Re: Captain Matt McKay
The Captain liked a Tweet I made for the R&R Twitter account during the game, so if it’s McKay he’s doing it from the sideline…

100% agree.ilovethecats wrote: ↑Tue Oct 05, 2021 7:54 pmI think it’s awesome and if it was actually McKay I’d love it more. So creative and love watching these guys have fun. Pretty sweet if it’s a friend too. Look forward to them every week!BelligerentBobcat wrote: ↑Tue Oct 05, 2021 7:39 pmYou think an NC State fan would care enough to continue it when he’s no longer on the team?
It’s either McKay or a close friend, and if it’s McKay, it makes it much more lame.

Re: Captain Matt McKay
Yes I do because it's a fun account and a fun idea. I remember seeing a similar thing for Andrew Luck back in the day, so it's not the first time it's been done.BelligerentBobcat wrote: ↑Tue Oct 05, 2021 7:39 pmYou think an NC State fan would care enough to continue it when he’s no longer on the team?

Re: Captain Matt McKay
Yes, Andrew Luck was the first one and then there were thousands of copies of it. I can see where people who haven’t seen it before find it amusing, I’ve just seen far too many of them. It’s all old hat to me.91catAlum wrote: ↑Tue Oct 05, 2021 8:20 pmYes I do because it's a fun account and a fun idea.

Re: Captain Matt McKay
That’s a fair take. I’ve seen several of them too. But none with our starting QB and teams the bobcats are playing.BelligerentBobcat wrote: ↑Tue Oct 05, 2021 9:14 pmYes, Andrew Luck was the first one and then there were thousands of copies of it.

There’s a ton of things that I see where teams copy other teams in regards to their university. Some great traditions out there. Hell, I like it when we play Sweet Caroline to get the students fired up, (touchy subject I learned) even though I think it was Boston College that started it.
So while I don’t have an issue with your opinion obviously, I like lots of things that pertain to MSU even if I have seen it done before. That’s probably the only difference in our opinions.

Re: Captain Matt McKay
I’m bad with sharing stuff but there’s a new McKay post about the infamous clipboard throwing tonight. It was awesome. I’m sure someone smarter than myself will post by morning!BelligerentBobcat wrote: ↑Tue Oct 05, 2021 9:58 pmI’m just a grumpy old man, that’s all.ilovethecats wrote: ↑Tue Oct 05, 2021 9:21 pmThat’s a fair take.

Re: Captain Matt McKay
I like it. It is unique. I also loved it when the running back a couple years ago had that song he wrote. (Groves)? I would like to hear what Taylor sings also.BelligerentBobcat wrote: ↑Tue Oct 05, 2021 7:39 pmYou think an NC State fan would care enough to continue it when he’s no longer on the team?
