when your team hasn’t won a cup since gerald ford was president, not responding is really the only option.

at least canes fans are self aware enough to know we’re regional. philly’s self perceived relevance while they cosplay as nyc is adorable.

[Johnny @FlyersJohnny]

Haven’t responded to a single canes fan on any of my tweets and for good reason.

They simply aren’t a fanbase that’s worth anyone’s time.

Great hockey team, but a mild fanbase. Raleigh, North Carolina ain’t it. No juice.

if the sens had just done from the start what they did in the close out game they lost on home ice, totally different series

[Callum Fraser @CallumFraser18]

Sens would've had a chance if they had done this from the beginning. They let Carolina dictate everything in this series from Game 1. Canes don't want this smoke, as the kids say.

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

Absolute masterclass in offensive ineptitude down the stretch for the Apps. Regular season title right there for the taking, that was hard to watch.

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

@GonzoApp Reread the post from the CBS guy and it said the deal is “north of $100K”. Technically, could be anything but based on how these things are usually spun by PR folks, I’d guess it’s about $101K.

hats off, it takes serious talent to make that song worse

[KidRock @KidRock]

My halftime performance was pre recorded but performed live. No lipsycing like the haters and fake news are trying to report. When they synced the cameras to my performance on Bawitdaba, it did not line up as I explain in this video.

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

Yes, there were some horrendous, game changing calls that benefited the Bucs yesterday.

But, let’s not allow that to overshadow the fact that on a late game drive that absolutely had to get points, the Panthers called a flea flicker on a wet field from just outside the red zone.

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

A short sleeve half zip windbreaker with no shirt underneath is a true psycho move by Cignetti. Respect.

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

It’s almost like one team didn’t even know they were going to a bowl when the season ended

[Riley Maleitzke @MLS_AfterDark]

You notice how our starters enter the portal after the bowl game and not before? That’s the culture difference between app state and Georgia southern

[JMU Sports News @JMUSportsNews]

Appreciate the love @CollegeGameDay ✊

Getting swept by the worst team in football is the most Panthers way to miss the playoffs ever.

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

Didn’t a bunch of JMU transfers win in Eugene this year?

Wasn’t it Oregon that was down 34-0 before halftime in the playoffs last year?

[Bud Elliott @BudElliott3]

Stay tuned for my riveting JMU-Oregon preview.

Can JMU luck into six turnovers? Does the Ducks defensive line get COVID?

Will Oregon get those injured starters back in time to knock the rust off before their round two game?

I don’t know how we get to 15 minutes but we will.

[ACC Football @ACCFootball]

7 P4 wins ☑️
CFP ranked win ☑️
ACC Champion ☑️

@DukeFOOTBALL is one of the 5 Highest Ranked Conference Champions.

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

… to win a championship?

[Danny Kanell @dannykanell]

If conference champ games don’t have consequences then why are we playing them??

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

Tell me about it… these non competitive first round playoff games are the worst

[SEC Numbers Guy @secnumbersguy]

Texas would beat both Tulane and North Texas by 50 points.

We must get rid of the G5 automatic qualifier in the College Football Playoff!

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

@cbarrier90 He said if the coach leaves during the playoffs, he can’t take players with him. Finish the season, take the players. Seems fair to me.

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

Really hope this gets some traction. All fantastic points and a relatively simple solution that would make college football so much better and more sustainable.

[Emily Wisniewski @sportsemilyw]

#TexasTech HC Joey McGuire's thoughts on the current CFP calendar, head coaching changes overtaking the headlines & how he thinks college football can fix it

It's long but worth the listen.

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

App State’s 4D chess move to keep both Tim Beck and Clay Helton employed as Sun Belt East head coaches for a 2026 bounce back appears to have come up short.

[FootballScoop @FootballScoop]

Coastal Carolina is making a change sources tell FootballScoop. Tim Beck won't return https://t.co/Fy5RS1hypc

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

@AppStateConeBoy More of that NFL businesslike approach and if I’m honest, I really don’t care. If it produces teams that play hard and win, fine by me.

Year two will be huge for him. Rookie HC season under his belt, full offseason to recruit and work the portal. We’ll see what he’s got.

[Michael Holloway @AppStateMike83]

Heartbreaking end to a heartbreaking season. Every opportunity to close out this game but just couldn’t get out of our own way.

2026 is going to be a huge season for the App State program. Tangible progress is an absolute must.
