    The new paper they use in SI is like the stuff you see for local park and rec programs.

    Henry Luce, Andre Laguerre, Frank Deford, Neil Leifer, Walter Iooss. Off the very top of my head. With a bunch more writers just behind them.

    Mark Mulvoy has got to be on the list above King. I think a couple of the other editors probably should be included.

    Peter King was the most important person at SI as it has been on its deathbed.

    Jule Smith and her swimsuit crew - Christie Brinkley, Cheryl Tiegs, et. al. belong on the list - not a joke.

    Side note - with the biweekly schedule, page count per month is down (at least) 80 pages a month. And with talk of double-issues, I'm not sure that will mean one monthly issue or a double the size version of the biweekly.

    Good call there. And totally agree on the swimsuit crew. Guessing the downward spiral would be greatly accelerated without that issue's cash influx.

    King is vanilla and guys like Chad hate vanilla.

    Can't wait for SI's next set of woke hires to realize the only thing keeping them in a job is soft core porn.

    Tangentially related: Norman Chad is insufferable.
