Track Dee Ford's Trillions
The Trillion is a quasi-stat originating from basketball. Grantland writer, and former tOSU benchwarmer, Mark Titus is most famously associated with the stat, but I remember reading about it in SI more than 15 years ago.
Here's how it works: if a player gets into a game and accrues no stats, his stat sheet will read with his minutes played followed by 12 zeros, thus a trillion. Many scrubs have been known to accrue fouls just to avoid the Trillion. I believe that Dee Ford has been active for every game this season. If that is the case, he has 12 games played, He has accrued stats in two of them. That means that in 10/12 games, Dee has racked up the ignominious stat. Thus, I propose that we give Dee Ford a new nickname: National Debt. |

First I heard of this was during the Pitt/KSU game in Maui three days ago.

He'd better get it together by the first game next year. Hali is gone. He needs to step it up.

Not to be a dick, but Gholston beasted at the Trillion. Once led Mecca to label him a decoy. Ford seems to be a similar player.

The Jets were at least smart enough to deactivate him for several games his rookie year, and his 13 tackles as a rookie looks like it is going to far outpace Ford.

I wish Ford was as impressive as an NFL player as Gholston.

At least Tyson Jackson and Dorsey played and sucked in their first year. This guy can't even get on the field.
