T'eo's girlfriend death a hoax?

  • j_crazy
    This is awesome. I can't get over how narcassistic this asshole would have to be to do this.

    If Notre Dame finds out that Manti was duped, the person responsible will probably be "asked" to videotape a football practice on a windy day.

    Are people seriously buying this? COME THE FUCK ON.
    Only ND nation is buying this. Delusional.

    Dude name Ronaiah Tuiasosopo is supposedly behind the Twitter account. Friend and former HS teammate of Te'o.

    The article mentioned they knew each other, but nothing of them being teammates. Got a link?

    Looks like another story I read misquoted the Deadspin article. They weren't teammates.

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

    I really don't care much about this story, mainly because I wasn't exposed to the initial sob scheme and getting into this guy's legend. But this post is 1,000,000% correct. Our media is awful. Journalism standards have gone by the wayside so they can get sensationalism with accuracy being damned. I don't know if Te'o is gay, I don't care if Te'o is gay, I don't care where he's drafted, but this IMO reflects worse on the media than anything Te'o said.

    Former Stanford player:

    Matthew Masifilo ‏@MMasifilo
    Got to believe Te'o was the victim here. He would always ask us if we knew his mystery girl after we'd play them....

    Yep. He graduated in the winter of 2012. He was signed in the NFL by the time Te'o had already met "his girl."

    You know, the girl his father said visited multiple times over this past summer...

    LOOLLLL. Um Te'o said he met the chick after the Stanford-ND game. Why would that make me think he is a victim?

    Colin Cowherd filling in for Mike Golic tomorrow morning. Such a shame that it isn't Cowherd and Golic...that would get HEATED. You know CC would be all over the holes in Manti's story...

    Interesting, I always enjoyed Wojciehowski, but I disagree a bit with his reasoning and IMO it is pretty weak sauce.

    Nov. 28, 2009: Te'o and Kekua meet after Stanford's 45-38 victory over Notre Dame in Palo Alto, according to the South Bend Tribune

    Stanford and Notre Dame have only played one time ever? You guys are so quick to touch each other over the whole situation, you aren't bothering to read anything.

    Well looky here, a couple people who new Lennay was fake joking about it a month ago. https://twitter.com/jayRahz/status/278973792544505858 …

    Justin Megahan ‏@justinrmegahan
    And here's them joking about running the fake Lennay account earlier this month https://twitter.com/jayRahz/status/288495738856558594 …

    Justin Megahan ‏@justinrmegahan
    And here he is in early December outting Ronaiah Tuiasosopohttps://twitter.com/jayRahz/status/276073152432447488 …

    Justin Megahan ‏@justinrmegahan
    Hey, and here he is crediting Catfish as motivationhttps://twitter.com/jayRahz/status/276071308322820096 …

    Justin Megahan ‏@justinrmegahan
    And here they are trying to contact the people from the Catfish doc about the scam http://topsy.com/twitter/catfishhhhhhhh …

    Justin Megahan ‏@justinrmegahan
    Here's another since deleted twitter account discussing the scamhttp://www.twicsy.com/i/ZkTSUc

    Sean Gentille ‏@seangentille
    OK. So the "JayRahz" account that @justinmegahan found knows Tuiasosopo. Furthermore, he follows "Bamm9075." (1/2)

    Sean Gentille ‏@seangentille
    And "BAMM90745," based on his timeline, says that beyond a shadow of a doubt, Tuiasosopo catfished Te'o, and that Te'o knew nothing. (2/2)

    This still doesnt mean he wasnt in on it. The fact that Manti knows the guy makes it more plausible, imo.
    If he wasnt in on it, doesnt change the fact Te'o is a pathetic liar.

    you continue to show your lack of reading comprehension. good work.

    karen, on one hand, im glad that at least it seems like he wasn't involved in some elaborate cover-up. on the other, i'm still at a loss for words at how much of a dumbass he is. how do you consider someone you've never met a "girlfriend?"
