THIS was on the Cover of SI?!?!

They really printed Conigliaro’s mongoloid eye on the cover after he got beaned upside the face. Really?
And Tony Conigliaro really wrote a by-line article for SI about the incident. Really?!
This was all way off my radar – which is apparently a pretty shotty radar, because this seems like a must read for anyone who seriously considers themselves a fan of the Red Sox.
SI.com posted a list of the Top-25 Sports Illustrated Covers of the 1970s. Check it out here.
