November 3, 200520 yr Since I already subscribe to it, is there any way to get the Sports Illustrated White Sox Championship Package besides subscribing? I was looking around and couldn't find another way. Thanks for the help.

I was looking around and couldn't find another way. Thanks for the help. Call them and tell them you want to add a year or two to your current subscription. They will accordingly send you out the Sox Package. Edit: I think if you would prefer you can buy the package for $49.95 or something...but you're better off just extending your subscription as I will probably recieve SI for the rest of my life anyway.

November 3, 200520 yr I had this popup come on my screen when leaving si.com https://subs.timeinc.net/SI/bks_ws05_pop.jhtml Looks like you can order the book for 19.99 +shipping Edited November 3, 200520 yr by Controlled Chaos
November 3, 200520 yr Not worht its own thread but your B&N currently has the Pods issue that came before we on it all (still wrapping my head around that statement) and they have the commemorative issue for $7 that is about us being world champions. I won't read mine because I want to keep it in great condition to get it signed but it looks like a nice item for those of us trying to load up on memorabilia on the cheap. It has the shot with Blum, AJ, Jenks, etc.

November 4, 200520 yr Author The one thing I really want is the Chicago Tribune of last Thursday, but I don't see any way to get that.
November 4, 200520 yr I imagine its different than the hardbound one (I would think anyways) you get for subscribing but there IS one at Barnes and Noble. Not sure what the sell by date is for it but there was a big stack when I went today, its only 7 bones, so you guys gotta pick one up. Either read it, save it, frame it, get it autographed-whatever. Good buy though if you ask me

I saw an 800# on chicagotribune.com that advertised reprints and framing, but in my searching for that number again, I have come up dry. I'd like that under glass myself.

November 4, 200520 yr I'm a little disappointed that the Sox WS victory only merits a corner photo on the newest SI. The cover is PManning and Tom Brady. That couldn't have waited a week? (ps I know they play MNF, but I think that happens more often than the Sox winning the Series)
November 4, 200520 yr Anyone get the White Sox SI Commemorative Edition magazine? I got it for 6.99 at Walgreens. All White Sox coverages with features and amazing pictures. Definitely worth 7 bucks. Had season and world series recaps too.

(ps I know they play MNF, but I think that happens more often than the Sox winning the Series) I agree, when was the last time the World Series winner didn't get the cover? I was appauled...but used to it.

We got the cover the week beforehand, didn't we? I think that sometimes they don't like using the cover on the same story 2 weeks in a row.
November 4, 200520 yr The Red Sox were on the cover of Sports Illustrated November 1st for during the World Series and November 8th for winning the World Series...back to back weeks. The 2003 & 1997 Marlins were on 1 cover and that was for both winning the World Series. The 2001 Diamondbacks were on back to back covers, but that series went to 7 games and featured a massive blown save by Mariano Rivera. The 2002 Angels only got 1 cover and that was for winning it all. So, if it's Boston or New York...2 covers. Anyone else, 1 cover.

November 4, 200520 yr I think if there weren't the biggest regular season football game in probably the last decade, they might have put the Sox on again. I do think that by now its sort of "old news" because they wrapped it up during the middle of the week in game 4. Pats-Colts is the easy choice for the cover given that its MNF and simply an enormous game

November 4, 200520 yr QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Nov 4, 2005 -> 08:20 PM) where would he play? Can somebody help me? I've been looking for the soft-cover Sports Illustrated Commemorative Edition (not he regular WS edition or the Hardcover special Edition) on the World Series. Someone posted a copy of the cover here, but I haven't been able to find in anywhere locally. I live in Colorado, so maybe it isn't available here. I tried contacting SI, but they didn't seem to know what I was talking about. The photo has AJ and Jenks hugging in the middle. Brian Anderson and Brandon McCarthy are coming in on the far right. Has anyone seen this issue? Can anyone get a copy of it for me? I would, of course, pay you for it (I could even throw in a McCarthy rookie card).
