AOL Latino launches Fanáticos.com.

AOL Latino kicks off its coverage of the Olympic Games in Beijing with the launch of Fanáticos.com, http://www.fanaticos.com, a sports blog destination written by a team of seasoned sports writers from Mexico, Argentina and the U.S. The site focuses on fútbol (soccer), baseball and boxing teams from the United States, Mexico, Latin America and Spain, and will include coverage throughout the duration of the games.

“Latinos are passionate about sports and their favorite teams, and Fanáticos offers them a culturally relevant, Spanish-language outlet for their opinions,” said Miguel Ferrer, AOL Latino’s Director of Programming. “In fact, Fanáticos bloggers and the community will define the tone and flavor of the site.”

Fanáticos content is comprised of nine leading sports bloggers, whose expertise provides varied viewpoints into this highly anticipated, global competition.
