Sports Illustrated and it's many images
I will occasionally check
out the online news from Sports Illustrated magazine and the most recent
package of news I read contained diverse types of images from the most recent
week in the NFL to the Baseball postseason. Many images were of sports players
on their respective sidelines during game watching on as the ballgame played
out. For example, there was a very good picture of the Houston Astros dugout
from their most recent postseason game as players were walking back from the
field with mud on their shirts and teammates greeting them with high-fives.
Not only were different sports
represented in each image, but different races were as well. Football,
Basketball and the other sports’ athletes come from diverse backgrounds and
even though the NBA and NFL are predominantly black, there was diversity among the
images. My favorite was of the Oakland Raiders sideline after they scored the
game-winning touchdown on Thursday night football. There were many pictures of
players celebrating an achievement made on the field of play as those tend to
make the best sports pictures. Sports Illustrated has a vast array of readers
and their images reflect that diversity from images of a black man sacking a
quarterback on the football field to a Hispanic Astros player prepping for his
at-bat.
Sports Illustrated covers
areas for all sports fans but mainly focuses on Football, Baseball and
Basketball which are the three most popular sports in the country. The NBA
season has just begun so there many images of the first games and superstars like
LeBron James than there were images of the Hockey season which has also started
recently so this magazine, like many others, accustoms to the majority fanbase.
