I agree about twitter and sports. For me, everyone who uses twitter and generally enjoys it talks about sports. A lot. Twitter is the best social media platform for discussing games and getting information about the game you are watching from teams, journalists, leagues, statisticians, and fellow fans. I'd wager 80% of my tweets are sports related. Twitter is the best platform for discussion of a "live" event as it unfolds. These events include TV epidoes, news conferences, policitcal debates, games, etc. A user can see what a famous person thinks or follow other hardcore fans who have great knowledge of what they are watching. I have become friends with several people due to twitter and sports. Facebook, Instagram, SnapChat, etc are not great for discussing something that is ongoing over the course of multiple hours. Twitter is. The ability to mute words and hashtags to avoid spoilers or certain subjects is super handy. In addition, one can follow multiple live events in a singular, timeline fashion. Twitter is very good at getting people to talk about live events. Its problem is that it is hard to see a place for it outside that, and it is hard to monotize that.
