Corey Brewer a drama queen?

Does anyone else get the impression that Corey Brewer is a drama queen. In last year's game in Knoxville, early in the game, Brewer hurt his ankle and started jumping around and acting a fool and drug his self off of the court like he had just been ran over. Minutes later he was back in the game. The recent UT vs. UF game in Gainesville he did the same thing. First, he drove the lane and fell and hit his hip. He layed there grimacing in pain like someone had hit him in the balls with a baseball bat. Once agian he went and sat on the bench for a few moments and then returned to the game as if nothing had happened. Later in the game he fell and his leg bent up underneath one of our guys and he started rolling around on the ground and was holding his leg only to get up and walk off the court with minimal limping. Is it just me or does anyone notice this?

He is no more of a drama queen than soccer players.

Those guys are horrible too. I think that they like to start riots by acting like someone on the other team hurt them.

Not a fan of ppl who fake injuries. especially guys who lay there for bout 2 or 3 minutes and then hop up like nothing is wrong.

I think you got the "queen" part right.

At least when those guys take a dive it is for a reason. To gain an advantage in the game. I've yet to see what good it does Brewer to act a fool. Pretty dumb.

Maybe he just has a low threshold for pain...I bet if he stubbs his toe he calls 911 immediately. Perhaps he should wear a life alert necklace or something. Help I've fallen and I can't get up!

I think that Brewer is just extremely fragile.

The fact that he is 6' 7" or 6' 8" and only weighs 110 lbs. may have something to do with that.

I have played soccer and I have dived. I just think it is one of the reasons some people don't like soccer, I'm not one of those.

I like the idea of giving players yellow cards for that.
