Rick Reilly moving to ESPN
 

Just heard about it on sportscenter. His articles will start appearing in ESPN The Magazine starting in June. I'll be switching from SI to ESPN The Mag just for him, I love this guy.

Wow. They must have paid him a dork-load of money.

On the subject of magazines, and I guess you could throw in other print media like newspapers, there is a belief that these mediums are rapidly (and perhaps obviously) becoming obsolete due to the Internet.

That said, does anyone think there will still be a place for these long term (5, 10, 20 years)? And if so, how/why? (waiting situations such as a medical office, the barbers, and yes the washroom come to mind).

Who?

Nice. I always liked Rick Reilly more than most people on this forum. I don't get SI anymore but ESPN keeps coming even though I haven't paid for it in at least 3 years.

See, making this move was as surprising seeing a bishop at a porn convention. It left me more wide-eyed than Reche Caldwell after a truck full of Red Bull.

But you never know where the line is until you actually step over it. It's funny how sometimes a Boulder kid ends up making the boldest move of all.
