The LAFB Network

LAFB Network Origins

The LAFB Network (Los Angeles Fan Base Network) is the heart and soul of Los Angeles Sports! Launched by founder Ryan Dyrud in 2019, the site has grown from just “another” outlet into something bigger; a place where fans can get honest-factual-and-dedicated LA Sports content.  

We take huge pride in being the absolute first destination for fans of the Rams, Chargers, USC Trojans, UCLA Bruins, Dodgers, Lakers, etc.

On LAFB Network you can expect fresh off-the-press news, opinion, features, lists, and media. Each of which aims to offer the most comprehensive, in-depth analysis, breakdowns, and stories you want and need to know as an LA sports fan. 

At the LAFB Network, you’re not just getting simple stats and numbers, you’re getting a front-row seat to all the action and excitement of LA sports. 

LAFB Network is funded by The Publisher Desk via ads and where noted in articles by affiliate links. Find out more about The Publisher Desk now.
