What a SI cover honoring women would look like

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

195. Ah, yes....let's get into the rarefied air of your intellect....

....as you sniff down your nose with dismissive comments about the great unwashed who would read such pedestrian trash.

I apologize, I have a tendency to do this....like to the right wingers I encounter who like to project what MSNBC does on a daily basis when they themselves never watch it....if you're going to make up bullshit, try to get near the net on the shot. And I can do all this while not being a particularly avid reader of SI, or a daily watcher of MSNBC. I read and watch enough of the subject to know when someone else is talking out their ass about it. Plus I did grow up reading it a lot more than I do now. I also walk and chew gum at the same time.

As far as how many women grace the cover, well considering the four major pro sports are male competitive sports, not many in a given year, obviously. However, as I pointed out and you likely don't care....three of the four Sochi preview covers featured woman Winter Olympians. So 4 of the 5 athletes on the various covers just two weeks ago were women. And it also included some of the breathtaking photography similar to what you posted of women athletes in action. Quite frankly, I wonder how many of the images you Googled probably appeared in SI originally.

As far as the swimsuit issue, I haven't even glanced at it yet and am in no big hurry to, nor have I jumped in much on the threads supposedly praising it with my "pals". I just think it's hilarious when you post talking in your absolutes and come off sounding like one of the FOX News crew crying about the librul media never saying a thing about Benghazi but focusing on Bridge-gate. It's like your Liz Hasselback and Sports Illustrated is CNN and Chris Christie's wearing a thong while being objectified by Anderson Cooper or something.
