Soccer America named among The Best 50 Magazines

Soccer America Magazine was one of only two sports publications to appear in the Chicago Tribune's list of The 50 Best Magazines. The Tribune, which noted that more than 17,500 magazines are published in the USA, compiled its list based on, ''What we like. We picked out magazines that you'll find on staffers' nightstands and coffee tables, in our backpacks and on our car seats and on the edges of our bathtubs. These are the periodicals for which we pay good money.''
