| Why is everyone making fun of Te'o? (Posted on 1/16/13 at 9:53 pm)
By all accounts HE was the one tricked in to thinking his girlfriend died the same week as his grandmother. I'm not a ND fan and never cared for Te'o, but if this story is true then I feel terrible for the guy. I don't understand all the jokes and finger pointing... am I missing something?

I would like you to read what you wrote 10 times, slowly and then ask any questions you have.

No, not by all accounts. Pretty much only by his self-interested, self-serving account.

After this whole thing, we're suddenly supposed to believe his side of the story?

If it's true and he had a girlfriend for 3 years that he actually never saw even after her having a bad car wreck and dying of leukemia.....then he is at the very least weird.

That Deadspin article is saying alot more than the ND AD that had an "independent investigation" done. Don;t understand why the AD didn't go into detail to try and help...Te'o has sum explaining to do!!!
