From softball and soccer to basketball and cricket, people who enjoy a range of sports are certainly
spoilt for choice. These days, coverage has increased around so many popular pastimes, with
options like YouTube and X standing out. Podcasts are also bringing something to the table, with
sports fans having so much material dedicated to their favorite sports.

Of course, there is a strong argument to suggest that it has become a tad saturated, though. Poor
blogs are everywhere, some podcasts just aren’t worth listening to, and there are plenty of ill-
informed views on platforms like X and YouTube. Thankfully, though, there is also a wide range of
good stuff out there. That’s exactly what we’re focusing on here. So, without further ado, let’s
assess the best resources for some of the biggest sports below.

Soccer lovers have so much to choose from

The beautiful game has an impressive following behind it. As the biggest sport on the planet, there
are some fantastic resources dedicated to it. On YouTube, Spencer FC uploads content around
the running of his non-league club, Hashtag United. The Club is another channel that generates
plenty of debate. Podcasts are also a preference for many fans, with Under The Cosh hosting
some of the sport’s biggest stars. That Peter Crouch Podcast is another solid option. In terms of
blogs, the options are seemingly endless, with Natter Football, Copa90, and The Boot Room
garnering plenty of attention. X is also packed full of soccer-related content, with accounts like
HLTCO, Fabrizio Romano, StatsBomb, and Football Daily providing everything you need.



Basketball fans have an array of options

For basketball fans, given the popularity of the sport all around the world, there are some excellent
resources to explore. Whether you’re interested in nailing your fantasy picks, making the best bets
after assessing NBA lines, or need regular updates on the latest news from the basketball world,
there are a wide range of options. In terms of podcasts, No Dunks is right up there, although The
Lowe Post by ESPN’s Zach Lowe is also worth checking out. When it comes to content on
YouTube, leading basketball channels include MLG Highlights, a channel where you can catch up
on all of the highlights, Dom2k sparks fascinating debates, and JxmyHighroller covers the topics
NBA fans want to know about. Social media sites like X are also filled with respected personalities
to follow, with journalist Adrian Wojnarowski sharing the biggest news stories and the New York
Times Marc Stein being another trusted source of information.

The UFC is an ambitious promotion that is managing to make an impact on every corner of the globe. With coverage increasing around it on what feels like a weekly basis, UFC fanatics have a strong range of resources to consider. Legendary fighters Chael Sonnen and Alexander "The Great" Volkanovski are worth following on social media and watching on YouTube, UFC Unfiltered with Jim Norton and Matt Serra, plus MMA Junkie Radio, are superb podcasts, while MMA Fighting and LowKickMMA are trusted websites that share the biggest breaking news stories. 

 

Baseball fans have some go-to resources

 

Baseball is another thriving pastime that fans all around the world enjoy following. In terms of resources, there are podcasts like Barstool Baseball, Talkin' Baseball (MLB Podcast), and Baseball Tonight with Buster Olney, while YouTube channels like ESPN MLB and Baseball Doesn’t Exist are worth watching. When assessing X, some of the leading accounts include MLB and Tim Kurkjian, while blogs like MLB Trade Rumors and Bat Digest are informative.
