Sports Illustrated Falls to the Internet

[maust]

Uber Sux. Devils have been better than the Rangers over the last 10 years.

Yeah but how hard is that really? The Rangers are practically the Jete, come to think of it they even have the same know nothing vermin for fans

Uber/Lyft/Cabs all suck around Boston but I have to say U/L are better than Cabs nowadays.

They won't be in 3-5 years.

Maybe I really dont use any to often. Very lucky in that 90% of my work (gods work) is in downtown Boston. Just opened up a TB12 store on Boylston.

It's tough to feel sympathy towards a magazine that brought much of this on to itself with its editorial direction choices.

 

[Zarozzor]

Does this mean no more of the championship edition covers? I collect them for my teams

 

[dtbrks]

I’ll always look back and fondly remember all of the swimsuit issues I got when I was a kid. Elle and Kathy for the win!

Other than that, they’ve been trash for years

They’re not closing down...

P.S. Now what happens to all those poor swimsuit models.

They are all at my house now....until wifey kicks them out....

All??? F'n hoarder, that's just not right

 

[Ring 6]

It's simple, Millennials ruin everything. Where's my ball? I wanna go home.

P.S. Now what happens to all those poor swimsuit models.

I don’t know but get off of my lawn.

Did BSPN get that memo too?

P.S. Now what happens to all those poor swimsuit models.

I'd be willing to offer them shelter while they get back on their feet.. I'll go talk to my wife about it and see what she thinks

Gone the way of the cd

The internet remains undefeated

No it doesn't. I had to deal with Spectrum's website today, where literally not ONE SINGLE THING worked correctly. One second I was head of household, then I wasn't, then I was again, every single billing line read 'unable to access payment information', the icon that would bring up my email literally disappeared right off the page. These are the buffoons who run the internet now.

Looks like vulture capitalists plan to hollow out the brand by using various bloggers to churn content:

 

[Kontradiction]

Actually, the swimsuit issue will probably be more important to them than ever.

I haven’t seen the data or their revenue streams, but I probably wouldn’t continue with that if I were them. It was big in the 90s but now they’re competing with PornHub and other sites where free porn is a click away. Using a smart phone, you can find a quick DP sesh literally at your fingertips. How many people are going to shell out coin to look at super models (who SI also has to pay) when they can do that or just Google the pictures? Tech has claimed another victim. Tank it, rebrand, or recapitalize (if necessary).

Good. **** em. They're as TMZ as anyone else these days. The days of Sports Illustrated being associated with anything resembling journalism is long gone.
