New mag, no women

The New York Times Sports Magazine
"A magazine that presents the big, rich human stories that emerge from the world of sports."

But only big, rich men stories. No stories in the debut issue on women athletes except for a few pics of some members of the U.S. Ski team. The editor wrote that he's "eager to hear what you think" about this new mag, which will be published three more times this year. So drop him a line playmagazine@nytimes.com.
