I started Topbin90 as an outlet to talk about football and I never Imagined I could turn this into what it's becoming. I like to think of Topbin90 as a way for fans to get the latest information and an outlet to voice football opinions in an interactive and entertaining way. I believe the future is about creating content that is informative and enjoyable and that is what Topbin90 will always be about.
