After four years as the recipient of regular teabagging (memo to neocons haters of federal government expansion who were curiously silent until Jan. 20, 2009: we’re not talking about your tea party nonsense), Duke’s Greg Paulus has readied himself for the next level. Pro Football Talk reported yesterday that Paulus, a former Gatorade national HS player of the year on the gridiron, worked out for the Green Bay Packers over the weekend.
There are a million great jokes that we could roll out here, but we’d be hard-pressed to overcome the job that Chris Mottram at the Sporting Blog has already done for us. Pure brilliance. (h/t Sporting Blog)
Paulus immediately drew three roughing the passer calls before running into the endzone, slapping the grass twice and then having this happen to him:

This is why you should stick to basketball. Neocons and the tea party movement protesting the ever expanding reach of the federal government are not mutually exclusive. In fact, I'd say the tea parties are probably about as far removed from the basic tenents of neo-conservatism as they can possibly get. It's like saying Ron Paul & Newt Gingrich are equal. Obviously they are not and aren't remotely close. Then again, if you want to argue that tea parties are analogous to respecting the restrictions placed on the federal government as per the US Constitution then OK. But then you would be saying that the US Constitution is nonsense. I mean, maybe you think that, but my guess is that you should obviously stick to basketball.
I'll stick to basketball when you explain to me the curious notion of these "haters of the expansion of govt" having their little teabag parties now. Where were they the last eight years? What changed in the past two months that has them so upset (other than their pending tax cuts) that they feel the need to protest now as they sat on their hands during the last eight yrs of federal govt expansion? Sure is odd, feller.
Sounds like he may be going to Michigan to play a year of college football.
