THE VOICE. THE CULTURE. THE DATA.
CMJ DaGote | Sports Media Host, Data Analyst & Founder of Total Fandom
Who I Am
I didn't just grow up watching the NFL and NBA—I was immersed in them. What started as a childhood obsession has evolved into a career dedicated to high-energy sportscasting and sharp, culture-driven analysis. Currently pursuing my degree at Santa Monica College (SMC), I’m building a bridge between traditional sports journalism and the raw, dynamic energy of digital media.
The Total Fandom Era
In 2017, I launched my first audio platform. Today, that vision has grown into Total Fandom.
- The Show: Co-hosted with Devaughn Blount, Total Fandom is where sharp analysis meets wit and humor. We don’t just recap games; we drive the conversation with bold takes that reflect the pulse of the fans.
- The Platform: Beyond the mic, I am architecting a digital sports destination that blends technical breakdowns with the high-octane personality today’s audience demands.
What I Bring to the Mic
"I believe sports coverage should feel like the game itself: fast, unpredictable, and deeply rooted in the culture."
- Bold, Culture-Driven Takes: I’m not afraid to lean into the "meta" of the game. I speak the language of the fans because I am a fan.
- High-Energy Commentary: Whether it’s a buzzer-beater or a blockbuster trade, I bring a signature intensity that keeps the audience locked in.
- Deep-Dive Analytics: My background in founding and governing the 16-team Council Fantasy League gave me a scout’s eye for data. I track the niche statistics that others miss, giving my audience a tactical edge.
