the christmas collection 2023!

i hope everyone enjoyed the cozy collection this year! i had a lot of fun coming up with ideas and writing the fics out, as well as participating in kinktober for a few days. it was also nice to write for some underrated drivers that i adore, including those who are in indycar.

i plan to bring all of that energy right over to my new winter collection, with stories based in holiday cheer going from november and right up until new years.

PROPER FICS

santa stole my girlfriend // callum ilott

his childhood best friend is back home for the holidays. they've always been close, and so many people have assumed they were a couple. but they're not. they were only ever just friends. so why does callum hate her new boyfriend so much?

sleigh ride // lance stroll

lance doesn't celebrate christmas, it's just not his thing. also, he's jewish, so there's that. but his girlfriend loves christmas, and he wants to find a way to make it special. (read: proposal)

the great christmas light fight - george russell

there's something about the male ego. y/n russell definitely did not expect her happy newlywed christmas to turn into a christmas light war between her husband and their neighbour. turns out, the neighbour's wife isn't too happy about this arrangement either. (loosely inspired by matthew broderick and danny devito's 'deck the halls')

silent night - alex albon

alex has a fun festive surprise in store for the whole family. that is, if he doesn’t wake the kids in the process. he’s a man on a mission: cookies to eat, milk to drink, stockings to stuff and snowy footprints to leave on the family room floor.

vermont // daniel ricciardo

You hate heights, but your friend convinced you to go skiing for the first time and now the ski lift is broken and you’re kind of freaking out, so it’s my job to comfort you

god knows i’ve tried // yuki tsunoda

"and if i get sick because i sacrificed my jacket for you, i'd hope you take care of me." (lawson!reader, jacket-sharing and mutual pining!, reader writes cozy mystery novels)

naughty list - oscar piastri

. “Let’s be naughty together and save Santa the trip.”

INSTAGRAM AUS

castle on the hill // lando norris

it’s beginning to look a lot like christmas // oscar piastri

merry and bride // charles leclerc

my sloppy new years kiss // liam lawson (piastri!reader!)

For fic asks: 9, 16, 19, and 24 please? :)

9. longest wip of the year

Hmm. I think it would be the second one in my Launt Rush soundtrack series. I started it months and months ago and it got to about 1.5k and then I just kinda lost the rhythm of it. I might start it from scratch and see how I go.

16. fic(s) you completed this year

Oh man. There’s more than I thought so bear with me!

A Fleur for the Romantic - my Valentine’s Francois/Jackie ficLoose Lips, Sunken Ships - my one and so far only Uncharted ficOne Ring to Fool Them All - an angsty Mark/Fernando fic for the 1000 Words challengeA Smile Takes Teamwork - a Will/Simon IndyCar ficletDo It For the Instagram - a Simon/Mikhail ficletUlterior Motifs - a miserable Climbing Class Until Dawn fic #joshwashingtondeservedbetterROC & Troll - a dumb crossover fic revolving around ROC MiamiA Matter of Chemistry - a throwaway Rolipe that I completely don’t remember writingOne Bar Reception - another Will/Simon ficPebble Without a Cause - a Launt Family AU fic for the 1000 word challenge (and no, I will never let this AU go)Boys Will Be Boys (So Says the Patriarchy) - an angsty Seb-centric Simi ficCouch & Breakfast - a Formula 3 era Launt fic1976 - first in the Rush soundtrack series of Launt ficsSTOLEN: One Kiss - Reward Offered for Return - a saccharine teen Simi ficA Time for Self-Deflection - a Baku fallout Simi ficLet Me Share Your Sweetest Memories - a Kimi-centric Simi ficSecond Place Qualifier - a depressing unrequited Jacky/Francois fic (are there any other kinds?)Sleep Is For the Weak (At the Knees) - another saccharine teen Simi ficLift My Spirits - a bizarre Valtteri & Dan stuck in a lift ficThe Riviera Touch - some rom-com shit from Rolipe and the summer challengeSix To Go - more consoling Simi this time post-SingaporeFire, Fire, Heart’s Desire - more dumb Simi fic (wow, I wrote more Simi this year than I realised!)One Last Time - a fic where I project onto Kimi how much I will miss Felipe

SO MANY PUNS THIS YEAR, GOOD LORD. I was more productive than I thought.

19. any new fics to start next year

Not off the top of my head. The ones that are running through my mind are ones that I’d already vaguely started or at least planned out in my head. I want to get back on track with the Rush ones so that’s a bulk selection. I’d also like to write some more Uncharted stuff. I’d also like to finally get down some of my Drumfred emotions in fic form but I’m still not sure I’m cut out for it.

24. favorite fic you read this year

Oh man. I’ll admit to not reading a huge amount of fic this year. It’s probably got to be Earthly Delights by @ohsososophisticated for my Rolipe starved soul. Sequels to fics you love are always a blessing.

#thank you!#fics #theianitor

15 + 5 + 5 To Watch : Week of 11419

1. As the Australian Open gets underway Down Under, Serena Williams will star in a year-long marketing campaign for the Bumble social networking app. The tie-up will kick off with a message of women’s empowerment during the February 3 Super Bowl, Williams told Reuters. Bumble began in 2014 as a female-driven dating platform for women to start discussions with potential male partners. The company is aiming to promote newer functions, Bumble BFF and Bumble Bizz, which also help women find friends and build business networks. In the campaign, “The Ball is in Her Court,” Williams will urge women to make the first move in all aspects of their lives. Serena helped create the Bumble campaign, which was developed and produced entirely by women, and will serve as global adviser to the company. The app now has more than 47 million users worldwide and competes with services such as Tinder and a new Facebook dating option. Williams is competing for a record-tying 24th Grand Slam singles title at the Australian Open this month. Her broad endorsement portfolio made her 2018’s highest-paid female athlete, according to Forbes, and she remains one of the world’s most sought-after celebrity athletes.

2. As the NFL’s Conference Championships loom, CBS President and Chief Advertising Revenue Officer Jo Ann Ross said the network has sold more than 90% of its ad slots for Super Bowl LIII. According to Cynopsis Sports, that pace is ahead of the last two years and on par with Super Bowl 50, which CBS also broadcast. CBS Executive Vice President of Sports Sales and Marketing John Bogusz said the entire third quarter is sold out, with remaining slots currently scattered around the other quarters. Ross and Bogusz each said some of the new advertisers and categories will surprise, but they were not at liberty to disclose them because of a high number of non-disclosure agreements signed with the brands. A source said a 30-second spot is selling for as high as $5.25 million. As the NFL’s divisional championship games have seen attendance over 76,000 fans and ratings well up from last year, CBS should expect to comfortably sell out the rest of its inventory before the big game in Atlanta.

3. Ahead of this weekend’s big matchups, the NFL and Intuit Inc announced that as part of their multi-year official sponsor partnership, Intuit TurboTax Live will serve as the first-ever presenting sponsor of both the AFC and NFC Championship Games. As a part of the sponsorship, TurboTax Live branding will be featured during the 2019 AFC and NFC Championship Games as well as within ancillary programming and content across league broadcast and digital media platforms. "We're proud to have Intuit as the NFL's first-ever presenting sponsor for both AFC and NFC Championship games," said Renie Anderson, NFL Senior Vice President, NFL Partnerships, Sponsorship and Consumer Products. "Intuit has a longstanding reputation as a leader in the financial and accounting software industry that NFL fans recognize and trust this time of year." Beyond the presenting sponsorship of both 2019 AFC and NFC Championship games, Intuit also becomes the NFL's official sponsor for financial and accounting software, as well as tax preparation services.

4. The Pepsi Super Bowl LIII halftime show on CBS has been booked, and Maroon Five is in the golden spotlight. The most-watched musical event of the year officially has its headliner and special guests. Following in the footsteps of broad-appeal acts such as Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga, Coldplay, Katy Perry, Bruno Mars, Beyonce, Madonna, and the like, Maroon 5, the three-time Grammy winning band, will be this year's headliner. The band will be joined by Travis Scott, a Grammy nominated rapper, and Big Boi, who is from Atlanta, which will be hosting the proceedings February 3 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Atlanta has long been a rap incubator, and you can expect many other high-profile local rap legends to play at the dozens of private events held annually around the Super Bowl.

5. The NBA has announced that the Los Angeles Lakers and Brooklyn Nets will star in this year’s edition of its China Games. The two franchises will face off in a pre-season double-header on October 10 in Shanghai and October 12 in Shenzhen. The NBA will run a variety of fan activities alongside the games, as well as a series of community outreach activities in the two cities hosting them. The Lakers last traveled to China in 2013 – the height of Kobe Bryant’s reach – while the Nets previously played games in China in 2010 and 2014. Said NBA China chief executive Derek Chang, “These games are the pillars of our efforts to bring authentic NBA action to our Chinese fans.” The 16-time NBA champion Lakers have not made the playoffs since 2013 but are still likely to rope in a big Chinese crowd after signing LeBron James ahead of the 2018-2019 season. The Nets have ties to China through minority owner Joseph Tsai, executive vice chairman of Chinese ecommerce giant Alibaba, who purchased a 49% stake in the franchise last year. The NBA has staged 26 matches in China since 2004; this year will mark the 13th edition of its China Games.

6. The Los Angeles Clippers won the NBA’s first Team Innovation Award at the league's sales and marketing meetings in Miami. The team was recognized for the launch of Clippers CourtVision, a customizable digital experience available to FS Prime Ticket subscribers. The Golden State Warriors collected a league-high five awards at the meeting, including recognition for selling 10,000-plus season tickets, having a 90% season-ticket renewal rate, and three sponsorship awards. The Celtics, Cavaliers, Rockets, Heat, and Raptors each won four awards. The Hawks received the NBA Team Diversity and Inclusion Leadership Award, while the Kings earned the NBA Team Diversity and Inclusion Innovation Award. Overall, the NBA is widely considered the most innovative of America’s pro sports leagues, from both a team and individual athlete perspective.

7. The NFL believes “the timing is perfect” for a London-based franchise to launch within the next three years. This is the sentiment of Mark Waller, who will leave his role as the NFL’s Executive Vice President of International after nearly 13 years with the NFL. London has hosted the majority of the NFL's overseas games, and the league has been open about its intention to expand its global footprint. Waller, an advocate of having a London NFL team, said that 2021 was a "realistic" timeframe for a London-based team to be established. He said, "I think the marketplace is ready in the U.K. to host a franchise. The fan base is big enough, we have partnerships in media and sponsorships that are viable. We have stadiums that can host us, we have government support. I believe that 2021, that sort of timeframe, is a realistic timeframe for an owner to be ready." Waller also pointed out that 2021 is around the time of the renewal of the NFL's Collective Bargaining Agreement. A new franchise would need to be rubber-stamped by the CBA and factored into new media deals. The Jacksonville Jaguars have been seen as the most likely team to decamp from the U.S. to London.

8. This year's Indianapolis 500 "will pay special tribute" to Mario Andretti and the 50th anniversary of his only Indy 500 win in 1969. According to the Allentown Morning Call, Andretti's 50th anniversary celebration will include a "commemorative logo that will be used on the cover of the race program, on special merchandise and other places to celebrate the anniversary," and the "coveted bronze badges that have long served as credentials that allow garage and pit lane access will feature Andretti." Beginning May 1, the IMS Museum "will feature a special Andretti section devoted to his entire career." Because Andretti is "still so involved in IndyCar Series racing," he will "be around IMS almost all of May.” IndyCar CEO Mark Miles said that he "hopes to make a formal announcement" about a new series title sponsor next month; NTT Data reportedly is in talks as a potential replacement for Verizon. Andretti Autosport, home of rising IndyCar star Zach Veach, will obviously be front and center throughout the May celebration.

9. The NHL and the NHLPA have announced that they have each agreed to terms to continue with The Upper Deck Company as the exclusive licensed manufacturer of NHL Trading Cards. The 2018-19 NHL season marks the 29th straight year of Upper Deck hockey, a partnership that dates back to the 1990-91 season. Upper Deck became the first exclusive trading card partner of the NHL and NHLPA from 2004 through 2009-10 and has held similar rights since the 2014-15 season. The announcement comes at the perfect time of the season, as the 2019 NHL All-Star break is now less than two weeks away, coming to the world from San Jose’s SAP Center January 24-26. The excitement brought by the league’s “Young Funs” – rising young stars like Auston Matthews, Evgeny Kuznetsov, and Patrik Laine – were likely part of the glue sealing Upper Deck’s continuation of their NHL deal.

10. With over 111 million followers across Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, LeBron James comfortably leads all players in total audience size in social as 2019 gets rolling, according to opendorse. Two MLS soccer veteran imports, Zlatan Ibrahimović (67.9 million followers) and Wayne Rooney were second and third with Steph Curry and Floyd Mayweather Jr. placing fourth and fifth. However, several of 2018’s top athletes were up-and-comers like JuJu Smith-Schuster and Kyle Kuzma, who posted the two highest growth rates and sit near the top in several other categories. The athlete rate with the highest engagement rate per post? The Washington Capitals’ Alex Ovechkin, with a rate of 6.4 % per post. Which of the leagues in North America have the largest following? The NBA. With over 721 million followers on social, NBA players comfortably lead all leagues in total athlete audience size. NFL players held onto second place ahead of the up-and-coming MLS, which earned a big bump from transfer stars including Zlatan and Rooney. The most active athletes? The WNBA, with an average 250 posts per athlete engaged in the social space.

11. A special feature of Electronic Arts’ (EA) Madden NFL 19 Championship was broadcast on primetime television in the U.S. last Tuesday as part of a deal with the NFL and the CW network. This year’s edition of the EA Sports standout, first launched in 2016, was the second to be broadcast following EA Sports’ Madden NFL 18 Challenge - reportedly the most watched North American esports broadcast in 2017. The Madden championship features players from 32 NFL franchises with a $1.3 million prize fund across four major tournaments, including the Madden NFL 19 Classic, filmed in Las Vegas last month. The event was the first installment of the new edition after a fatal shooting at a championship qualifier in Jacksonville in August delayed the start of the current series. At the time, EA raised a $1 million fund to support victims and their families. Two further “Challenge” events take place in January and March. The esports championship will culminate at the Madden NFL 19 Bowl, which is held alongside the NFL Draft in April.

12. Thuuz Sports, using their custom designed algorithms to measure real time global event excitement, determined that the Philadelphia Eagles and New Orleans Saints were the most exciting teams throughout the NFL regular season. The Kansas City Chiefs’ record-setting game with the Los Angeles Rams was the most exciting regular season game of 2018. In terms of most exciting teams, the Eagles and Saints were the only teams to have eight games register as “GREAT” on the excitement scale. KC had seven Great Games make the list, while three non-playoff teams – Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and Tampa Bay – joined the Rams with six Great Games each. The measurement scores were done on a 0 to 100 scale and take into consideration game pace, team parity, play novelty, momentum shifts, social buzz, and historical context. Coming soon: Thuuz’ evaluation of this year’s thrilling NFL post season matchups, as well as Super Bowl LIII.

13. Ricketts' soccer stadium faces political headwinds In Chicago. A planned 20,000-seat stadium for a Chicago soccer franchised owned by Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts "appears to be on life support," according to the Chicago Sun Times. Chicago Alderman Brian Hopkins reportedly rejected plans for the USL club's stadium due to its "expected impact on traffic in the area." Developer Sterling Bay and Ricketts "could try to revive the plan later, as traffic infrastructure in the area is improved during the years-long development process." Hopkins also put the kibosh on another major element of Sterling Bay's massive Lincoln Yards development: “a live entertainment district controlled by LiveNation with large music venues." Hopkins demanded the site be "repurposed as open and recreational space." Ricketts family spokesperson Dennis Culloton said the family's "potential involvement was focused on the soccer team and contingent on city approvals.”

14. The Nationals have "offered a reprieve to season-ticket holders affected" by the partial shutdown of the federal government. According to the Washington Post, the club announced that employees or spouses of employees of federal agencies "may postpone their monthly ticket payments beginning this month." Once the federal government reopens, the “next scheduled payment will be for the amount of the full missed payment(s)." Subsequent payments will return to "normal monthly installments," until the account is "paid in full by June 15." If the federal government remains shut down on February 1, season-ticket holders’ February 15 payment "will be postponed." If the federal government "remains shut down on March 1, season-ticket holders’ March 15 payment will be postponed.” Also participating in special ticketing discounts or other opportunities for federal employees in shutdown limbo: George Mason University and the Washington Capitals and Wizards.

15. PepsiCo has finalized Super Bowl LIII plans by putting its namesake soda product line, along with Doritos and popular sparkling water Bubly, in CBS' game telecast. According to AdAge, each brand "will get a 30-second spot" in the game. The 90-second total ad buy matches PepsiCo's investment last year. PepsiCo in 2018 "plugged Mountain Dew and Doritos at the same time with a two-part ad totaling 60 seconds starring Morgan Freeman and Peter Dinklage." Pepsi got a "standalone 30-second spot featuring pop culture icons" that have appeared in ads over time. PepsiCo is "once again sponsoring the Super Bowl halftime show," headlined by Maroon Five. As part of the deal, brand Pepsi "gets access to 10 seconds of ad time prior to the show.” AdAge also reported Audi is "coming back to the Super Bowl after sitting out last year," as the luxury auto brand "will use a 60-second spot in the second quarter to spotlight its electric vehicle ambitions." Audi is the fifth automaker to confirm a Super Bowl LIII ad buy, following Hyundai, Kia, Mercedes-Benz, and Toyota.

Top Five Tech

Golf gets techie with an expanded PGA Tour/Twitter live-streaming partnership. Although Twitter and the PGA Tour have teamed up in the past, a new and expanded partnership will see Twitter distribute close to 140 hours of action for free. According to SportsPro, the coverage will be showcased on the @PGATOUR Twitter account, span 28 tournaments during the 2018-19 season, and include up to 90 minutes of play from the morning hours of all four rounds of events featured on the PGA Tour Live’s OTT service. Additionally, fans will be given the opportunity to vote via the “Fan Vote Fridays” initiative, which allows viewers to choose one of two featured groups to be shown on Twitter. The new deal’s first outing will begin at the Desert Classic in Palm Springs, California on January 17. The golf industry is blossoming in Asia, and to further the sport’s global presence, the Tour has taken OTT and social media seriously in order to garner a stronger following.

Tennis and esports come together at the Australian Open. At one of professional tennis’ biggest events, the Australian Open will feature a Fortnite: Battle Royale tournament called the “Summer Smash.” The esports tournament will consist of two separate Fortnite events: the first a solo tournament featuring 100 Fortnite professional players and the other a charity pro-am event, featuring content creators, athletes, and celebrities. According to The Esports Observer, Summer Smash will be an open entry Fortnite tournament with $355,000 in prize money and five hundred entries available upon an online first-come, first-serve basis. Although the tournament is only open to Australia and New Zealand residents older than 16, it will beat out IEM Sydney to become Australia’s largest cash prize esports tournament to date. Summer Smash takes place on the weekend of January 26, and will fittingly be stationed in Melbourne, Australia’s home of esports. After Melbourne Esports Open launched in September last year, the ATP is hitting a digital Grand Slam by incorporating esports into its on-court tennis repertoire to expand its young fan base.

2019 will bring changes in how sports marketing is handled on social media. Looking back at the past year, Coca-Cola heavily benefited from the Boston Red Sox’ victory in the World Series and Fortnite launched a partnership with the NFL. Esports and integrated advertisements are powerful new elements of brand-driven activations, but a central change in sports digital marketing will be the online shift from impressions to interactions. According to Oh No! Tech, more brands are adopting incentive-based care models that include a basic compensation package for the team or league combined with different levels of rewards regarding the success of online performance metrics. Since the beginning of 2017, the top five American sports (MLB, MLS, NBA, NFL, NHL) and NASCAR have deployed more than 6.3 million social jobs, resulting in 16.7 billion social media entries. As sports leagues slowly adopt gambling, the need to create online interaction will move to the forefront of all sports marketing deals.

NBCSports Washington’s alternate broadcasts of the Wizards could be the future of sports betting on TV. According to the Washington Post, NBCSports Washington Plus aired an augmented broadcast of the game against the Milwaukee Bucks last Friday featuring real-time statistics, sports betting information, and a “Predict the Game” contest prompting viewers to project the results of on-court action for the chance to win $500. The “Predict the Game” contest featured roughly 30 questions — such as “Will Trevor Ariza score 10-plus points in the first half?” – that appeared on the screen throughout the game. Fans submitted predictions on NBCSports Washington’s site and the winner(s) were announced during postgame coverage. NBCSports Washington’s alternate broadcast is free during its eight Wizards games this season, and the alternate broadcasts are the first step towards in-game prop betting via mobile devices, the most popular form of gambling in Europe. Soon, fans will be directly engaging with sports games and be able to wager real money on whether Alex Ovechkin will score on a power play or Bradley Beal will make a three-pointer during a specific possession.

The NBA, Yahoo, and Turner rethink the sports studio show with mobile-friendly “The Bounce.” According to Sports Techie, “The Bounce,” debuting January 21, will air for three hours during five nights of the week and feature expert analysis, highlights from live games, and personality-driven content centered on current games. Similar to NBA TV’s “Gametime,” “The Bounce” will star talking heads around a studio set; however the new show will be the first sports program to be digital-only, though Yahoo’s NBA show will soon be joined by an MLB counterpart from DAZN. Yahoo will also offer a live scoreboard, social media integrations, and behind-the-scenes footage on the studio show which will be produced out of Turner’s Atlanta studios. In contrast to Yahoo’s new live-stream of every in-market NFL game, “The Bounce” will act as a portal directing more viewers to ongoing games. As it is the first of its kind, the studio show on-the-go will likely change over time although the goal will remain the same: meet fans where they are to deliver a next-generation experience.

Power of Sports Five

As a part of a Royals Associates fundraiser, Mario Kart was played on the Jumbotron at Kauffman Stadium. According to CBS Sports, a local news helicopter from Kansas City’s KCTV5 was taking an aerial shot at Kauffman stadium when they noticed Mario Kart being played inside the empty stadium. As the video of the impressive Mario Kart screen started to go viral, the Royals’ charity Twitter account hinted that there may be more opportunities to game at Kauffman in the near future as the Jumbotron brand CrownVision may make it an auction item in 2019. Some of the baseball team’s players even took notice, as second baseman Whit Merrifield claimed “dibs on Yoshi,” a character in the game. This is a great example of how to bring on-field sports together with charity and video games, as many teams are looking to esports to help not only bring in market value, but serve as a means to give back to their communities.

18-time Grand Slam champion and member of the International Tennis Hall of Fame, Chris Evert takes over chair of the U.S. Tennis Association's charitable arm. Evert partnered with the USTA Foundation in 2016 to set up the Jimmy Evert Fund, a scholarship program in honor of her late father. According to Fox Sports, she takes over the position from James Blake, formerly one of the world’s top-ranked players. The USTA foundation supports National Junior Tennis and Learning (NJTL) which works with more than 350 nonprofit youth development organizations to provide free or low-cost tennis and education programming to more than 200,000 under-resourced youth. Additionally, the Foundation provides The Donald Lawson Tisdel College Scholarship Fund, a $10,000 fund given to 20-25 exemplary high schoolers who have participated with a tennis program to put towards their higher education. With Evert in charge, tennis philanthropists can expect more initiatives based around female under-sourced youth utilizing tennis as a catalyst for change.

Medical organization SAFE MMA achieves charity status in the U.K. According to LawInSport, SAFE MMA was recognized as a charity by The Charity Commission in the United Kingdom in late December. Founded in 2012, the project was born for the benefit of protecting the health and safety of athletes taking part in MMA competitions through third-party medical screening and record-keeping services available to the public. Additionally, SAFE MMA provides independent medical advice and information to athletes to help respond to the lack of regulation or medical standards for MMA in the U.K. Founders who helped enable the establishment of the first unified standard for MMA in the U.K. include sports medicine professional Dr. Jack Kreindler, world-renowned referee Marc Goddard, veteran competitor Rosi Sexton, and independent representatives from the MMA community. With MMA growing in popularity thanks to OTT services like DAZN, the need to protect and regulate competitors is vital in a sport that can seem barbaric to some.

The charity golf series Gary Player Invitational is back in Abu Dhabi. Taking place at the Saadiyat Beach Golf Club, this year’s event saw more than 72 golf pros, celebrities, and business leaders join tournament host and Grand Slam Champion Gary Player on January 13. According to TimeOut, the event also plays homage to the United Arab Emirates' Year of Tolerance, which includes a UAE Tolerance Gala and an Inclusivity Roundtable addressed by Player. Professional golfers who have confirmed their spot at the Invitational include Thomas Bjorn, Matt Wallace, Eddie Pepperell, Shubhankar Sharma, Camilla Lennart, Carly Booth, Amy Boulden, Cheyenne Woods, and Beth Allen. Proceeds from the event will go to The Player Foundation, which has selected as local event beneficiary the Zayed Higher Organization for Humanitarian Care and Special Needs. Player is using his prestige as one of the game’s most decorated golfers to give back to those who are less fortunate while also helping to embed golf culture around the world.

Marlins manager Don Mattingly makes a difference with “Find A Way” charity event. The Find A Way event featured Mattingly, a former major league baseball player and current manager, MLB television analyst Harold Reynolds, and comedian Joe Piscopo with all event proceeds benefiting the underserved youth of Evansville, Indiana. This has become a major fundraiser for Mattingly’s charities that support youth athletics. According to the Courier Press, Donnie Baseball has another event on January 20, called the "Night of Memories," that will showcase stars from both sides of the Cardinals and Cubs rivalry to fundraise for the Tri-State Hot Stove League. Since 1993, the event has raised over $1.5 million that has been distributed to youth organizations, contributed to local athletic programs, and helped fund scholarships. Starting in 1988 with Make-A-Wish, Mattingly continues to give back to the less privileged in the communities where he lives – a useful note for the Marlins, who can use a helping hand getting any kind of media attention.

hi, I was wondering if you could do a one shot (possibly) for Marcus Armstrong where he is dating Daniel Ricciardo’s sister who is an actress. And Marcus going to support her as she goes to the movie premiere of a movie (you can choose which movie as I don’t really mind).

one shot 🎬 M.A

my third time writing a one shot so I hope this is good enough💗

Marcus Armstrong is dating Daniel ricciardos little sister y/n who’s an actress🫶🏼he helps her get ready for her first movie premiere🎬

“Marcus” she spoke as she struggled with the zip on the back of her dress.

He turned around smiling at the sight of her and mumbled a quick ‘yeah?’.

She giggled, feeling a little shy at the way he was hawking at her. “can you zip me up,please?” she said whilst batting her eyelashes.

He practically lunged at her as soon as the words left her mouth, “ye-yeah of course” he spoke excitedly. He found the zipper and slowly zipped the beautiful red dress up, settling his hands on her hips.

“thank you,baby” she smiled and gave his hand a squeeze.

“y/n, I’m so proud of you, your gonna do so good tonight okay?” He said as he rubbed her shoulders and gave her a gentle but loving kiss on her forehead.

“I love you so much, I’m so glad I have you by my side” she beamed.

“I love you too now let’s go before you’re late to your own premiere” he said as he poked her sides.

davidmalukas I thought you did write a song about her?

indycargirlfriends y/n y/l/n seen entering the indianopolis motor speedway this morning ahead of this weekend grand prix on the ims road course. the girlfriend of andretti driver colton herta has been noticeably absent this month during the open test for the upcoming Indy 500 race, and her strange behaviour over the past few race weekends has been the subject of much debate.

magicmalukas she looks pale…like a lot paler than normal…and has she lost weight?

andretitty have you ever seen y/n wear sweatpants? every time she’s been at the track she’s either been in jeans or a sundress

user3619 as someone who’s in indianopolis rn I can confirm that she doesn’t look very good. coltons been fussing over her all morning, and he’s only left her side when he was contractually obligated. it’s almost like he’s scared to leave her alone

coltonherta Everybody talks about the magic of love and how wonderful being in a relationship and finding your person is. But they don’t talk about is how unglamorous showing up for your partner can be, how sometimes, you want to tear your heart out of your chest when you see the pain that your loved one is in.

Y/N has struggled with severe anxiety and panic attacks since long before I knew her. Over the past few months, her condition had taken a nosedive for the worse. She found it increasingly difficult to get out of bed, and her intrusive thoughts made her scared to be left alone. When I came out to Indiana for the 500, many of you noticed that she wasn’t with me. She flew back home to the town where she grew up and spent time with her parents, time she was trying to use for recovery. Even though I told her that she didn’t need to come out for the two races in Indianapolis, she has always supported my career as I have supported hers.

The 500 weekend was the final straw for her. She felt on edge and overwhelmed, and struggled to enjoy a race weekend the way that she normally did. That night, I sat down with my dad and told him that I couldn’t do this any more. That I could not keep putting her through this. That I would not compete in another indycar race until I knew that she was okay.

We’ve spent the past three weeks in Maine, where we’ve focussed on reconnecting with each other. I am very pleased to announce that Y/N is faring much better. While she may never be fully ‘recovered’, I can now see the smart, funny, lovely girl that I fell in love with. Assuming things stay in this positive, upwards trajectory, we will both see you in Mid-Ohio

Peace out,

Colton and Y/N.
