Sports Illustrated sports simulation line
There were only a few official Sports Illustrated sports simulation games published by Time, Inc., Inc. Avalon Hill later added to the "line" when they acquired the name, but those games were already on the market (or in the pipeline) under separate publication and have nothing to do with the "10-39 dice" system used by all of the official SI games.
