The Manti Te'o Dead Girlfriend Hoax Web of Lies

Imaginary Lover - Atlanta Rhythm Section - YouTube

Between the Snuffuluffugus reference, the brady bunch clip, and this I would say the thread is a hit.

Dude, she was so into me, she said she couldn't go for the philosophical types any more. It all makes sense now!

She told me I had the biggest font she had ever seen.

Come on! I forget that. Shes definitely faking at first rite?

Yup. I loved the Brady Bunch Movie's take on that scene.

Jan: His name's George... Tropicana!
Carol: Oh that's nice, is he Cuban?

What a bullshit story!

WOW

Let me add more bullshit to it, Te'o fabricated the story to get Heisman votes or to cover up his sexual preferences.

There are too many pieces to the story and in the end, I hope the kid owns up to his mistake and move on.

If it was for votes, he lost and played like shit in the Championship game. Time to move on and run a great 40 so he can get back into the first round.

If he is gay, he has a chance to be a hero for many young men. I have no idea how welcome he would be in the locker room but he has a change to make history.

Hopefully he has the courage and the support to do the right thing.

Put away the tin foil hat bro. I doubt he did this to drum up Heisman votes or detract people from knowing he was gay. If that were the case, he wouldn't have made the elaborate story of her dying or having cancer. That would be drawing attention to something you really didn't want exposed. Besides, how many athletes do you know currently that are having their sexuality challenged?


Kid just got duped like a many other people in this world. You all act as if this is something rare. It's not. People fake things all the time on the internet, and you can connect with people without ever meeting them. Now, if he was involved in this whole thing, kid should be kicked in the balls for using cancer to gain sympathy.

I've actually been wondering about how an openly gay player would be accepted in the locker room. I'm sure, publically, players and coaches would say the right things and show support. However, I can see alot of guys being uncomfortable changing clothes, showering, etc. in presence of an openly gay player. However, if you arrange a seperate area for that player to change/shower, then youre isolating him and he doesnt feel like he's "part of the team."

I can also see opposing team players saying some really awful things on the field. Players talk smack and i sure they insult eachothers mothers and use derroagotory slang for gays when talking to eachother all the time - its a reality that smack talk is part of the game. Would players be sensitive to the gay players feelings, and obstain from "gay-related" smack talk? Or would it give them extra ammunition to say some really awful things - not only to the player, but to his team mates?

Right or wrong, as a practical matter, i could understand a gay player's making up a story to cover over his sexual preference. And while thats a popular theory thats been speculated on here, and other places, i dont see it. Some of his teammates say he really loved talking about his imaginary girlfriend and relished the attention. It could be he's just an attention whore.

HE DID NOT GET DUPED.

HE SAID HE MET HER.

HE SAID HE TALKED TO HER ON THE PHONE EVERY NIGHT.

HE LIED.

Sorry for the large font, and bold text, but people keep making comments that conflict what is KNOWN to have actually happened.

Pretty sure I read even his father talked to this woman on the phone. Right after Te'o's grandmother died.

Sooo. I'm guessing Te'o made one of his guy friends talk like a woman?
