The Sporting News

[korme]

Just got the freebie. Thanks you guys (whoever made the post, cthomer maybe?). My mom got a laugh out of me using our cat's name as the subscriber.

[Buccaneer]

Same here, got the issue arrived today. I am about ready to cancel already since 1) they put Favre on the cover and 2) they called him the greatest QB???? What a crock full of shit. :mad:

Greatest ever, or greatest right now?

Who's better, right now, in your opinion?

I got my freebie in the mail today also.:)

[iceberg414]

how come you all used fake names? i signed up for the free maxim, blender, and stuff using my name! Was that a mistake? if so how come? Thank-you for the hook up!

[korme]

i just wanted to iceberg, no big deal. i have wayyy to many mags under my name :)

[GoldenEagle]

Mine came as well.

[Celeval]

They have Favre as their #1 of 100 greatest players right now. Also available at http://www.sportingnews.com/

Speaking of TheSportingnews.com, take a look at the fan poll over there:

[FBPro]

My freebie came also.

[atatange1]

I didn't get mine. Although I usually get my SI's on FRI or SAT.

[Philliesfan980]

Freebie came today also. Please , I'd give my right kidney (which I could sell for 300k on ebay) for a free subscription to SI, or any other good sports/business mags.

[GrantDawg]

I didn't get mine. :(

Why would you want SI? Ugh.

[JeeberD]

I haven't recieved mine either... :(

[korme]

And the free year is over. Damn it all.

[GrantDawg]

Yeah, were are the new freebie Sporting News susbscriptions?

[korme]

I don't know, but I almost bumped the thread where they listed the link to the old sign up, not this one.

[JeeberD]

I've been getting offers from them to resubscribe for a couple of months now. Sorry, I like the mag but I ain't gonna pay for it. I barely manage to read the magazines that I DO pay for...

[korme]

I think my mom wants to subscribe to it so I have something to read in college. I better tell her to hold off on that and see if I can get another free year, or just ask to take the ESPN the Mag or SI instead. :D

In a way you have a lifetime free subscription just without delivery.

Your mom doesn't think you are going to have anything to read in college?

[JeeberD]

Trust me, you'll have plenty to read in college even without magazines... ;)

Why? ESPN the mag and SI are both all flash and no substance. Sporting News spends much more time on the actual sport than the celebirty.

[ice4277]

I've had a paid subscription to Sporting News for almost three years now, and have no idea what I would do without it. It's nice to have a sports magazine that talks about, well, actual sports.

I also have an ESPN The Magazine subscription, and while I like it better than SI, its nothing I couldn't live without.

[TLK]

Free subscription time again....

Thanks for the link!

[BigJohn&TheLions]

Thanks!

I used the name of the guy who lived here before me. I think he's dead.

[KWhit]

Cool. Thanks.

[Passacaglia]

Why a junk email address?

[KWhit]

They probably sell your address.

[Passacaglia]

I see...I chose Shorty's method, and used my cats name. But I actually crated a yahoo account for her. Did I not even need to do that? Well, either way, it's about time my cat finally started using the internet. Next thing you know, she'll want all the gadgets -- cell phone, mp3 player, and the like.

[KWhit]

I have an email address set up that I use for all these kind of signups. It is always overloaded with spam, but I don't have to worry about clogging up my normal inbox.

[Ksyrup]

Don't you need an email address you can actually check in order to verify the subscription, or is that just a lie to try to get you to give a real email address?

[KWhit]

I think it was a lie. There was no verification needed.

[Warhammer]

Trust me, you'll have plenty to read in college even without magazines... ;)

I think its more reading mags that have more than just pictures! :p

http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/%7Efof/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif To be fair, for the subscription I signed up for to be sent to my home, it is now my other cat who gets to have his freebie of Sporting News. I'm sure Smokey will be excited.

[bosshogg23]

Just got my 1st issue!

[Cuckoo]

Just got my 1st issue!

Me too. Thanks.

[TLK]

Yep, I got mine also. Two weeks turnaround, can't beat that...

[MacroGuru]

Yup....just got mine. Bro in law getting the mail in let me know.

[sooner333]

Thanks for the bump, hopefully I'll get mine in a couple of weeks. I did this a couple of years back...very clutch.

[Karlifornia]

Just got mine...it's nice to have a sports mag comin' down the pipeline! :)
