cbfalcon 827 Posted January 17, 2013 $5 says he's gay and dating Tuiasososososopo and this is their extremely ill-conceived cover story. I actually had the exact same thought when reading the intitial story on dead spin. And honestly, if that is the case, coming out with that whole truth is probably the best conceivable defense he could possibly come up with. It's his one chance to undo some of the damage. People would be sympathetic even...maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IGotWorms 4,063 Posted January 17, 2013 Reagan Mauia, an Arizona Cardinals fullback, said he believes Kekua existed because he met her in person when he and other Polynesian teammates and Pittsburgh Steelers star Troy Polamalu went to do charity work in American Samoa in June 2011. "This was before her and Manti," Mauia said Wednesday evening. "I don't think Manti was even in the picture, but she and I became good friends. We would talk off and on, just checking up on each other kind of thing. I am close to her family. When she was going through the loss of her father, I was -- I offered a comforting shoulder and just someone to bounce her emotions off. That was just from meeting her in Samoa." Mauia said Tuiasosopo -- whom Mauia believes is Kekua's cousin -- introduced the two. After the initial meeting, Mauia said he met her at an "after-party" for all of the athletes involved in the camp. "She was tall," he said. "Volleyball-type of physique. She was athletic, tall, beautiful. Long hair. Polynesian. She looked like a model ... " He said it is his understanding that Kekua's mother is operating her Twitter account. He said he'd never met her mother. When told by a reporter that she apparently might not have existed, Mauia said "No, she is real." http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/8851033/story-manti-teo-girlfriend-death-apparently-hoax Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MedStudent 56 Posted January 17, 2013 So, if te'o was indeed a victm of the hoax, should he be happy that it was a hoax since that means his fake gf never died? I'm 95% sure Te'o was in on the whole thing but some friends are telling me stories about people they know who carried on internet crap with people they never met. He's gotta be one focken dumb fock to not have figured this crap out. And some of the stuff he said in the past seems to contradict his story that they never met. I'll just let the truth slowly unravel on this one. But let the suicide watch begin. Te'o is a sleeper in the death pool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, Te'o said that he met her at Stanford, and Te'os dad says that she visited him in Hawaii a few times. I don't know, I guess it's possible Te'o made that up so that people wouldn't think he was a weirdo for being in love with a girl he only knew online. That would be a somewhat innocent explanation. But this dude was the second-best football player in the nation (according to the Heisman results, anyway) and possibly a top-ten pick in the NFL draft. Why in the world would he need to carry out with some girl on the internet? This isn't the kind of fella that can't meet/talk to a woman in real life. It's all very odd.

Pretty much, he is either an incredibly gullible, sheltered, retard who made up actually meeting her among other things to cover up his embarrassing online love thing. Or, much more likely, he was in on it. The biggest thing is, if he met her, he would of known the pics of her on her profiles weren't her. The only mistake was taking a picture of an actual person, or having a pic of her at all. No one was questioning the story, which should have been done by reporters right away and they are very partially to blame for this. It's definitely one of the most bizarre stories I have ever seen, and it's on such a big scale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Me_2006 14 Posted January 17, 2013 Maybe Notre Dame is covering because it was their idea to begin with? Maybe it was all a Heisman hype hoax? We'll never know the full truth because it's all too embarrassing for SOMEONE somewhere along the line. There's no good outcome here for anyone involved and after the hype train of phony bullshit, there's no one I'd rather see this happen to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TimmySmith 2,783 Posted January 17, 2013 Everything points to Te'o having to brain power of a chinchilla. I'd say it's also obvious that ND knew about it and did everything they could to keep it out of the limelight during the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
