I'm TK, aka T-Dog, aka Thomas, aka That App State Fan, aka the GIF guy.

App State threw 100,000 snowballs at JMU last year and didn't even get a warning.

App State Football is 23-23 since the Troy Hail Mary win after hosting College Gameday.

I'm legitimately gutted. One of the highest priced season tickets in the G5 with a mandatory donation required, no guranteed parking and overpriced concessions.

My couch is looking mighty nice next fall.

Saturday will be my 167th App State game in person and 9th this season. Haven't hit double digits in a season since 2013, App State's last FCS season. I've hit 9 games in an FBS season four times before this year and I want to hit double digits again. Depends on the Sun Belt schedule.

Cignetti's face when walking across the field post-interview looked like a man who realized he forgot to take the chicken out of the freezer despite his wife repeatedly telling him to do so.

I like the idea there is "outside noise" around Ole Miss. The noise is coming from inside the house!

There's a chance to make a relatively organic App State tradition.
an argument for storming the field after every home win
Three times this season, App State Football has won a home game, and in two of those games, fans and/or students, starting at Miller Hill, rush the field. Despite the overdramatic “do not rus…

The mood among Liverpool fans is that Slot has to be on the brink. No creativity, squad is losing passion, telling the media he doesn't know how to change things up and the margins are getting worse.

Bench Salah and Konate, go to 3 or 5 in the back, buy Guehi in January, make Szobo the captain.

In the 2000s, Boone, home of App State, had a bar/restaurant called The Library in which the servers were all women and wore the Britney Spears two-piece school girl outfit. Had a great Chicken Parm and beer towers.

The owner later committed insurance fraud by self-arson.
They should invent a library that serves beers.

There's a awful and crazy story happening in SW Virginia.

Last week, the head coach of an undefeated high school football team ran into the woods when learning police were on the way to his house as part of an "investigation."
High School Football Coach Vanishes amid Team's Undefeated Season
A search is underway for Travis Turner, a Virginia high school football coach who disappeared during his team’s undefeated season.

As a Carolina Panthers fan, this is amazing and we're probably not winning.

Wrote about arguably my favorite topic in all of sports: Jerry Jones spending $1.2 billion on a stadium built at the exact orientation so the sun shines directly into players eyes during the months when the Cowboys play football:
