Someone should've verified something 6 weeks ago. ;)


I'm no private eye, but it doesn't seem like it would be that hard to find out , at least, whose phone he was calling. Perhaps that closet door is creeping open. ;)

I was thinking Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side".
That stuff's before my time, so I'll submit "Dude Look Like a Lady" by Aerosmith for Tuiasosopo and Vermillion Part 2 by Slipknot for Manti.

In fact, listening to Vermillion pt 2 with the context of this story in mind is actually pretty creepy and unbelievably accurate, especially in the end of the song!

Surely as much money is being spent on rehabbing his image you would think the the PR folks could at least splurge for a call girl to stroll around in public with him.

I mean come one if you are dealing with a PR nightmare don't you try to eliminate the obvious first?

Instead of listening to all these image consultants maybe he needs to be taking his advice from AJ.

If I said... 'Book em Danno'... Who would you arrest?
Te'o, or His Boyfriend/Dead Girlfriend', which ever it is?
Or would we lead ND away in cuffs for complicity?
Does ND stand for "NO DAME"?

The only thing missing in this sordid tale is Te'o having an encounter with Jerry Sandusky at PSU.
(Makes you wonder if Te'o took an official visit to PSU ?)

I think this was in poor taste. Just my opinion. A cruel hoax and the sexual abuse of children are in no way related.

I thought it was common knowledge that until you can irrefutably confirm someone online is a girl then they are actually a g.i.r.l(Guy In Real Life)

And now that bastion of idiocy is going to get involved, and no, I don't mean Bobby Lowder.

Dr. Phil has officially landed the first exclusive interview with alleged fake-girlfriend hoax schemer Ronaiah Tuiasosopo. TMZ Sports reported that Dr. Phil and Tuiasosopo sat together for several hours in L.A. on Thursday, where they discussed Manti Te’o's interview with Katie Couric

It could very well be that Te'o is totally socially inept which is hard to imagine with a bunch of co-eds around who are willing to go out with ANY ND football player. Possibly he is gay (which is much more acceptable nowadays) and doesn't want to screw up a possible career in the NFL. There are gay players in the NFL but they will never admit it until after their playing days are over.

CBS Sports had a link with Te'o's likeness on a PETA billboard promoting fake chicken recipes . I deleted the link as some of the many comments were a little too risque' . Always read the comment section before posting a link . Lesson learned !
