Re: Manti Te'o Bizarre Story
Front page of the paper here and all over TV. Hawaii's football team is so bad the only thing to report on is local kids doing well at other schools. Still not clear whether he did this to embellish his image or if he was punked by one of the Tuiasasopo cousins. Maybe he should go on Oprah.

Re: Manti Te'o Bizarre Story
Too many holes in the story. Most glaring ones that immediately come to mind:
1) He has alluded to meeting her in person before and his dad has said it directly several times.
2) He never met her in several years of normal "dating"?
3) He never went to go see "the love of his life" when she was dying?
4) He didn't go to her funeral?
5) Modern college kids never tried to Skype? EVER?

She looks a little too pale for my taste.

Will Ti from Manteo...
...return to being a regular caller on the Gold N' Ovaries sports radio talk show and on Pirate Radio 930, or will he man up, face the music, leave Notre Dame and go on to the NFL? What say ye?

The N&O just released a statement saying the person behind the Manti Te'o scam, was indeed not just one person. It was the entire UNC Football Department.

"We deeply regret the trouble that one UNC football player caused the bizarre and unwarranted hoax on Manti Teo. Marvin Austin and Tar Heel football will once again be punished for Austin's insistance on integrating the phenomenon, Twitter, to college football players all across America. We will be diligent, and we will make our University a better place. Our sincere and deepest regrets and apologies go out to Manti and his family." Holden Thorp

Re: Manti Te'o Bizarre Story
This... dtownheel has nailed it... as much as I hate it, Teo almost certainly had to be in on at least some of this....

Isn't Teo's story a bit like hearing about a mail-order bride who died on the way to her new home.

Re: Manti Te'o Bizarre Story
the worst is that twitter pic that Mantits Te'o sent out with the two rays of light shining down on him during the game and he implies that it is his 2 guardian angels watching over him from heaven. nothing worse than faking something that many many people take very seriously.

Online romance is a beautiful thing when used properly. Never get too attached Manti.

Re: Manti Te'o Bizarre Story
Maybe I am just getting too old to fathom these type of things, but how the heck does someone have a girlfriend and then never actually meet her in person? When I was growing up, that was a freaking pen pal! Basically there are two possible explanations for this: 1. He is a pathological liar or 2. He is a wacko

You're not asking me, but my theory is he is gay. The imaginary girlfriend was his way of explaining why he did not date during his years at ND.Perhaps keeping up the ruse became too stressful so he killed his imaginary girlfriend.
And no, I have absolutely no evidence to support my theory other than pure speculation.

I've thought all along, the closet door is now open and we can see you standing there. Not that there's anything wrong with that, just be honest.
