| You've got to be kidding me. Sportsultra's interface is entirely non-intuitive, not to mention ugly. And, the site has been active since June 2006 and this is all they have? It's extremely rude to flame Fanboom's comment area with links to other sites, especially if those sites suck. | ||

| I would suggest www.sportsultra.com as a much better alternative. Fanboom seems to have used the same terminology, wording, etc. but does not have nearly the same amount of local coverage or video aggregation, nor anywhere near the same amount of personalization. | ||

| As a person who only is sports fan, not a fanatic, I like this site because I can easily pick and choose the teams that I want to read news about. It puts all my favorite teams headlines in one place, rather than having to sift through other sports sites for the news I'm interested in. Would like to see the site grow to include cycling and maybe even UFC (yes it's a sport, and it's growing in popularity...). Overall, good stuff for any level of sports fan. | ||

| FanBoom is really cool. Im a fan of multiple teams across the USA and fanboom allows me to view my news for the NY Jets, the Chicago Cubs, Ohio State, Jeff Gordon,and Kasey Kahne - all in one area. Their news is up-to-the minute too. Its a great siteand Im looking forward to new features and seeing this site grow! | ||

| Fanboom lets me get all the news I want for all of my teams in one simple interface. In thirty seconds I can add the teams I like and be reading news. Very simple, very intuitive, and very powerful. I'd recommend this site to any sports fan. | ||

| I'm an ex-pat for all of my favorite sports teams and Fanboom pulls everything from the Calgary Flames to the New York Mets into one page for me. Worth bookmarking for sure! Check out the blog section also, some off the collar stuff there too! | ||
