A typical post picks up 527 interactions against 441K followers, an engagement rate of 0.12%. Measured over 47 original posts, its engagement rate beats 71% of 3,862 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end. Posts are seen about 43K times each, and 1.22% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 9.81% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 1.9 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 23% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 22:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 47 posts sampled, 100% carry an image or video. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 5.0K interactions, about 9.4x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

20 Years Ago Sports's engagement rate beats 71% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 7 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 56% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

At 0.12%, 20 Years Ago Sports sits above the 50th percentile of the 37,350 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the above the median band, which runs 0.081% to 0.437%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 37,350 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 106,576 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

    Titans 7th round pick Cortland Finnegan has been a surprise to Titans coaches in training camp so far. The corner out of Samford University has been making plays every day and seems to have a good shot at making the roster after preseason is over. The Titans face Atlanta tomorrow in their 3rd preseason game.

What is 20 Years Ago Sports's engagement rate on X?
20 Years Ago Sports (@20YearsAgoSport) has an engagement rate of 0.12%, based on the median interactions across 47 original posts from the last 30 days against 440,677 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.12%, 20 Years Ago Sports sits above the 50th percentile of the 37,350 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @20YearsAgoSport have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 71% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,862 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
When does @20YearsAgoSport post?
Most posts go out around 22:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day, at roughly 1.93 posts per day across the measured window.
