Magazine blog

A magazine that I enjoy reading is Sports Illustrated. Being in a sorority, I know that most college-age girls enjoy magazines such as Cosmopolitan, People, or something along those lines. However, I love to play and watch sports, which is why I love this magazine so much. Sports Illustrated generally targets men, who are usually the sport enthusiasts. If you care the smallest bit about sports and what goes on in addition to game time, Sports Illustrated is for you. The magazine especially attracts men when they come out with their special swimsuit edition, which I cannot say that I care for.

Sports Illustrated has many sides to it; it’s not just a magazine that discusses who should win the NBA playoffs or who is the best quarterback in the NFL. It contains interviews with athletes, interesting and peculiar facts about sports, and even gossip and rumors about famous athletes.

The focus of Sports Illustrated is to inform and entertain any avid sports fan. Sports Illustrated goes so far into detail that you can learn about almost any fact you’ve ever wondered about almost any sport imaginable. The tone can be sarcastic or just straight-forward facts depending on the article. There can also be a humorous tone and style. There are many variations in the articles in the magazine, so it has a little something for everyone.
