Anyone picked this piece of garbage up? Their ratings are totally wacky. They have Brian Brohm as the top QB, they have Ryan Clady as the top OT and don't project Jake Long to even be drafted until Round 2. They have Vernon Gholston as like the 6th best DE. Need I say more?

The number of eyes/readers using print media is nowhere near what it once was. Therefore, revenue from advertising isn't what it once was. Therefore overhead cannot support the talent to meet your expectations of what was once a well-respected brand in sports, in The Sporting News. This goes for any newspaper. And, it's because places like the cafe we all frequent. And, to be honest, I love being able to get the information I care about from a niche place like the cafe vs having to pour through some rag like SI or SN - sifting through crap I don't care about like tennis, Olympics, etc all to get a one-page write up about fantasy football that's already yesterday's news.

I'm actually surprised the Cafe hasn't put a magazine into circulation, but I'm sure there are many factors behind the scenes preventing it from doing so. Hopefully that will change soon!

I seem to remember a magazine on the internet awhile ago written by some cafer. Anyone else remember this?

If the cafe ever does decide to publish a mag, I got dibs to write for it!
