No he didn't

He got played.
just so happen to be in a VERY public setting. Give me a fricking break.

Over. Reaction. A silly one at that. I couldn't help but laugh at the ridiculous attention that whole story turned out to be.

I'll even add....

I think, as long as I've been alive and watching sports, that whole Te'o story was the biggest overreaction in sports history. Ever. I've never seen something so insignificant warrant so much attention.

Not an overreaction at all. That "story" netted him SEVEN College Football postseason awards in which far more deserving players were denied:

Butkus - Jarvis Jones
Bednarik - Jadeveon Clowney/Jarvis Jones/Damontre Moore
Lombardi - Jadeveon Clowney/Damontre Moore
Maxwell - Johnny Manziel
Lott - Jadeveon Clowney/Jarvis Jones/Damontre Moore
Bednarik - Jadeveon Clowney/Jarvis Jones
Walter Camp - Johnny Manziel

You mean to tell me the stud player on a high profile football team resorted to an online relationship? No thanks. Kid has some issues if that's the case. Plus his skill set isn't that good.

What kind of attention should the story have received? All freaking season we heard about the fricking heart wrenching story of Teo losing his GF.

How should it have been covered? ESPN: "You know that story of Manti Teo's dead girlfriend that we talked about ALL SEASON? Well, none of it was true. Now, in WNBA news........"

Had they not pimped this kid and the story of the girl's death constantly from day one, then the fact that she never existed wouldn't have been a story at all.
