I'd love to see some phone records.

People that donated money based on this fraud could sue and would be able to subpoena records.

What if Notre Dame's PR Marketing staff told Te'o to fake the story so he'd be a mainstream story in sports?

Does this Thamel person have a Twitter? I'd love to know how a professional journalist could explain this "reporting".

I'm told Notre Dame will have an official comment on the Deadspin Manti Te'o story shortly.

This. shite. Is. Incredible.



Seems realistic

quote:

"My bet is that deadspin just outed a gay guy to his Mormon family. Nice going, guys!"

"That was my initial thought too. He was dating a guy who pretends to be a girl online, and when people want to starting meeting "her" he freaks out and makes up a story about her dying without thinking how people will react. That's the only explanation I can come up with that doesn't involve Te'o being a terrible, terrible person."

So his story was manufactured. This isn't new.

IE Justin Bieber, Obama as president.
