You'll always have your prized, framed copy of the 2023 Swimsuit Edition hanging in your bathroom, bruh

I started getting SI when I was around 14 (1970) and yes my mom would try to hide the swimsuit issue. I finally cancelled maybe 5 years ago when it was coming once a month with not much content. I really looked forward to every Thursday to see who was on the cover, especially when one of the teams I followed had a great week. The April 4 1977 issue with Butch Lee on the cover is framed and hanging in my Man Cave.

Thursdays were the best day of the week.

My Dad had a subscription to SI as far back as I can remember. By my 12th birthday I too was hurrying home on Thursdays to read it before he was home from work. By college I had my own subscription that I kept til about 10 years ago. All of those great writers - Dan Jenkins, Frank Deford, George Plimpton and more - were responsible for developing my love of reading.

I always got it and turned to the back inside cover to read Rick Reilly. 
I stopped subscribing after he left.

His "Why are we here" is framed in my office.

Curry Kirkpatrick describing Dean Meminger with his "Cheshire cat smile" was the best, aina?

Alum Steve Rushin's commentary when Marquette made the '03 Final Four made me a little misty.

Go woke, go broke, aina?

While SI has not  been important for a while now, I always knew it was still around mostly due to the Swimsuit edition. Along those lines, I was surprised to learn, maybe about a year ago, that Rolling Stone is still around. I don't know if it is still in print but they have a website.

I actually thought this happened awhile ago. I know the new owners severely cut the amount of writers and I think we're relying more on freelance.
