Sat on my Bluesky "invite" back when they were starting up but just joined several days ago, @stormchaserbh.bsky.social. A critical mass of my follows are now double-posting there and Twitter, or have fully moved. Never joined Threads. Winding down my activity on the X cesspool.

I never joined Threads, my wife did and she said it’s pretty useless.
 
Hospital WiFi is weird. Won’t let me update my profile but I’ll get it eventually lol. I just added everyone so it’s me with no profile if you get a notification
 
What are some of the better Canes and NHL accounts to follow on Bluesky? Not the garbage yakkety yak stuff but the ones that actually provide good info and insight. Thanks much.

Some that I've found so far...

@notcanes is a bot that re-posts everything from the official Canes X account

Same thing with @notpierrevlebrun and @notnhl

@canesprospects is on there, too, as is @hockeystatcards, @mirtle, @spectorshockey, and @naturalstattrick

I've also set up Carolina Hurricanes and NHL Hockey tabs using the #Feeds function.

For some reason, I thought the pig(hog producer) already had naming rights?
 
Technically, State already has five names assigned to property at the football stadium. The Murphy family has the football center at the south end of the stadium that houses the football offices, training and treatment centers and locker rooms. The TowneBank Center is the tower that houses the press box, coaches box and luxury suites ... some of which comprise the Dail Club Level. That's two more sponsored names. Then the stadium itself, which was originally Carter Stadium until they attached the Finley name when expansion did away with the old Finley Field House which was the old stand alone football locker room building with a small hospitality area. So, that's the Carter, Dail, Murphy and Finley families and TowneBank ... none of whom are likely to be stepping up for an over-arching naming grant on top of whatever they've already pledged and or paid in the past ... although I guess TowneBank might be a player. I'd guess we'll end up with Corporate Name Carter Finley Stadium ... unless they kick it down to Carter Finley Field at Corporate Name Stadium, which is clunky and kind of dumb and thus 100% likely.

You left out that the stadium is actually called Wayne Day Family Field at Carter-Finley Stadium!

Yeah, my apologies to the Day family for forgetting them in the shuffle. It's quite the Christmas card list

And to be fair, nobody ever says that out loud other than on the radio and TV broadcasts
