The World of Sports is inhabited by many of the human population's most beautiful creatures. Every month, we will do Our Thirsty -30s [short for Under 30] where I will hunt and pick four athletes [a mix of guys and girls] below the age of 30 who, in my opinion, kept everyone [fans and google search advocates] either scrolling down their respective Instagram feeds or are glued to the TV and/or smartphones whenever these good-looking people are playing.
Also, A Canadian🍁 hottie will be present each month.
