How do you consume sports? Are you constantly on the ESPN app? Is it just Instagram and TikTok? Snapchat? X?
Are you on message boards, checking Reddit, dm’ing fantasy players?
Let me know how you do it today!
1. ESPN app - mostly for the headlines across sports
2. Tigernet - clemson specific / mostly football. Like the message boards.
3. Instagram - great place to get lots of good news
4. Maybe a google search - “when is x game?”
5. YouTube for game recap / highlights / long form.
6. Occasionally 247.
7. FotMob for soccer
YouTube for recap highlight.
Some random sites for soccer.
I mostly discuss with my partner.
I occasionally go on r/soccer purely for goal highlights
I used to use sofascore to keep track of games, but I don't anymore since I rarely sit down to watch matches. When I do want to find out when a particular match is, I will search on google
I do play premier league fantasy with a few buddies. We have our own league
Also, I don't think hn is the place to do research about people and their sports-watching habits, since most people here won't watch any sports regularly. A better place would be to go to some communities related to a certain sport and interact with the people there to find out how they do things; but also, if you're not into sports yourself and know a particular sport in and out and the culture associated with it, it's probably not the best idea to do a startup about this
I used to (mid-2000s to 2020, basically) live on message boards and listen to sports radio every day; I basically lived and breathed college football. Nowadays it's pretty much just a curated list of sports writers I like on a sports-only twitter account followed by watching most of my teams' games + a handful of interesting games going on that day using YouTube TV. There's something about the pervasive, constant nat…
I think that’s also with the news in general right now.
I have a very cheap TV package that includes something like a dozen, maybe two dozen sports channels. That's where I mostly watch soccer, but very rarely these days. I watch no other sport, and I pay for all of those channels because they come together in a bundle I occasionally go on r/soccer purely for goal highlights I used to use sofascore to keep track of games, but I don't anymore since I rarely sit down to wat…
I did some research at a football game recently. If you’re bored / interested you can find it on YouTube under “charleswilliamss” or instagram under “gethalftime”
Curious why attending in person or otherwise watching the game is not among the considerations.
I love music but I mainly Spotify - concerts are a once a quarter thing, right?
