Is ESPN going to have their reckoning for holding onto this for 10 days until after their broadcast of the NC game?


I would say they should, although whoever challenges them on that won't get a ton of exposure, ESPN being the Evil Empire and all...

Has anyone from ESPN confirmed that they knew of the story, or mentioned why they didn't release it?

Deadspin author just said that they talked to ALL the people that Notre Dame should have talked to, and they never talked to Notre Dame.

But no one from ESPN correct? Did those sources speculate as to why ESPN didn't release anything?

Dan Patrick said he knows that someone from ESPN contacted Deadspin and told them where to look to unravel this once the source knew that ESPN was gonna sit on it

ETA: this was said as soon as he came on air not during the interview with deadspin author Timothy Burke

BOOM

There have been couple tweets posted in this thread from sports journalists saying they've confirmed ESPN knew before the game.



CAN SOMEONE MAKE A SCRAPBOOK OF ALL THE TEO SCREENSHOTS, TWITTER POSTS, INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPTS, FUNNY PICS, ETC. IN THIS THREAD?????

Tim Burke and Jack Dickey are going to end up being the Woodward and Bernstein of sports journalism. They're reporting on this is incredible.

Just to show how much of a sham the Heisman is:

Teddy Greenstein, Chicago Tribune, said he voted for Manti because of the plight that he had with his girlfriend and grandma.

Said he would now vote for Johnny, even if Manti was tricked.




WOW.

Basically said the AD was full of shite with their internal investigation etc bc everyone deadspin talked to is who ND should have and they didn't contact any of the sources

I wish ESPN would have the balls to have Tim on The Herd.


He would blow this story up if more people would hear what he just said.

HEYOOOOOOO

It's obvious ESPN didn't want to break the story and ruin the BCS title. Although, I feel ratings would have skyrocketed.

I mean could Notre Dame's performance really have gotten any worse even with this huge story going on?

I wonder how the big guy slept last night?

I hope Te'o's life is a living hell right now. Either for his naivety/stupidity, or for his lying POS-ness.

While Greenberg is saying that there is NOOOO way the AD would come out uless they did extensive research and absolutely were certain Teo had no part. ESPN isn't reporting the facts of this story or asking the key questions at all.
