rajncajn Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I need something to read when I don't have access to my computr this summer. Any suggestions? I always buy Athlon or Lindy's. They're Pro Football preview mags rather than fantasy rags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Misfit Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Are there any mags out there yet? I haven't looked, but my annual letter from FF Index says it will ship mail orders to arrive by July 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaP'N GRuNGe Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I bought the Beckett/Rotoworld magazine. Not a bad one. I really like the section where they breakdown team-by-team the RB situations and give projections for the 4 or 5 RBs on the roster for each team.

piratesownninjas Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 The official NFL one is out as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Swerski Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 FFIndex Agreed. The Index is the only one I've ever read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Irish Doggy Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Looks like the usual rouges gallery is out. I buy the Fantasy Sport and Pro Football Weekly editions. Great vacation reading IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMD Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 The only two I ever buy is Fantasy Football Index and Pro Football Weekly. I do not think I have bought any others in years. PFW is very good with raw information and Index is just like the pulse on FF since it has been around forever. I have every Index back to 1994 I think.

YoungBob Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I like Fantasy Football Weekly...which is available now. Also, I usually check-out Footballguys.com...that should be available in the next week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PantherDave Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I buy them for the divisional previews, as it's good to look through someone else's eyes at each team etc. The FF section is commom fodder amoung them all and is good for comparisons acrosss the board until DMD starts pumping the well thought out info and analysis.

BeeR Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 ESPN, NFL.com (lol), and Fanball.com are the ones I saw on the stands the other day. NFL.com is a joke. The other 2 IMO looked very good. And yeah I've been a longtime FF Index buyer too (although I haven't bought mags as much in recent years). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not agreeing to pad (because that doesn't count anymore around here). I am agreeing with the above post because it accuratedly reflects my position on this subject.

Chavez Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 PFW has a weekly breakdown of all stats for all notable players in the "team" section. Very nice feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaz13 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 The one and only mag I always bought was just called Fantasy League Football. It has always ranked IDP's when most others didn't. I started in an IDP league in 1994 and there were very few at that time. The funny thing is, I just went to get this magazine and I can't find it anywhere. We used to call it the fantasy bible before anyone used computers. If anyone knows anything about this mag and if it is still being printed let me know. Last year I ordered through a site they promoted in the book "Gridiron Grumblings", which is now "Sports Grumblings". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikesVikes Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I always get the Fantasy Football Index and if I get another one it's usually Fanball. Fanball is on the shelf but don't they have an updated edition that also comes out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmutts Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Becketts/Rotoworld Fantasy Football mag comes out in July. So far it is one of the few mag's that uses a tiering system to rank players. I think it is one of the better ones out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is one of the better ones out there. This info would be incorrect as I have the magazine here in my hands and they do, do a nice job with their tiering system. I also picked up the mag about 2 or 3 days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikesVikes Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Hopefully, nobody hear reads the magazines that are on the shelves now for the rankings or the tiering system used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Hopefully, nobody hear reads the magazines that are on the shelves now for the rankings or the tiering system used. Why not? It's always fun to do while passing the time prior to preseason games/mini-camps. Now to give your statement a little more steam here's what you should've said... Hopefully, nobody here (using the proper homophone of course) reads the magazines on the shelves now for the rankings/tiering systems and then use them for their drafts two months from now.

YoungBob Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Agreed. The Index is the only one I've ever read. That was a nice cover they had a couple of years ago...I believe Tatum Bell now has a lifetime subscription. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
