About 1fan

Every sports story gets covered the same way by fifty outlets in the same hour. Same headline. Same quotes. Same take.

1fan exists for the other angle. The teammate nobody interviewed. The number in the contract that changes the story. The collapse everyone watched but nobody explained.

We cover soccer, the NFL, and the NBA — one story at a time, written by people who actually watch the games.

Who runs this

1fan is founded and edited by Shawn Vink. Every article carries a byline and a date. When we get something wrong, we say so on ourcorrections page.
