Does Manti Te'o effectively back door his way into being the first openly gay NFL player? You know perfectly well what you did there.


A forward thinking front office, with a forward thinking coach, lands a lying, burrito replacement for Urlacher in Chicago. Why not the Bears? However, if Illinois makes that type of marriage legal, which I support, it will be a whole new scene at the Hinsdale Oasis Panda Express.

Now I don't know what to believe.

If this other guy supposedly met her, does that mean he was a victim of these catfishers as well?

Hmm. How the fuck does this fit into the story?!?

http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/8851033/story-manti-teo-girlfriend-death-apparently-hoax

Swarbrick said Te'o never met Kekua in person. "What I will tell you, this was exclusively an online relationship."

Reagan Mauia, an Arizona Cardinals fullback, said he believes Kekua existed because he met her in person when he and other Polynesian teammates and Pittsburgh Steelers star Troy Polamalu went to do charity work in American Samoa in June 2011.

"This was before her and Manti," Mauia said Wednesday evening. "I don't think Manti was even in the picture, but she and I became good friends. We would talk off and on, just checking up on each other kind of thing. I am close to her family. When she was going through the loss of her father, I was -- I offered a comforting shoulder and just someone to bounce her emotions off. That was just from meeting her in Samoa."

Mauia said Tuiasosopo -- whom Mauia believes is Kekua's cousin -- introduced the two. After the initial meeting, Mauia said he met her at an "after-party" for all of the athletes involved in the camp.

"She was tall," he said. "Volleyball-type of physique. She was athletic, tall, beautiful. Long hair. Polynesian. She looked like a model ... "

He said it is his understanding that Kekua's mother is operating her Twitter account. He said he'd never met her mother. When told by a reporter that she apparently might not have existed, Mauia said: "No, she is real."



I'm not that internet savvy. My apologies.

The videos on the link include Teo claiming that he met her.

Wojo also states that he asked Teo about the family after finding no death notices, and was asked not to contact them.

Whatever chick is on Fox Radio has vacationed in Hawaii a number of times and doesn't think Te'o will be allowed back on the islands. She was serious.

Her name is Amy something.

Google "Manti gay" and see what the chatter is: seems even the gay peeps are saying that it is quite obvious that he was bearding, and that his family may not have known that he flew that way, so he likely killed off the virtua-date to avoid a reveal.

. . . I don't know if that explains all if his stupid behavior, though.


Well, he tried to have sex with a girl at ND to show he wasn't gay, but it didn't go over as planned and ND just covered that up, as well. This guy can't win.

Here's a different angle.

Isnt it better for him if he admits it was all his idea? Whats more dumb? Getting duped by a non existing woman or scheming to get publicity?

If its the latter, it worked. If he was duped, he's an idiot who lied about it while it was happening including saying he talked to this girl for hours every night. I'm kind of thinking that if it was a hoax, the people fucking with him would not talk to him for hours EVERY NIGHT.

Who does a hoax for three plus years anyway?

From CNNSI. The Kate Upton reference was made to make Keeping Score post his feelings about the hoax.

Swarbrick says Te'o found out in December that Lennay Kekua was not real. And then ... well, here is a transcript from a Jan. 3 press conference before the national championship game:
Q. Manti, how have the football‑related commotion and excitement of the past year helped you get through the turmoil you've faced with your grandmother and girlfriend? And how have the quiet periods been for you, given you more time to reflect? Is that a good thing or double edged?
MANTI TE'O: I think whenever you're in football, it takes your mind off a lot of things. You know, this team is very special to me, and the guys on it have always been there for me, through the good times and the bad times. I rarely have a quiet time to myself because I always have somebody calling me, asking, do you want to go to the movies. Coach is always calling me asking me, "Are you okay? Do you need anything?" I have three roommates, Zeke, Carlo and Robby Toma, who are always yelling at each other, who's going to play Call of Duty. I'm rarely by myself, and that's how I like it. I'm always around my guys, always around my family.
What do we make of that? Technically, Te'o did not lie. But he did tell a lie of omission -- somebody asked him about his dead girlfriend, and he declined to tell the truth: That she did not exist.
This was a pattern for Te'o. Everybody assumed he met her in person, and he certainly indicated that he did. Swarbrick says when Te'o said "met" he included online communication. By that standard, most men in this country have spent time alone with Kate Upton.

Manti Te'o story is bizarre whether he is a victim or not! Jack Swarbrick did as well as possible w/circumstances!

So Bend Tribune has pulled story that exposes Te'o as a liar. The one where he met the girl. THAT's interesting.

So ESPN knew about the Te'o story before the BCS title game. I'd love to know how many ESPN employees bet on Alabama.

Not sure I get that. I mean if making up a girlfriend helped him beat Michigan State why wouldn't it help him against Alabama, or did they think the story was going to break before the title game?

It's not out of the question they've now found a patsy. Millions, and possibly jail time are on the line.
