  • Sports Illustrated has been irrelevant for years since they awarded the ‘Sportsman of the Year’ award in 2017 to Jose Altuve despite the infamous Astros cheating scandal uncovered.

    Since they gave their 2016 award to LeBron over the Chicago Cubs or Leicester City, considering the magnitude and significance of what those clubs accomplished.

    Since they failed to award the 2015 honor to the racehorse American Pharaoh, who helped deliver the first triple crown in 37 years (ending a supposed-curse in thoroughbred).

    They’ve been irrelevant as they’ve angled NFL/NBA-centric stories over other, broad leagues, while reducing their own aura with “regional” covers.
