jcbillsfan Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 must of been a "fake" Manti T'eo who played against Alabama....... No that was him. That is what happens when a Mac team plays an sec team
Heels20X6 Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 I feel a song coming on! Tay, Tay Tay-ay-ay-o (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) Tay, Tay Tay-ay-ay-o (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) Come Mister Tally Man, tally me a girlfriend (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) Come Mister Tally Man, tally me a girlfriend (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) Tay, Tay Tay-ay-ay-o (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) Tay, Tay Tay-ay-ay-o (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) Hide the deadly black tarantula (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) Hide the deadly black tarantula (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) Tay, Tay Tay-ay-ay-o (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) Tay, Tay Tay-ay-ay-o (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) (Daylight come and he got no girlfriend) Change "Daylight" to "Deadspin" and you've got something you can sell to Weird Al! Irregardless of how this plays out I think its quite obvious our POTUS needs to look at tougher regulations on fake girlfriends... look how it is affecting so many! But if we take away the right to fake girlfriends, only the criminals will have fake girlfriends!
Beerball Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Change "Daylight" to "Deadspin" and you've got something you can sell to Weird Al! Dammit!!! That would have been so much better. But I can't Barbarian my OP.
l< j Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 I still hope to go 8th. Maybe this will be forgotten if I'm playing in a media black hole. You got nothing to worry about, you'll be a Bill come April. Haven't you seen all the mock drafts? kj
eball Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Has anyone checked on joe the six pack? He might be on suicide watch.
RyanC883 Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 I saw this earlier. Not a good month for him. It appears that he has been exposed as both a player and person. I do not like ND, but I hate to see something like this. It will be interesting to see how he responds to this. Apparently, he declined an invite to the senior bowl, but presumably will be at the combine. I heard on the radio this morning that other "anonymous" ND players knew/highly suspected she was never real. Whether this is because Te'O told them, or because of other factors will be interesting to find out. Good timing for Lance Armstrong.
stevestojan Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Whichever way you feel, it would be in your best interest to search twitter for "Te'o". It's times like these when the Internet shines its brightest: @ndyWillis: I hope they bring Te'o's girlfriend back in season 3. @funnyordie: Manti Te'o will meet even faker girls once he's an NFL millionaire. @EvilMikeTomlin: Manti Te'o just changed his Facebook status to 'its complicated' @FauxJohnMadden: On the bright side for Manti Te'o, his relationship was probably better than any Taylor Swift has had. @clubtrillion: Somewhere Donald Trump is trying to make a connection between Te'o (Hawaiian) faking a GF & Obama (Hawaiian) faking his birth certificate. And my favorite yet: @DConDelight: "Manti Te'o may have just pulled the 3rd grade "I have a girlfriend. She just goes to another school," prank on the entire United States."
simpleman Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Ah the internet...where the men are boys the women are men and the boys are fbi agents
zow2 Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Very weird story indeed. Kind of believable in a way because Manti is mormon and maybe he doesn't need to be in the physical presence of his GF like other red blooded american men (so he could easily be duped and manipulated by an emotional long distance relationship). But then again, waaaaay too convenient that her funeral was on gameday and according to Manti, she insisted he not attend. So i flip flop that he either rolled with the big lie or that he was really 100% duped.
The Avenger Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 First off, kudos to Lance Amstrong for inventing a fake girlfriend and snaring Te'o months ago - that took some real foresight and his genious plan is now paying big dividends - damn that guy is brilliant! Seriously though, if the public believes Te'o was involved in this hoax rather than being a victim (and that seems to be how public opinion is playing out at this point), look out - Hell hath no fury like a public duped. Seriously, people will have more outrage at being duped by something like this than if Te'o was involved in some sort of drunk driving accident - he could probably get away with killing someone easier than he could with inventing a fake girlfriend who died of cancer...
KD in CA Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Holy crap, 23 pages? Did some of you stay up all night? I won't have much time to look today, but has the media found the girl yet? What is her story?
Dorkington Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Either he's low character for creating this scenario. Or he is a big !@#$ing idiot. Either way, his NFL stock is dropping.

Punch Posted January 17, 2013 Author Posted January 17, 2013 Pat Forde @YahooForde I've been told by two people that ESPN's Jeremy Schaap will conduct the Manti Te'o interview. Jeremy is an excellent reporter.
eball Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Either he's low character for creating this scenario. Or he is a big !@#$ing idiot. Either way, his NFL stock is dropping. He'll be a great UDFA pickup.

NoSaint Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) He'll be a great UDFA pickup. if he runs a great 40, and was legit tricked here - he will still be a first rounder, easily. his 40 time will be way more important than any of this unless it comes out hes in on it.

Hater Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 I like to say that we haven't heard the story & the media is going wild with speculation & rumors trying to shape our opinion to theirs, its a bizarre story I agree & I have my own doubt but trying to hold back on any judgement until the facts are all out
KollegeStudnet Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Is there any reason to bring his religious beliefs into it? I guess you didn't read what I posted... the founder of his religion was proven to be a con man similar to what people are speculating about Manti All I posted was the similarities
DrDawkinstein Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 He's got a long way to go before he compares to his father. Who are you, Bobby Knight?!?
