DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Can't wait to hear what Peyton's Forehead, Not Bill Walton, Fake ESPN, etc have to say about this! I'm sure their jokes will be original and not repeated by everyone you've ever met.All that's probably already happened tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rams80 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I, for one, am going to miss the "Death stalks Manti Te'o" narrative. It adds flavor to the season and an element of risk to associate with him in any way.

pcgd Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I'm gonna play devils advocate here, but its possible he felt embarrassed about being in love online and told people he meet her. Then it spiraled out of control.It's not likely and wouldn't absolve him of fault but might explain his actions.Seems like he should have been on MTV's Catfish about a year ago...

The_Admiral Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 What I took from that press conference was "there's a show called Catfish and they talk about it on Dr. Phil and these things happen all the time." Do I hear the hit single "Two Princes"?

infrared41 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 There is NO way he didn't know what was going on. Unbelievable story.Isn't there some sort of mental illness that makes people do this type of thing? I could swear I saw a non-sports story similar to this. Then again, maybe I'm making up the part about seeing it before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
