I had my account since 2018 and my high school football coach initially convinced me to make one to show my highlights on the Internet. As a lover of all sports, I retweet crazy highlights or sports moments that catch my attention from time to time. For example, this tweet in particular was funny to me because of the way the Bucks player pointed at the opponent like &#8220;I got my eye on you!&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">u better watch it buddy \ud83d\udc80 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/e6oGQkIOS3\">https:\/\/t.co\/e6oGQkIOS3<\/a><\/p>&mdash; \ud83d\udee9\ufe0f (@bigkidaj) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bigkidaj\/status\/2020020391880839638?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 7, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I also follow multiple sports pages that constantly post team news. This is so that I can stay updated on player health or any trades. Since this is my personal Twitter account, aside from retweeting funny viral videos and other things, my page consists of a lot of Baltimore Ravens content. As a fan of the team for many years, it has been frustrating seeing a team as talented as the Ravens fail over and over again the past few seasons. We have a new head coach for the team now but this tweet from last year should show what we Ravens fans have been goin through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">John Harbaugh has blown 17 double-digit, second-half leads.<br><br>That\u2019s the most by any coach since at least 1991.<br><br>H\/T <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JoshDubowAP?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@JoshDubowAP<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2TJ26iFVa7\">pic.twitter.com\/2TJ26iFVa7<\/a><\/p>&mdash; The Athletic (@TheAthletic) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheAthletic\/status\/1964917100251918382?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 8, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Two years ago, I created a fantasy football league and I use a Twitter group chat to communicate with team owners. I send the link to join the ESPN Fantasy Football league on Twitter and once they are in, they are added into my group chat as well. My fantasy football league and sports group chat have both been growing with members ever since it started. I occasionally send league updates to the members and we also did a NCAA March Madness bracket last year. I also frequently share sports videos and memes that I find funny or outrageous.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/adrianmittosportjournal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40653\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-20-040833.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"762\" height=\"936\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/adrianmittosportjournal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40653\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-20-040833.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-258\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/adrianmittosportjournal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40653\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-20-040833.png 762w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/adrianmittosportjournal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/40653\/2026\/02\/Screenshot-2026-02-20-040833-244x300.png 244w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 762px) 100vw, 762px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One social media platform that I frequently use is Twitter (X).
