ABOUT US

The Fanatics View is a sports video website dedicated to delivering sports video content to sports fans worldwide. The Fanatics View was formerly established in 2014 and officially launched in January of 2015. We pride ourselves on being an “alternative” sports media outlet, showcasing sports clips that are not necessarily shown amongst mainstream sports media outlets and we equally pride ourselves on providing instant and on-demand highlights for sports fans. Ultimately, we function as a centralized source for sports video content and as a 3rd party host of sports videos.

The Fanatics View covers all sports from Football, Baseball, Basketball, Hockey, Boxing/MMA, Tennis, Lacrosse, Golf, Racing, Olympic Sports and more. We also cover all levels of sports from the pro’s to college to amateur athletics.

The Fanatics View covers all types of sports videos with a focus on: video interviews, radio interviews, press conferences, spectacular play highlights, news stories, sports panels, sports video games, fan made videos, sports documentaries and “prospect” highlight tape postings. As of May 2014, we also produce original content through interviews & podcasts.
