Anyone know if or when the preseason publication will be on the newsstands?

I went magazine hunting a few days ago and the only one out was Lindy's. I'm guessing Street & Smith and Athlon will put one out as well but I haven't seen them yet.

Yeah, Lindy's has been out for awhile. And I know Blue Ribbon is out.

Lindy's and Athlon, IMO, are not very good.

Street and Smith's is better...but not as good as Blue Ribbon. But I always buy the Street and Smith's.

I agree. I prefer Street & Smith for college football and basketball over Lindy's and Athlon, no question. I also like how Street & Smith's basketball is a combo with the NBA too. Nice added addition.

Certainly understand everyone's preferences, but all the mags you buy at the store or on amazon pale in comparison to Blue Ribbon. No pics. all black and white. small print. Nothing but detailed team writeups (almost 400 pages of them), and in most cases, interviews with members of each team's coaching staff. The online edition is out, print edition should be in the mail in the next 2-3 weeks.

Agreed. Blue Ribbon is outstanding. But as for the mags, I prefer S&S over Athlon and Lindy's.

+1. The membership of this board got me into buying the Blue Ribbon book. Well worth it.

I have purchased Blue Ribbon numerous times over the years. I have gotten online, but I prefer the hard copy.
