Paul Collins: Hi. This is Paul Collins, not to be confused with the famous Irishman called Michael. That's my brother's name. I was called Paul because my father said no one could shorten it, like they did my brother's name. Michael became Mike, Mikey, Mick. So people just lengthened my name and called me Paulie. Sometimes, I guess, you're not supposed to win.
