Blabbelon Gives Fantasy Sports a Voice

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Imagine for a moment you are midway through a fantasy baseball draft with friends spread across the country and someone makes “the pick.” The sort of pick that would send everyone to the floor laughing if you were all in the same room. Too bad the only one currently hearing your laughter is your dog Rufus. Enter Blabbelon. Through Blabbelon’s simple, push to talk functionality, you and your friends will be afforded the opportunity to rain down the appropriate level of criticism on your fellow players.

“Fantasy leagues are as much about socializing with your friends as they are the players and the games. While it’s always great to win or score the ultimate fantasy team, the opportunity to trash talk with your fellow competitors is what the leagues are really about.”

With just one click, Blabbelon opens the lines of communications for fantasy league players. With the advent of websites such as ESPN and Yahoo hosting fantasy sports leagues with live, up to the minute statistics and online drafts, players from anywhere in the world can come together and form a league. However, the ability to bring people together through technology has eliminated some of that live, in-person experience that made fantasy sports so popular in the first place. Enter Blabbelon, the free, push to talk, private Voice over IP service.

“Online fantasy drafts have always been missing the friendly camaraderie that you get with live drafts. Blabbelon lets fantasy leagues interact naturally – by voice. It’s really like your friends are in the room with you.” Ed Ikeguchi, CEO, Blabbelon.

Blabbelon’s free; high-quality voice chat has users up and running with just one click. Once a user enters a chat or “Blab,” they can invite participants to join. In just minutes you and members of your league can be drafting players, making critical trades and most importantly, talking trash. No downloads. No subscriptions. No hassle.

“Fantasy leagues are as much about socializing with your friends as they are the players and the games. While it’s always great to win or score the ultimate fantasy team, the opportunity to trash talk with your fellow competitors is what the leagues are really about.” Jim Crook, avid fantasy sports player.
