SI without a doubt. I loved seeing the cover after a major upset or comeback.

I used to love Boys Life when I was a kid.

I was a Sports Illustrated subscriber from probabaly 1990-2000 or so. Maybe a lint longer than that.

Magazines have made a bit of a comeback, but they are very expensive. I picked up a couple of horror magazines and a Halloween issue of Mad and it cost 50 bucks all together.

Could you see the political overtones in a Mad magazine if written today. They would never run out of stupid. It would last for 1 issue.

Playboy was the GOAT back in the day. Pretty women, tasteful nudity, great article, funny jokes.

I just recently subscribed to two woodworking magazines.

Before I always enjoyed runners world and triathlete magazines.
