Heckler Sports Launches To Bring Sports Enthusiasts Together

A place for real sports fans to share sports news, heckle live games and really get in the game

BERKELEY, Calif., June 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Just in time for NBA Finals comes Heckler Sports, the first comprehensive all sports social network that also allows fans to heckle one another in real-time. Heckler Sports is not just another sports site. It has been built from the ground up to be the sports social network upon which other sports sites, publications, leagues, teams, athletes and individual users can share content.

Backed by former Heisman Trophy winner Tim Brown and former NFL Pro-Bowler Everson Walls, the LIVE feature on the platform provides fans and athletes the excitement and banter of the stadium right at their fingertips. Wherever you're enjoying the game - whether it's from the stadium, the airport, a local bar stool or the comfort of a couch - you'll never miss a high five moment or an opportunity to bash a bad call again. Heckler is the best place to breakdown plays, heckle other fans, and follow your favorite teams and games easily on your computer or mobile device. With Heckler, you can heckle and rally friends to join in on the action during a game in real-time.

"I am so thrilled to be a part of Heckler Sports," said Tim Brown, legendary NFL wide receiver. "Wherever I plan to watch a game, I have a whole community of friends and fans at my fingertips to enjoy the game with. It's like having the excitement of the stadium in my living room."

More than a sports news site, the SPORTS BAR feature makes Heckler the perfect place to engage with sports news socially, reacting with friends and sharing their love for the game with fellow fans from all over the world. Additionally, you can add photos and highlights from your office baseball team or share a YouTube video of your daughter's first soccer game with your family and friends.

"The future of social networking is in shared interests," said Baayan Bakari, CEO and co-founder of Heckler Sports. "Sports are meant to be social - whether fans are cheering from the stands, gathering at a local sports bar, or playing in their own sports league. People want to do more than just watch the game - they want to discuss it, share their excitement with other enthusiasts and really be a part of the action. Heckler makes this all possible."
