Quick Shoutout: Trillionaires
In case you kids haven't checked out Club Trillion, this blog is pretty entertaining. Redneck boy from Indiana becomes walk-on who never plays at Ohio St. But he has developed a bit of a following from the folks at ESPN, including The Sports Guy. I've caught on a bit late, but I'm now including him as required reading on the right-hand side of the Board Room.
The rundown: Trillion = a 1, followed by a bunch of 0's. If you only play one minute in a basketball game, and don't accumulate any stats, then your line in the box score is a 1, followed by a bunch of 0's. Getting a Trillion used to be a mark of shame. Now benchwarmers everywhere are aspiring to be Trillionaires because of Mark "The Shark" Titus, founder of Club Trillion, and the leader of the Trillion Man March. This dude isn't a good basketball player at the elite level, though he'd dominate intramurals and pickup games. But he can write pretty well, and has a great sense of humor about himself.
Check this site out, if you haven't already.

When the Illini were at OSU earlier this week (or last week), I caught part of the 2nd half on TV. I noticed some people in the row behind the bench wearing gray shirts, but I couldn't quite read what they said. I wondered if it was something about Tressel. Although, it looked like Club True or something. In any case, now I know.
