Magazine Proposal

If I were to make a magazine I would call it "Outside the Game". This magazine would basically be a sports magazine that gives the public an athletics point of view from any given situation. This magazine would only have articles that were written from professional athletes and their take on certain subjects. More often than not the Media criticizes athletics for their mistakes on certain issues but it doesn't give the athletic who is being criticized a fair chance to voice their opinion and I feel like this would be the magazine for them to do that. The readers of this magazine would be mostly sports fans from any age, gender, or ethnicity as long as they have an interest in sports. Other magazines that I would be competing against are Sports Illustrated and ESPN.
Five advertisers that would be interested in advertising in this magazine are Nike, Reebok, Adidas, Puma, and Spalding. Five articles that could be written on my first issue are: 1)Gilbert Arenas point of view from the locker room. 2) Brett Favre on retirement. 3) Kurt Warner and his recent retirement news. 4)Greg Oden and his injuries. 5) Reggie Bush and his preparation for the Superbowl.
The cover of my magazine would have a prominent professional athlete giving his point of view from a controversial issue during that month. I would highlight a short sentence from the article that was controversial and put it on the front page so I could attract more readers. I would also make sure that the front cover had bright colors so it could be more eye catching.
