A Joy in Other's Misfortune

You know when you just don't like someone and can't understand why? This is how I feel about Greg Paulus. You know that "star" Duke point guard, who became the not really that good backup bench point guard for the Blue Devilsm who likes to fall down when no one touches him? Yeah well he got some exemption from the NCAA and is now the quarterback for the Syracuse Orange. Due to his Duke roots, I still hate the man. I can't really explain why. He has less than zero impact on my life and if I ever met him, I probably would shout way too many curse words his way.This man has done nothing personal to make me hate him...but he just defines everything I hate.

Paulus started for the Syracuse Orange today in their opening game against the Minnesota Golden Gophers. He led his team to a fast start, at home, before the game went into overtime tied at 20. Well in his first ever college football overtime, Paulus threw an interception into the end zone. On the Gophers posession, they kicked a field goal to send Paulus home a loser.

Not only am I thrilled that he lost, but everytime he was sacked I sorta hoped he wouldn't get up. Call me cruel...but every Maryland fan SHOULD feel the same way.

MICHIGAN UPDATE:

I hate them. Almost on a Paulus level. This alumni association are like those fanstat go nuts at every meaningless play. They don't understand they are laying a terrible opponent at home, on opening day. A prestigious school like Michigan would never lose to a nobody on opening da....oh, right. Appalachian State.

Here's to hoping Western Michigan becomes Appalachian State just for the next three hours.

PESTO UPDATE:

It was very very good.
