I never buy Athlon's because Athlon's is nothing but shite and I don't spend money on shite.

Lindy's is based in Alabama, but my sentimental pick is still:

Shouldn't you have posted this under the diddlydawg or pioneer alters?

I bought my son a copy of Lindy’s to read in the car on our toad trip. Actually found an Auburn cover in Atlanta

I still buy Dave Campbells for all the high school info. They cover every high school in the state, public and private.

I miss the late summer days of running from the car straight to the magazine rack at winn-dixie and sitting my 10 yr old arse in the middle of the aisle and reading Lindys and Athlons. I had usually already purchased the pro and college Street and Smith's the day they hit the rack.




Yep


What about The Sporting News?


I remember it being mostly a baseball newspaper….

I usually shop at Kroger and they haven't put out any CFB magazines yet. With how small their magazine section has become I'm not sure they are going to bring them out at all.

I ended up going to a Tom Thumb to find the new Dave Campbell's Texas Football.

I'm sure tRant will love this year's cover.

Who buys magazines anymore?


Streets and Smith used to be the gold standard. Now all the magazines are written by fans of certain teams and they try to cater to that fanbase.

1,000,000x better than any of the other Arkansas High School football mags we have.
Be thankful we at least have it.

I’d buy all them and read them entirely plus I got to know about all the other conference’s teams. Loved the perceived bias, Lindys is an Alabama publication.

I haven’t bought an Athlon in 20 years.

However, as a teenager, I’d read it cover to cover several times.
