Greg Paulus Should Try Out For The Italian National Soccer Team
Greg Paulus Should Try Out For The Italian National Soccer Team
You're going to have to bear with me as I change my Sports team hatred over real quick....OSU Football-Out, Duke Basketball- In (I kid I kid), but seriously was anyone else aware that Duke is getting nine more fouls (5 tonight) called for them a game? Were you also aware that Greg Paulus learned his acting skills from a combination Manu Ginobili and Marlon Brando? I spliced these together so ...

GREGORIO PAULISETTI PITIES YOUR LACK OF GLAMOUR
Thirtyfive Seconds — ... bed, he is crying the Paulissima, for the hurt he takes for your love on the court. Does this heart not bleed gouts of his blood for you? Does passion of his breast not radiate from-a the thumping of the chest, the deepness of his three-pointers? You may speak, but the Paulissima will not listen, as he is in need of the the-a sleep, and wanting quiet to prevent the-a age lines from creasing the perfection of his-a face, which is creamy like the fresh hot pot of risotto. (HT: Awful Announcing. ) ...

AND THE OSCAR GOES TO... GREG PAULUS!
With Leather - Sports news and gossip, panda sex, and the occasional Toonces the driving cat Photoshop — Duke beat Florida State last night in a game that was pretty close up until Greg Paulus stole the show.  You just don't see this kind of performance very often unless you watch a lot Italian soccer.  As you can see, Paulus's acting on consecutive FSU possessions totally unraveled the Seminoles, and it's easy to see why a heady player like Paulus is destined for the NBA.  The Network of Buttfucking Actors.

Player of the Weak: Greg Paulus and Mike Patrick
Intentional Foul — ... There isn’t a lot of love for the Duke Blue Devils outside of Cameron Indoor Stadium and after viewing this video posted by Awful Announcing of Paulus’ actions against Florida State last night, it’s easy to see why: ...

Duke's Greg Paulus Pretends He Got Hit
FanHouse — Filed under: Duke Basketball, ACC Basketball, NCAA Basketball Media Watch, NCAA Basketball Video, ESPNKudos to Awful Announcing for this video, demonstrating the ridiculous flops from Duke point guard Greg Paulus against Florida State: But even more ridiculous than Paulus was the reaction from ESPN's Mike Patrick, who acted as if Florida State had put out a hit on Paulus. Apparently ESPN hasn't issued Patrick his BS detector.   Permalink | Email ...

Duke's Greg Paulus flops again
The World of Isaac — ... anything new, but Greg Paulus pulled another great acting job last night in a game against FSU. Later in the game, Paulus threw a forearm shiver that went unnoticed by the officating crew. We've seen Paulus flop before right...oh yea, like this one last year...a poor display of sportsmanship...You should get T'd up for stuff like that Credit: Awful Announcing

Weekly Waste of Oxygen
SimonOnSports — ... 4. Greg Paulus - The Brazilian Soccer player of College Basketball. King of the flop with horrible acting included. Pretending to get punched in the face when a guy taps your shoulder is incredibly lame. Needless to say I don't think anyone would be incredibly disappointed if Florida St. did in fact punch Greg Paulus in the face. It's one thing to be a scrappy annoying player like Wojo was in his day, it's another thing when you are a scrappy annoying player who attempts to cheat. ...

STF Conference Reports: The ACC
Storming the Floor — ... Why you might ask? Well, when you can get away with this, become your teams most clutch shooter, finally average better than a 2-to-1 assist/turnover ratio and be genuinely despised by every other player on every other team in the country (not to mention their fans), then you deserve it. You might hate the kid, but he has developed a mean streak and a "screw you" attitude down the stretch of games that could really be a difference maker for Duke as the ACC schedule continues. ...

You Know What? F- - - It, Good For Greg Paulus
Super, Scintillating and Sarcastic — ... defense, Greg Paulus was still a plodding, turnover-prone, wobbly-ankled bitch. The reality was, though, he hasn't been that bad this season. His turnovers are way down, from over three per game his first two seasons to just 1.5 this year. He shot well from three last year, but is on pace to surpass even that total, while still shooting 42.5 percent. But that got him nothing. People remember him being embarrassed by Eric Maynor in the NCAAs last year, they saw the, ahem, liberal interpretation of a Florida State elbow earlier in the season and, more ...
