I appreciate the thread fellas...

[ClemsonTom_]

I understand why most of you don't like the videos I make. I get it, trust me. What I don't understand is how in the world most of ya'll come up with these random rumors. I saw where someone posted a pic of me from 2006, when I lived in Gainesville, holding a Gator belt and that somehow makes me a Gator fan? Then someone said I tried making youtube videos for UF? Plus I tried doing something with the Magic? Then there was the one where I tried to use the videos to have my own sports talk show. None of those are accurate at all.

None of those are true. When I lived in Gainesville, that was in the hay-day. yes, I wore blue and went to the local bars to hangout and hopefully leave with girl on gamedays. I was in my early 20's what else would I be doing? My wife is also a gator fan, so yes, I will cheer against UT, UGA, FSU, and SC. However, I never tried making youtube videos for UF or the Magic. Whomever wrote that is an idiot. I have family ties to Clemson and family have been longtime Clemson fans.

You guys keep saying I'm an embarrassment, loser, etc. If that's how you see me, then I'm ok with it. I have only met 1 person from TI and he was the biggest dork I have ever met. I honestly wish you keyboard heroes would have a conversation with me, instead of bashing me on some message board.

I did these youtube videos on a dare from a friend and never expected them to blow up like they have. I never expected to be on gameday or sportscenter because of them. Being a clemson man, I have used my platform to help charities, like Jimbo's son, and local ones around SC. I guess you guys failed to see those, or chose to ignore them because they didn't fit the mold you have of me.

Instead of bashing me and creating rumors, how about you grow a pair and reach out to me directly. Feel free to message me back if you'd like to "clear the air". If not, then I'm cool with that too.

Welcome back CT!

You keep doing your thang Tom.
90% of the haters are wanna be snobs that think eating at Carrabas on weekends and supporting moderate Repubs like Paul Ryan, makes them sophisticated.

 

[jmed99]

I really think some Clemson fans are jealous that CT is looked at as a bigger fan by outsiders than they are.

I actually like some of the videos and your twitter feed...kinda like I like Woody Whitehurst and the others feed as well. Just a bunch of cutting up for the most part.

I honestly don't like being called the "biggest clemson fan" I don't think I am. I might be the most outspoken but not the biggest.

But some folks outside the program have labeled you as the biggest Clemson fan and I think some are jealous of that.

 

[UNSWERVINGLY]

Tom - I used to enjoy your videos when you weren't so negative and critical and just bash the other teams continuously. My favorite one was the NC State one when you were talking about Gingers. I would like to see you do more of that instead of just appearing like a redneck tough guy.

 

[ClemsonGentleman]

If you can't take the heat - quit making stupid videos.

 

[Howard's Jock]

Apparently he can take the heat.

 

[jmed99]

I admit I liked the old drinking videos better than the ones lately. Didn't someone ie. DRad ask you to stop drinking in them? Heck I liked those best!

I wasn't going to do videos this year but I was in Auburn for a wedding this past weekend and figured why not. I get your point though.

I get multiple death threats a year. Last year I got one about my son. Trust me, I can take the heat from guys in on the message board

Someone did ask me to stop, it was Billy D actually. he is a good guy.

 

[DaBadass]

In your latest one, you said that Auburn's field belongs to Clemson right after saying that we lost last time we were there. Clemson prides itself on having a knowledgable, respectful fanbase. Stuff like that doesn't make us look great. All that being said, I've seen a couple of your videos that are pretty funny.

Can't we all just get along? LOL

I did all that on the fly. Sorry is something ad-lib didn't add up. I'm extremly respectful of other fanbases. I washed the cockabuses for charity raised. I went in a dunk tank at FSU to help raise money for Jimbo's son. Anytime there is a charity, I'm usually helping. Does that meet your respectful level?

 

[ClemsonTom_]

Auburn has but mostly Scar fans

I don't like the washing the cockabooses, but the rest sounds good.

@Ron Munson what do you think of Tom's wardrobe and antics?

 

[amynhop]

Rock on Clemson Tom. Go Tigers! You ain't hurting a thing!

 

[TigerJBM]

I almost think it's hilarious. You rustle opposing teams jimmies...and the snobby jimmies from your own fanbase. People need to relax. Almost everyone I know is a Cock aND no one talks to me about Clemson Tom. @JHOBBS803 hooked you up with some more hits though.

 

[TIGER63]

Clemson Tom,

I've met you (when ESPN College GameDay was in Clemson before the UGA game). You do seem like a nice guy that's just having fun. I had an all-access pass from a friend that works for ESPN and we chatted backstage. Personally, I did prefer the early videos when you would do the prank calls.

I cringe a little on the more recent videos, but to each his own. I do think it's funny how some people get so upset about it, but making personal threats to you and your family is beyond unacceptable.

I was cracking up last night reading the thread on Facebook where the Auburn fan was totally pissed.

Go Tigers!

Dude, don't know much about your story other than seeing your name from time to time. Have no beef one way or the other, but it seems to me you are not okay with whatever has been said ..."biggest dork" and "keyboard heroes" comments suggest otherwise, but as I would assume I am someone older than you, that you have worked yourself into a position of game day acknowledgement. Congrats on that and the good deeds because that is exceptional. If you are carrying the mantra of the Clemson brand then any favorable publicity and criticisms are fair. No need to attack the one TI guy whomever it was and branding him the biggest dork. Represent Clemson the way it should be. I agree whole heartedly with your request for clear the air. Best of luck.

ive gone on record saying the videos mostly arent my style but that call to the GT library a few years ago was classic....too bad we lost the game, but I digress

Of course I'm not ok with getting emailed the thread of random people bashing me. I'm not going to lose sleep over it but dang, it's uncalled for. I appreciate your message

 

[TIGER 78]

My favorite was when he called the GT library that was hilarious.

 

[TIGER 78]

@ClemsonTom_ Unless the University tells you to stop I would keep doing you. Like you've said who cares what a few keyboard warriors think?
I follow you on FB and Twitter and constantly get a laugh at the conversations w/ Coot fans, etc.

Go Tigers!

 

[justntime]

I forgot to mention that any threat to a family member is completely unacceptable and should always be dealt with.

 

[Florida Tiger]

I honestly don't like being called the "biggest clemson fan" I don't think I am. I might be the most outspoken but not the biggest.

I wish you would post more and keep being Clemson Tom. Remember when you have a little success people will bash you harder than ever....

I'm pretty much done with them. I don't have the time really. This past one was different since I was in Auburn for a wedding.

 

[TheClemsonJaguar]

This is great news.

@TheClemsonJaguar

I mean, he has a UF themed championship belt. That's a little more intense than going out and trying to nab some strange.

I honestly don't like being called the "biggest clemson fan" I don't think I am. I might be the most outspoken but not the biggest.

Everything you've done runs counter to this statement. You clearly love the notoriety. Regardless, I don't really care about that (and I doubt others do either). What we do care about is when you embarrass our alma mater by acting like a jackass. It sounds as if that may be over so I guess its moot.

Someone did ask me to stop, it was Billy D actually. he is a good guy.

Praise the Lord

 

[The Tifoon]

Seems like an fight of classes.

On one hand you have a guy who likes to put himself in the public eye who doesn't care for the "dorky" type giving him grief for his tough guy talk to other fan bases.

On the other hand, you got dorky guy not wanting some fat slob with a low IQ making himself the face of the fanbase.

Only solution is to get dorky guy with slob for a competition with a series of events that tests both brains and brawn, Billy Madison style.

 

[ClemsonTom_]

That wasn't even mine. I saw it at the bar, figured I'd take a pick. It was made of cardboard and aluminum foil.
