As @richarddeitsch.bsky.social knows, pro wrestling fans are more in tune with this current era of politics because politics resembles pro wrestling to the shock of politics-only people.

Arkansas State wins at Coastal Carolina thanks to this (correct) goaltending call with 1.8 seconds left. Game was tied at this point. Coastal led by 8 with 90 seconds left and blew it.

Funniest buzzer beater (that didn't count) you'll see this season. JMU went 8-19 from the line and gave up 14 offensive rebounds.

Hell yeah. App is now in second and with tiebreakers over first and third place.

Color versus color tonight in Boone.

There's going to be good journalism one day about this generation of GOPers being willingly chewed up and then spit out by MAGA who otherwise would have lasted 10-20 more years in Congress.

Me, a Hornets fan, RN

Oh, the Hornets are actually going for it. Neato.

As a local managing editor, when the local team isn't doing so hot, don't write about how the team is 2-15. You write about the VB kill leader who overcame shoulder surgery, the third basemen who worked hard to go from JV to Varsity, the linebacker who gets a bazillion tackles a game.

The WaPo could turn into a complete Far Right bootlicking propaganda paper and many Far Righters will still call the WaPo bleeding liberal fake news. You can't gain the subscriptions of your angriest Facebook trolls.

Context on the Post absurdity: I learned this first-hand after NC State went to the Final Four. Newspaper execs can no longer process what actually generates revenue/readers/clicks/subscriptions. They only see what things cost. Sports is expensive … even if investment in sports pays back tenfold.

In one of the 1960s Godzilla films, it ends with a massive monster battle between Earth monsters and Space monsters in front of Mt. Fuji. A reporters provides commentary & before the battle starts, ends with "...and I'm sure they'll win." That's me, a reporter, in 2026, watching this. We will win.

Went to Mountaineer Talk tonight (App State's coach's show) and our MBB coach paid our tabs, which was neat and unexpected. Funny thing is that 2 of my friends only drink the on-spdcial beer so I usually have the highest tab since I order food if I buy alcohol (margs wete on special tonight)

Ten years ago today.

One of the most difficult things about being a journalist right now is it’s considered unprofessional to be like “These people are obviously lying to our faces.” You just have to present the evidence and hope readers are smart enough to see it.

Bruh, this is Tennessee

We are so cooked

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning. Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Hooray! First App State MBB win at Troy in six years. And Troy was (and I believe still is) in first place.

Took 15 selfies trying to get a good pic and the best one was the first one.

20 years ago this month at App State.

Snow totals for me have steadily gone up this week. Now looking at 6-8 inches. We got lucky with the icing melting in between cold snaps last weekend. 20 miles north of me in SWVA had real bad icing issues.

A day with Hornets, Canes, App State MBB and WBB all winning. A good day indeed.

Funny enough, it's also the 14th anniversary of the Duck Pond Car incident. Basically, someone turned onto the road adjacent to the Duck Pond, hit the gas instead of the brake and drove into the pond. No one was hurt. And apparently the driver is now a sheriff's deputy (no joke).

A buddy is trying to convince me Southern Miss was point shaving because the total was 134.5 and they let it play out on an inbound with 1:03 left down 5. There was a SoMiss foul with two seconds left while the total was 132.

Hooray! Glad not to lose to a team recently described in a federal point shaving indictment as terrible by one of the defendants.

From Ba rsto ol Nees on IG from App State today.

Sometimes we need to be reminded of once was. For me, that's one of the famous trailer bars of Boone that was there when I lived there.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Generational hate from the NFL HOF voters.

Today is the 12 year anniversary of being pulled into an office and laid off from the first full time adult job I had. A job, I was told many times, was like family (never is). "You exceeded our expectations but it wasnt good enough." Ended up fighting for and winning my unemployment benefits.

Trump sending Homan to Minnesota after sacking Bovino is like when Napoleon kept on sending different marshals into Spain trying to end that war.

*looks out front door* "It's a peaceful life."

Late night Buffalo chicken wings baked in the oven. (I passed out from 5-10 p.m. and the wings were already dry and ready to cook from morning prep) I do half the butter recommended in every recipe because I dont like buttery Buffalo sauce.

holy shit

Here's a regular white guy (literally "Chad") not a protester. because, "It seemed pointless, or just a way for people to expiate their sense of guilt." Chad witnessed something shattering. And, that all changed in a moment. Excellent article!

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

instead of a rules analyst they should cut to a guy at a bar who missed the play licking wing sauce off his fingers “let’s check in with larry on this one” “alright guys, lemme see this replay, oh that’s some BULLSHIT, i mean you GOTTA call that”

Aonishiki, the Ukranian sumo supernova, just won the January bash, his second title in a row. He's only 21 and has a chance to become a Yokozuna in March. He debuted this tournament as a new Ozeki, the second-highest rank. Typically, new Ozeki struggle because of the pressures.

Matthew 25 is what got him. Then: "I dont want to believe in hell. I dont want to believe youre going there. But this is what Jesus says. You can walk away. You can choose justice. You can use your skills and training for good. You can be a protector. But right now you're not."

Fair or not, that could be the goal that sacks Slot.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

From coachrowe20 on X. "Emmalena and Car Creek county finals. Just another wild night in the mountains." "They just tazed Ryan."

We did it Mr. Frodo. We made it through all three extended editions in theater. Probably will be the last time I see these movies in a theater.

There should be a rule that if you are a Known Sports Poster you can say things like “holy fucking shit” with zero context but if you are primarily a Known Politics Poster that gets you like a two day ban

Every Sun Belt beat writer is about to Tweet about how Andruw Jones personally changed their childhood.
