This Week in Twitter is our weekly look at some of the week's best and most entertaining tweets from current and former Ohio State players and other Ohio State accounts.
There's a lot of fun things going on in This Week in Twitter, but I want to start us off this Saturday with a bit of an existential quandary from a player we all know well:
Me vs Me !
— Mike Weber (@mikeweberjr) April 24, 2021
And really, don't all conflicts really boil down to that? Except "Me versus Act of God," I guess. I saw Dante's Peak, not a ton you can do about pyroclastic flows.
Anyway, here's DeShaun Thomas putting in work in Japan for the Alvark Tokyo club. You can view his team profile here, which lists his favorite drink as Gator Raid, something that I enjoy very, very much.

Zach Harrison is smart.
Happy belated @CoachWash56

Smarter than I was in college. It's the little comments that matter.
Shaun Wade is putting in some really great work in Jacksonville ahead of the NFL Draft, and while I could type up a whole inadequate spiel about it, here's Randy Wade to give you the 411:
Former Ohio State Corner Shaun Wade has committed 5 Days to serve his community called "Cleats on Ground" in his hometown of Jacksonville Florida. He will be visiting youth organizations, Military Vets, Juvenile Facilities and others... As he awaits 2021 NFL Draft. pic.twitter.com/mKhEJavgV6

Great job out of that guy, and great job out of extremely cool and extremely paid dude Corey Linsley too!

Corey and his wife have done a ton of incredible charity work for years, and it's fantastic to see him continuing those efforts.
Other great efforts: this MS Painted Earth Day graphic from Brutus, which I feel will be tattooed on me after I lose betting on whether Columbus will ever get a light rail system or not.
HUGE thanks to the third rock from the for taking care of us!

Our next set of Tweets starts with this extremely important question (usually around 11:30 a.m. for me), and then totally devolves into fast food nonsense. I love offseason player Twitter so, so much.
What time do you eat lunch?

It's really @teevinci that's keeping them in business https://t.co/gwyHt6HKGm

Anyway, if you want to learn a little about the game of football (instead of the game of death that is a martial arts tournament in another dimension), Brian Hartline is here to help you out:

Check out the replies to that one for some other great videos.
Finally, let's close this out with an adorable dog, freaking BASEBALL, some beauty, and some truth. In that order.

Justins health, toughness and work ethic have never been an issue and I am incredibly proud of his professionalism and the character he displays on and off the field. The fact that he never missed a game at Ohio State speaks volumes about how he takes care of himself.
— Ryan Day (@ryandaytime) April 21, 2021
Always love to see a coach going to bat for a player, and hopefully the NFL listens to Ryan Day more than the white noise that is NFL Draft prognostication. Justin Fields is going to kick serious ass in the league, and I'm excited to see where he lands this coming week.
