OleOle is the ultimate sports fanatics social networking community created especially for the most popular sport in the world: football! No, I am not talking about the one with touchdowns and meaty tackles, I’m referring to the one that we “alternative” US citizens so endearingly dub “soccer.” OleOle is for fans that take the sport beyond the stadium, who want to know more about the players, their histories, their training regimens, and stats.
Best of all, you can connect to others who share the same passion for the sport as you do. Create your own profile, start up or be apart of a fan group, discuss or start beef on the forums. You can even create your own European Super League fantasy football team and play against other teams.

Why OleOle.com It Might Be A Killer
Football fans around the world are renowned for being the craziest and most dedicated fanatics; being that these fans are both the most populous and most involved, OleOle couldn’t have picked a better target audience. This site could do for football what fantasy football sites did for American football: create an environment where fans can do both solo research on their teams, then share in groups and forums, and then compete in games and challenges. The user interface is creatively designed and deploys much of the web 2.0 technology that we’re seeing used on the more popular social networks.
Some Questions About OleOle.com
They’ve done a great job already translating the website into Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French and English, though being that soccer is truly and international sport, will they include other languages and more teams? Could they provide RSS feeds for the forums, etc?
