Publisher Description: The comic strip, Girls & Sports, currently appears in over 150 mainstream newspapers and 75 college newspapers nationwide, including the New York Daily News, the Denver Post, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, and many more. Girls & Sports has even become a hit in Stars and Stripes, the newspaper distributed to the United States military worldwide. The comic strip now reaches over six million readers daily through the prominent Creators Syndicate. For their first full color, book-length work, creators Justin Borus and Andrew Feinstein chose to fearlessly tackle the issues most important to single people, including dating, sports, relationships, the bar scene, working out, parties, vacations, and much more. Opening Lines, Pinky Probes and L-Bombs: The Girls & Sports Dating and Relationship Playbook treats readers to an honest and humorous look at dating and relationships. This smorgasbord of advice features charts, graphs, pithy observations, not-so-obvious truisms, and sports-influenced strategies. The book covers the whole cycle of a relationship, from "Getting the Night Started" and "Scouting the Prospects" to "First Dates" and "Going All the Way" to "The Serious Relationship" and "Getting Out of the Game" (i.e. getting married). Fans of the strip and new readers alike will love this irreverent guide to all that is girls . . . and sports. |
