That Time Magazine (http://hawaiithreads.com/showthread.php?t=5638) thread was cool. Did you know you can do a similar search through the covers of Sports Illustrated (http://dynamic.si.cnn.com/covers/advancedSearch)? So what was on SI when you were born?

Here's mine (http://dynamic.si.cnn.com/si_online/covers/issues/1969/0106.html), which would have been the day after my birth. It's the Baltimore Colts running roughshod over the Cleveland Browns. Neither team is today where it was in 1969.
