  Club Trillion=GOAT

  Titus recorded a 2 trillion last night. I thought he had a steal simply because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time and a deflected ball ended up in his hands, but the ESPN box score didn't credit him with it

  CLUB Trillion equals a kid not respecting or being proud of the fact that he's a Big Ten basketball player. I'm all about having fun and all, but I see this blog, and some of the things Mark has written in it, as a major jab at other hardworking players who are in his same position and who are proud of that fact.
  
  But, I hope he wins his blog championship.

  Please!!!!
  
  Did you know that he is selling "Club Trillion" T-shirts with the proceeds going to charity.
• reclegend22

  

  Maybe his tone has changed since I last read, but, when club trillion began, Mark's almost mocking tone toward his position on team (especially so publicly) would have pissed me off as a coach -- and a fan, and a fellow walk-on.
  
  But that's my opinion.
• Prescott

  Make a small donation to A Kid Again, a charity benefiting children with life threatening illnesses, and a Club Trillion shirt is yours! (Click on the image above).
  
  Yea, he is a real jerk.
• Terry_Tate

  

  I think it's great, and I love how he calls Evan Turner "The Villain."
• reclegend22

  

  Dennis Rader, who killed 10 people, was the president of a church congregation and a cub scout leader before being arrested as the BTK killer. Anyone can donate his or her time to charitable causes.
  
  He obviously isn't a serial murderer, but do you know Mark personally? I don't. But I do know that mocking your position as a walk-on at Ohio State and making fun of the fact that instead of paying attention to Thad Matta in the huddle, you play "who looks like Andy Dick in the audience" and telling the world about it is disrepectful. That's what you find in Mark's blog -- or did when it began.
  
  That's a complete mockery of the game, IMO. It's one thing to do it, but another completely to share it with everyone in the world and tell all how you could truly care less about being on the team.

  Well you are in the minority, and obviously someone that doesn't enjoy humor.
  
  I love the blog, even though I don't read it as religiously as I used to. He will make plenty of money once his days as a walk on are over.
• Prescott

  He is a creative college kid who is having some fun and making some money for charity. What the hell is wrong with that. Obviously, Matta is OK with it.
  
  Maybe, you are just jealous of Titus, After all, he has had front row seats to a Final Four run and shot around in some great arenas.

  Your opinion equals someone with a stick inserted way too far up the ol' poop chute.
  
  But, I hope people come around to taking sports as deadly serious business just like you.
• reclegend22

  

  I'm all about humor. I'm young, enjoy Seinfeld, The Office, Andy Milonakis and was voted class "entertainer" back in high school. (Lol can't believe I'm bringing that up. Who the **** cares. Ha.) My point is, I'm far from having a "stick too far up the ol' poop chute." What a terrible illustration. Please tell me how that even came off your fingertips?
  
  Anyhow, I didn't say anyone here has to agree with me. Although, I have seen others here in the past that have agreed with the fact that Mark has tip-toed around making a mockery of his position on the team. Whatever, though. It doesn't really bother me one way or the other, to be completely honest.
  
  I have friends who know Mark pretty well for what it is worth, and I really don't care for the guy. I'm not allowed to have an opinion?
• hoops23

  

  No, when it comes to bashing 'Club Trillion', you're not allowed to have an opinion...
  
  He's not doing it in light of anybody. He's doing it because he has a great sense of humor and the ability to put everything into words. It's a great blog. The whole blog about the Wisconsin game was hilarious and how he referred to the as the Wisconsin "Buzzcuts" was hilarious..
  
  Also thought it was funny how he referred to a game that he knew he wasn't going to play in as a "pants game".. Great stuff...
• queencitybuckeye

  I'm not sure how he "makes a mockery" out of his position on the team. A position where he busts his ass in practice to help the team get better with full knowledge that at best, he'll get the occasional couple minutes of PT in a blowout. I'm not sure how his observing the funny/entertaining crap that goes on surrounding the games and giving his take on it makes it a "mockery". Is it because he should have his full attention on the game situation in case he has to come in at a crucial moment? Of course not.
  
  Sorry if you found my description offensive, but what specifically is your problem with Mr. Titus and his blog, if anything other than "this is serious business".
• Prescott

  I have friends who know Mark pretty well for what it is worth, and I really don't care for the guy.

  I get it. It is PERSONAL. If you would have said that from the beginning ,I wouldn't have had problem with your post.
  
  BTW, you don't like Titus because your friends know him and you don't??
• reclegend22

  

  Haha, yes. That's it.
  
  It's not personal. I just don't care for the guy. I don't hate him; just don't really care for him. That's it. It's pretty simple.

  My only problem is what I said earlier. A few of his blog posts early on spoke of playing things such as Where's Waldo or what mom would I like to spank (just examples; not exact games) during the midst of the game or a Matta time out. I just found that to be an incredibly stupid thing to post to the world about your position on the Ohio State basketball team. I'm sure I'll be hated for saying this, but I know for a fact a guy like Casey Peters, a walk-on at Duke, would never think of doing this and then posting about it on-line for millions to see. Coach K wouldn't be too pleased to see that, I doubt.
  
  Like I said, it's one thing to play those games, but an entirely another to go post about it. That's my beef.
  
  I've also read his blog and, while funny in parts, I don't get the allure. Then again, I can't fathom how some of my funniest friends don't like Seinfeld..

  We finally have the truth. I get it!!!
