (but also like five minutes ago, because time is an accordion
here in the 2020s), I dedicated my Super
Bowl series weekend post to highlighting a number of excellent
SportsStudiers. All those folks are still well worth reading and supporting, so
I mainly wanted to reiterate those recommendations at the end of this sports
histories series.
But now
that I’ve gotten more fully onto the Bluesky
(follow me at that profile if you’re over there and I’ll return the favor!), I
also wanted to share a couple Starters Packs (which is how Bluesky allows us to
create lists of folks for easy follows) that feature many more SportsStudiers:
Left-leaning sports commentators
Baseball podcasts and podcasters
Check them
out and keep the SportsStudying going!
Next
series starts Monday,
Ben
PS. What
do you think? SportsStudiers you’d share?
