Island_Style Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 This is just darn stupid how Manti fell for the hoax. I have a feeling the ESPN or some other network created the story so he will gain more steam for the Heisman over someone like Braxton Miller or Jadevon Clowney.1) did not fall for something he was part of2) ESPN covered the story upFunny thing is ESPN called Deadspin trash not that long ago. Bit you in the ass, ESPN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But according to Manti, their parking lot meet-cute was in 2009.The more of this story that comes to light, the less sense it makes. My thinkbox hurts.

WHY DO YOU PUT HER IN A CAR CRASH AND THEN KILL HER WITH CANCER?For that matter, if Manti just went with the "dedicated player, focused student, ardent follower of Christ" narrative, no one would have made a single peep about why he didn't have a girlfriend. There wouldn't have been a single question about it, especially not within South Bend. Like I said, this keeps making less and less sense.

rams80 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 WHY DO YOU PUT HER IN A CAR CRASH AND THEN KILL HER WITH CANCER?*shrugs* This way has more finality and fewer people turn up at the funeral. Which may have to be closed casket anyway because "car crash".

HedleyLamarr Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 McCall has been strangely silent about this Te'o story.So basically, Manti found a chick on the internet, got her phone number, never met the chick, she was his girlfriend, and she needed an "out" and faked her own death. Did I miss anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 You missed that the chick may have been a creation of the cousin of erstwhile Oakland Raiders quarterback Marques Tuiasosopo because why not at this point. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
