filthymcnasty08 Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 To be fair...a friend of mine died 5-6 years ago. His wife kept his Facebook page active and she regularly posts updates of their kids 'to him'. Heck I even post birthday wishes 'to him' every year. 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! LOL! I smell an executive order!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4merper4mer Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 This is Te'o's problem. No matter if he was duped or not the whole media blitz surrounding him since the Michigan State is an issue. http://www.thebiglea...dia-blew-it-up/ ESPN discussed the Bills in their coverage this morning and how Kiper has them picking Te'o. There is an article about Te'o and the Bills draft linked from the Buffalo News on the main page. I haven't read it yet so I'm not sure what is in there. I am afraid to read it. Polamalu may be involved and has connections with Whaley. And from the article you linked..... Where does that leave us? Well, waiting for Manti Te’o and his representation to circle the wagons and provide more than a released written statement, I suppose. Smoke....meet fire.

bobobonators Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) While for the last 20 minutes you've conned me into thinking I was talking to a 43 year old. See how easy that was! It happens though, seriously. I've seen it, and several others in the thread have. It's not as impossible as many portray No saint - online relationships exist. But eventually, after 3 years, people meet. Heck, what about skype, face time, etc? You're telling me they never skyped? Also, its not that I don't accept that online relationships exist, but your asking me to accept that manti te'o for all this time, rather than dating a real physical girl, would lock himself in his room and fall asleep talking to a girl he never met for 8 hours!??? C'mon MAN!! He's the starting LB for ND, heisman candidate, all-everything, and this guy doesn't date a girl he can actually touch but instead just talks on the phone for X amount of years?? Logic man. Logic faulters here Edited January 17, 2013 by bobobonators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then the hoaxsters picked up on this after to string him along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papazoid Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 must of been a "fake" Manti T'eo who played against Alabama....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You laugh but this revelation might provide him with an excuse for that poor outing , negating any potential draft order impact. Provided of course he was only a victim here and this blows over by April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then the hoaxsters picked up on this after to string him along. ya, same here. i could maybe see a woman and that Tuaalalalaualapaoapooppo character working together in this elaborate scheme. I don't know, even if Te'o was "innocent" in this case though, he's still guilty of exaggerating their relationship. That exaggeration during the football season turned a great player into a mythical player, creating a hype machine for ND and a potential Heisman.

Provided of course he was only a victim here and this blows over by April. his place in the draft all hinges on his 40 time.....if he times fast, which i doubt, he will be picked around 10-15. if he times average, which i expect, he will be picked 16-32. if he times medium-slow, which is possible, he falls out of first round.

But people exaggerate relationships all the time. I knew a guy who met a reasonably well known female TV show co-host. I dont think he did much more than shake hands and chat for a bit at a nightclub. She put him on her email list, but all we ever saw were to advertise her upcoming shows. No sign of a relationship. Nonetheless he went around for a while claiming they were an item. We just laughed it off, guy was lovesick and only kidding himself.

The Poojer Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 already a movie..."Catfish" A prank goes awry. Fake girlfriend has change of heart and wants a real relationship. Lots of misunderstanding. There is some very good romantic comedy potential in this. Perhaps it is a lifetime movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 i didn't read all 22 pages but c'mon, this happens a lot these days. that movie "catfish" and the tv show by that same name on mtv shows how this happens all of the time. the guy has a big heart, he was an easy target. i definitely believe him. he was talking to someone. and if it's like that show then it's probably a 400 pound whale who can't get guys to talk to her otherwise. i feel really bad for the guy. this has to be super embarrassing for him to admit he was the victim of such an elaborate hoax, not to mention the tears he probably shed thinking his online gf that he talked to every single day had died. i don't see how this can be held against him. a dumb/naive jock getting taken advantage of...is it really that far fetched?
