MikesVikes Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) Fantasy Football Index by far. I think that FFI, Football Guys and Fanball are the only ones that I read. Fanball won't be the same anymore, imo so that's now off the list. Edited July 2, 2008 by MikesVikes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Someone Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Fantasy Football Index by far. Yeah, I gotta agree. FFI is outstanding. Lots of info. Lots of good stats to back up their opinions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Irish Doggy Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I like Pro Football Weekly - not for individual rankings, which are poor, but for the detailed reports on each team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 FFI is the only one I used to get regularly. Don't think I have purchased a mag in the last 3-4 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Talker Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 I began reading FFI in '97, and it has always been my favorite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hollywood_69 Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) IT WAS THE HUDDLE MAG!!! I am lost without it actually, last season I went with the fantasy guru magazine. Not 2 bad actually. Don't know this year? Edited July 2, 2008 by hollywood_69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wolf Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 FFI is the only one I used to get regularly. Don't think I have purchased a mag in the last 3-4 years I am with you on that...with so much info available at The Huddle, I don't buy a FF mag except for reading on the airplane.

jakesdad Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) Yeah, Fanball the mag and website are lost without Charch, Tuvey, and Kamla...I still use it's Commissioner for 4 leagues just cuz of the year to year stats. Those 3 are FF studs tho. Now I just use The Huddle website. Edited July 2, 2008 by jakesdad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westvirginia Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Jugs, followed closely by Cheri. I haven't purchased a mag since finding the huddle. Seriously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rattsass Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 I have been a FFI reader for years. Don't always agree wtih them, but they are by far the most legitimate of the contenders out there. I do read a few others every year, but mostly just for laughs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 FFI, FBG, and Roto were the best 3 according to some sharp guys at the ffmagazinereview.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zooty Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 I used to always get The Sporting News but after seeing the preview, I'll save my $5. Maybe I'll try FFI for the bathroom but I really don't use the mags anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belushi Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 FFI is the only one I buy. They always have some interesting insights that make me re-think some of my projections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swiss Cheezhead Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 When the internet started rockin' and rollin' with the FF movement, the magazines definitely fell behind. That lasted for a few years. Last year, though, I went back and checked out a couple of mags again, and I was VERY impressed. ESPN's product was actually very good, and FFI's content was downright outstanding. They're still comfortably at the top. I believe that, once Web sites got big, the magazine publishers realized that they really had to dig deeper for meaningful stats and generate off-the-beaten-path analysis -- otherwise, they wouldn't be able to compete with the internet and its huge edge in timeliness. So, we're now seeing better strategy and more interesting/unusual numbers-crunching than you get on most Web sites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitbull739 Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 I have not bought a magazine since I joined the huddle. I had one in my hand in the airport news store the other day, but I felt shameful and just put it back. I may have to check out FFI since it is getting so many good reviews. How do they keep it from being outdated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do they keep it from being outdated? They don't keep it from being outdated, but the opinions they express are well reasoned and thoughtful, which is more than you can say for the majority of publications out there.

Footballjoe Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 My favorite mag is whatever is in "the library" when I need to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungBob Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 I'm certain to be in the minority here...but I love reading FF magazines. Though the bulk of my research and draft planning are performed at a couple websites, the magazines still get me. I'm always in for picking up FFI, Fanball, FootballGuys, Rotowire, Rotoworld and FantasyGuru. Call me crazy but I enjoy picking one up when I'm out on the deck, on vacation, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
