Remember their magazines that everybody use to jerk it to? Those don't exist anymore
You just have to try harder.

it was such a huge deal when your team of choice was featured on the cover. Fun times

If Peter King is among the unemployed, that’s good enough for me.

Same for the aggies and the Kim Petras issue.

Shocking that fatties and Trannies in bathing suits didn’t propel SI to a massive earnings record and tripling of staff to keep up.
Who could have seen this coming??

What caused the license to be revoked? Fat chicks in the swimsuit edition, causing slumping sales? Who made that decision, the (former) licensee? A declining market for printed periodicals?
I assume it was losing money, so the owner of the license wanted to stop the bleeding.

I've been receiving SI in the mail for 10 years+ now without ever spending a dime on them.
Cancelled my subscription in 2013, have zero money that has gone out or been collected by them, but they just keep sending magazines to me.
It was already a dying business, but I can't imagine their stellar business practices enabled them to adapt with the times.

The brand has been worthless for years now.

Our culture is being erased brick by brick.
Some old OU SI covers:

1969
1977

SI never really adapted to the internet and let other sports websites pass it up.
The SI website's format was horrible in the mid to late 2000s, and got to point where I quit going to the site and found other viable options.

Peter King left SI a few years ago. He is now employed by another media cesspool, NBC.
