PR spin breh

Te'o and Ronaiah's PR are doing work

Creating all of these lies like a spider web so it's impossible for people to believe anything.

I have a question about the girl whose picture was used as the face of Lennay.

How did she never see her own picture on tv?

I get that maybe she didn't watch college football but this story and her picture was on just about every big news network including espn and ABC, NBC, and CBS.

If we give her the benefit of the doubt and say ok she didn't see her own picture on tv. Are we to believe she didn't have any of her friends and/or family members that saw her picture on tv or magazines?

Very strange that a college girl could be cut off from the world when her photo is going viral

That's cuz it aint him. Seriously though, any person who believes that was his voice is a fricking moron.

Bingo. The voice on the tapes is most definitely a woman. Theres no way a man can manipulate his voice to sound that much like a woman. Listen to Roniah talk, his voice has bass to it. I don't buy any of this. I feel certain that Manti and Roniah knew each other very well and then cooked all this shite up together.


What I think is that we are all being Catfished, or a better way to put it is scammed, hoodwinked into believing this story. The only thing that is true about this story is Te'o's play on the football field.

In all honesty I am a huge college foothill fan and my tv is on espn most of the day and I never knew what she looked like or saw pictures. Then again I dislike notre damne and don't pay any attention to things said about them during the season

I can understand that. Especially for a young college chick.

But if your picture was on college game day, good morning America, the today show, etc etc dont you think somebody you knew would see it?

Somebody that knows you in some capacity would see your face all over national tv

Watch these two videos

Voicemail from "Lennay"

Girl who was picture used, but says was not involved

SAME frickEN VOICE


I was really skeptical, but damn... they do sound like the same person.

It's definitely a lot more believable than Tuiasosopo.

Same here. Never saw a picture of her, nor did I care. Then again, I don't care about sob/emotional stories as they relate to sports. I just don't care. I'm pretty surprised people have been so attached to this story. Seems like a waste of time.

From the deapspin article:

quote:

Dr. Phil set up a scenario for Ronaiah to perform the Lennay character from the Tuiasosopo home on a clean phone with a producer serving as witness. Here's that video




quote:

That recording was sent to voice analysts, one of whom concluded Tuiasosopo was "a true talent" who had abilities the analyst had never seen before. All three experts concluded the voice matched those from the voicemails.

Raise your hand if you now think Tui carried on for hours and hours and hours as this girl, and Te'o Is just a really stupid douche.

:raises hand:

Dude nailed that voice.

He did nail the voice. Still don't believe Teo's never figured it out though. It really has played out like a 2 week long Catfish episode. Now Tui has successfully changed the entire story and he'll probably be doing child molestation PSAs in a couple weeks.

Teo got duped early on, he did figure it out but then just let it ride, embellished it and lied to the media.

This has always been the theory that made the most sense to me.

Tui = weirdo
Teo= dumbass liar.
