I can't believe it! I hate Sports Illustrated and never read it, but I happened to read this one article back then, and remember it vividly to this day. The "Sidd," IIRC, was a takeoff on Siddhartha, and he wore a boot on one foot and always had this peaceful look on his face. Really well done, because it wasn't absolutely obvious at face value that it was a hoax, so it drew you in.
