    Old man needs sports fix...

    My father in law is not on the internet. I want to get him a subscription to some sports publication that delivers a physical paper/magazine. Needs to be weekly so it has current times and lines. College and pro football. USA Today is a fall back, no times and limited sports info but at least it has most of games and lines. Any suggestions?

    When you say "USA Today is a fall back", you're probably speaking of the regular edition, correct?
    Did you know USA Today has a full sports edition called Sports Weekly? I used to subscribe.
    Here you can see back issues and order. It comes every week in the mail. I can't vouch for what it's like now.
    I would think there is more betting stuff with the legalizations, but you could call and ask. The Gold Sheet is strictly for handicapping, you can view samples:

    Different states. otherwise I would just print some stuff and drop it. Could also mail but I want zero hassle. I call him on Saturdays and he gives me his picks, I play his $200 parlay and it keeps him off entertained. If he loses I pay, if he wins I keep it...

    Have not bought it in years but I like the Gold Sheet. Guess it's a matter of opinion.
