I think they put a trans dude in a bikini on the cover of the swimsuit edition last year
I don't know if that has anything to do with it or not
What I do know is that I haven't stopped whacking off to it since it came outComment -

The internet ruined everything. Why pay money for information that's weeks old when you can get it instantly online? Just like newspapers had to make the switch to online content, SI should have gone cyber decades ago.
We live in an online world now which is scary because it wouldn't take too much effort to destroy internet access across a widespread region. This is also why the U.S. can't close itself off from the rest of the world. Thanks for listening to my libtard TED talk. You're welcome.

Do you believe the internet should be regulated, or is already regulated governed by the US Department of Commerce?Comment -
I remember the 70's and 80's when I was a kid, and couldn't wait for the mailman to come with my latest magazine. SI, Sport Magazine, Boys Life, and TV Guide. When I wasn't out playing, I would read those magazines over and over again for hours. What a totally different world we live in now.Comment -
I am going to have that song in my head all day now. It must have been over 20 years since the last time I heard it!

Go Woke Go BrokeComment -
Why do you keep conflating cancel culture with people spending money on things they need/want versus not spending money on things they don't want or no longer fit their paradigm of palatability?
If you don't enjoy cabbage soup and therefore don't eat cabbage soup, that is not cancel culture. Moreover, even if you once ate cabbage soup and your taste buds changed over time, or the industry started adding turmeric to cabbage soup and you don't like turmeric, removing cabbage soup from your shopping list is not cancel culture.
Now go support Big Cabbage you cancel culture monger.Comment -
Whats up Eddy? Valiant attempt but no banana.
Sorry if you hate that "go woke, go broke" IS the #1 example of cancel culture threats today!
But that's what it is. And it's the cry of today's loud Karens.
I do think they sound kinda dumb repeating it so often when they are also embarrassed to be the champions of cancel culture. But hey, we can't explain all the dumb things people do and say eh?.Comment -
You didn't address the discrepancy at all. You just repeated yourself.
The funny thing is, even the mainstream doesn't recognize your definition. Literally no one has decried cancel culture as the reason for slipping sales at Sports Illustrated or Bud Light. You're living in your own head.
If you that's how you define cancel culture, then it's never not existed.Comment -
no one reads print magazines as of he last 20 years.
online rules the day.
the fact it lasted this long is remarkable.
they went WOKE a decade ago and WONComment -
What discrepancy??
Not buying cabbage because you don't like is not similar to calling on your pals to destroy a business due to not liking that the company acts inclusive.
That's a political move to cancel the company.
And every time someone cheers at a company demise with the words "go woke, go broke' it's 100% proof that that person definitely intended it that way. Cry of the Karens!! lol
And your evidence thats not true is that mainstream media hasnt told you it is so eh....Comment -
TARGET went woke.
people don't like it? don't shop there. go to Walmart. no one cares.Comment -
The mainstream is the one that coined the term and swung the real cancel culture hammer, what are you on about?What discrepancy??

The phrase "get woke, go broke" is believed to have been coined by the American military science fiction author John Ringo in 2018. It originated in a dispute involving Ringo's invitation to ConCarolinas where objections were raised because Ringo wrote books in which the central character has impulses to rape.Comment -
I'm certainly not woke, but I am definitely brokeComment -
You can't destroy a business with a phrase, furthermore, one that's made after the fact.
And the Left is the mainstream, so when I say that even they aren't decrying "cancel culture" as the reason for S.I. or Bud Light's failure, then it kinda puts you on an island in your unfounded grievances. Even the proponents of the alphabet mafia don't call this cancel culture.
Like I said, by your definition, it's never not existed.Comment -
I grew up in the 80’s and 90’s and this was my life. Outside playing sports with friends or reading magazines during the cold winters. There was nothing better than getting SI, Sporting News and the old man’s Playboys. I would read SI articles over and over and for hours. I still have many classic covers framed from years ago. I made my kids put to down the screens and enjoy real life more and their behavior is noticeably more playful, creative and less serious.Comment -
I wasn't much a SI guy myself, when I played Pony League ball at sixteen my 'bible' was The Sporting News.
Most of us when we were teens go to was The Sporting News.
But when the swimsuit issue came out, then we paid attention to SI.
Hard copy magazines and newsprint is officially dead, exceptions being a handful of magazines like People.
Change is inevitable, adapt or die.Comment
