The loop

Three taps to your first take.

No box scores, no hot-take television, no thousand-word column. Just the story, the question, and a side to pick.

01

Pick your leagues and teams

Follow the Suns, the Vols, the whole NBA, or all of it. Your feed only shows the news that would actually make you say something.

02

Swipe your take

Left to doubt it, right to back it, up to skip. Every card asks one clear question about one real story.

03

See where you land

The split appears the moment you vote, with your friends' calls listed underneath. Then argue about it in the replies.

Too steep
Worth it

The deck

Not everything is a yes or a no.

A trade needs a winner. A hot take needs a dial. A ranking needs an order. Every question gets the card it deserves.

Breaking

News

The signing, the firing, the injury. Good deal or bad deal, called before the takes settle.

Hot Take

Hot take

Slide the dial from ice cold to scorching. Nuance is allowed, but only a little.

Trade

Who won the trade

Both sides laid out, gets and gives up. Pick the winner and stand behind it.

Trivia

Trivia

One question, four answers, no lifelines. The only card you can actually get wrong.

Ranking

Ranking

Best of the four. Your order against everyone else's, settled by the crowd.

Score

Score predictor

Call the final before kickoff. Tonight's game, locked in on the record.

Buy or Sell

Buy or sell

The hot start, the slump, the rookie. Are you buying it or is it noise?

Head to Head

Would you rather

Two names, one roster spot. There is no third option and no fence to sit on.

The result screen: 63 percent say yes, a red and green split bar, and a list of how three friends voted.

The verdict

Does the crowd back you up?

Vote and the room opens up. You get the split, your standing in it, and the names of the people you follow who called it the other way.

  • 01

    The split, the second you vote

    Thousands of fans on one bar, updating live as the rest of the country weighs in.

  • 02

    How your friends voted

    Named, one by one, yes or no. You know exactly who to text when the deal goes through.

  • 03

    Share the result

    One tap sends the card and the split anywhere, and it unfurls as the real thing rather than a grey link.

A Stampede profile: Fan DNA reading Cautious Optimist, optimism and rebel meters, team cards, and a list of recent takes marked majority or rebel.

Your Fan DNA

Your fandom, measured.

Every swipe is saved and dated. Over a season that history says more about you than any bio would, and it is not always flattering.

  • 01

    Doomer or believer

    Your optimism, and how often you break from the crowd, measured per team rather than in the abstract.

  • 02

    Your takes, on the record

    Each one tagged majority or rebel. When a call ages well, you have proof. When it ages badly, your group chat has proof.

  • 03

    Streaks and standing

    Show up daily and it counts. Out-vote the rest of your fanbase and the badge follows you onto your profile.

Drag the dial instead of picking a side. Lukewarm is an answer, if a cowardly one.
