I put a call into the life insurance company, so we're good to go here! I'll be able to afford those touchdown club tickets after all! ;-)

Come on BTP not even you are that cynical are you??

Ever occur to anyone that you just subjected yourself to mailbox after mailbox full of junk mail?

Why do ou think it's free?

And from a site that has nothing but a temp page up apparently, because there ain't nothing at www.magscentral.com

My 2 cents

No, Boss...you're wrong on this one. I wouldn't have posted it if wasn't totally legit and on board. Like I said initially, I signed up under a nickname and I've gotten...maybe...2 or 3 pieces of junk mail under that name since.

The reason it's free is that magazines lose BIG money when they're subscriptions drop below a certain level. They are audited annually to make sure they aren't ripping off advertisers by inflating subscription numbers. When the numbers dip off, they contract with these companies to get them subscriptions...and quickly. As you can see, the link is dead already...I told you that you had to be quick. I'll try to find another one.

Again...I wouldn't have posted something that would have just brought me hardship. I thought you guys might enjoy a couple of free years to the Sporting News...I know I enjoy it.

Also...I've said this before...but when your subscriptions start showing up...post back here so that everyone will know...

Yeah, I got my today and I'm still alive.

Plus we already get junk mail for Frank N. Stein or Ben Dover

I got mine Friday as well. Too bad it was damaged in the mailing process. Thankfully it was a baseball cover.

I recieved my first issue of the sporting news yesterday, It must have gone through the first time i tried it

JansenFan · Post by **JansenFan** » Mon Apr 04, 2005 10:07 am

Yep, got mine too...after the small explosion that occured when I opened it, my cover was damaged too. Someone at the post office must have read you guys's and go the explosion first.

DieselFan · Post by **DieselFan** » Mon Apr 04, 2005 3:28 pm

...glad to see they showed up...and thanks for posting it back here...gotta keep my good name in the clear...

I signed up a subscription for my dog, and she hasn't been getting any junk mail yet. Thanks Diesel.

I'm on my fourth issue now from the original offer.
No phone calls, no additional mags, no spam, no junk mail.
Thanks, Diesel.

I haven't recieved any junk either.

All of my covers have been damaged, though. Pretty bad, too. That's my main downside to this whole deal. I've still gotten them all, though.

Justice Hog · Post by **Justice Hog** » Mon Apr 25, 2005 4:44 pm

Well...I missed out on the offer(s). I'm hoping they offer it again...but not sure where to look if/when they do.

I'll PM you if it comes up again...as for jake's covers being damaged??? I don't know man...maybe time to fire your mailman...mine always come pristine. one theory: you're the top of the bulk mail they send out, so you're get tooled up? I don't know...just guessing.

Received my second issue today and the cover was also messed up and detached. What's up with that? Are they sending us their damaged product?

skins81 · Post by **skins81** » Mon Apr 25, 2005 7:34 pm

I have sent to my home and my work now, and they are not damaged.

Still no spam after 4 issues.

It isn't our maillady's fault. They have stickers that say they arrived damaged. Although I heard she is a drunk.

All my covers come ripped up to.

But it is a good magazine, and like my mom always says "It's on the inside that counts"...
