I think it has made fans just be a bit more toxic thanks to social media. I never really watch many sports, but anything just becomes toxic and not fun thanks to social media.

I think it keeps fans engaged and up to date. Helps them get to know their fav athletes on a more personal level. As far as fans bickering with each other on the internet? Thats everywhere, not just in sports-related social media.
