Kind of ironic that the cover of SI shows a missed call. We were taught, as early as park league, to never leave it up to the refs to decide a ball game. You will be sorely disappointed. This was re-emphasized in middle school and high school. We lived it last year on the final 2 plays of the game.

You can touch a facemask, you just can't grab it.

I will have to try and find them too. I'm thinking I'm going to have to go 40 miles south of me. Closest Book the Million is down that way!

Someone tag me if there's more found...I'll get them up in the gallery.

TIA>

i always hit up the local wal-mart (even though i can't stand shopping there). they usually have a display stand with all of them put out up front by the registers and then one in back where the other magazines are. when we won in 2009, they had a HUGE display that had about 6 different magazines on it. i bought 2 of each one. i like to get one to keep and read and then one to frame. i'm still missing a couple sports illustrated issues, though; the last 2 with BAMA on the cover from last year (aug 14 and dec 14). might have to hit up ebay for those.

and while i'm not a fan, like everyone else, of the collector's edition cover with Coach Saban on the cover wearing the hat, i'll still get it sinice i'm a completionist. not sure if i'll get one to frame though. that thing is just.....tacky.

Is that cheaper than going to the SI store and buying back issues? I assume that would be a good starting point for older editions.

the only one from last year they have as a physical copy is the one from december. the other one is digital only (says it's out of print). and the physical copy from december is $15.99. pretty sure i can find it cheaper on ebay, even with shipping.

i wish they'd do more like this...

i've got the 2 they did, but i'd like one for each commemorative edition they release.
