Didn't read article, but it's a headline in today's NYT.

Gave up on them 4 years ago when that went through one of their format/staff changes and didn't have one word about our 2019 natty.

The swimsuit edition was once great. I still have one with Kate Upton on the cover and another with Irina Shayk.

Does that mean Pat Forde is unemployed?

I had a subscription in the 90s until I graduated high school. Tiger Rag on Wednesday and Sports Illustrated on Thursday. Epic after school dumps. RIP.

Go woke go broke. Putting a man in your swimsuit issue will do that.

Jeez, man. You’re upset they didn’t write about a championship you had nothing to do with? It’s not that big of a deal.

Maybe we could if it weren't going out of business for being woke.

It was a fait accompli. That entire industry is going the way of the dinosaur.

Lolwut?? A simple Google search shows numerous editions with lsu on the front cover. They've put out a special national title.edition every year that I can remember. Are you talking about an issue like 6 months after the game was played or something?

Just like newspapers print media is a dying breed, taken over by technology just as streaming did to blockbuster.

Gave up on them when they spread all that false information about Oklahoma State years ago. Also got a kick out of Mike Gundy calling them out.
