    Wait...what? I'm sorry but if I'm having multiple fantasies about taking it in the ass and swallowing cock...I'm a raging faggot and probably moving out of the country. Straight people don't just think about gay sex. If they do they arnt straight.

    B

    Nonsense. The bandwidth the ESPN has and you're tellin me that they didn't have an idea that they should check into The story? If its sports related, they want to have ALL the facts and be first to report it. Now all the sudden they don't just don't know anything on what will end up being a top 3 sports story of the year?

    This thing smelled and nobody looked into it. My guess is they loved all over this kid, found out it was ALL false, looked in the eye of the Nat Champ game and decided not to roll with it bc they'd look foolish.

    My guess is they knew about it when ND knew and they didn't go with it bc of their ego.

    Either way, this kid will be asked more absurd questions than Cam Newton was asked from NFL scouts.

    Congratulations to @uilanirae on her review today!! I'm so proud of you!

    ^ The fake Kekua sister in the TMZ story

    Nov. 4: Te'o tweets with Kekua's "sister." As detailed in the Deadspin article, in early November someone posing as Kekua's sister "popped up on Twitter under the name @uilanirae."On Nov. 4, Te'o tweeted, "Shout out to Ms. @uilanirae she's new to twitter and really needs some new followers! One of the realist people I know."
    The Deadspin article notes that Te'o "also wished (@uilanirae) a happy Thanksgiving on Nov. 22," and that he deleted his tweets after her account was revealed as a fraud.

    I think it's actually perfectly rational for them to have killed her off: they had to realize that they couldn't keep it going forever without people getting suspicious why she wasn't at awards shows, or anything. So one death happen, and they decide that why not just see if you can bury one fake tragedy in one real one.

    Have I missed anything this morning about the other polynesian who made the twitter account? Because I'm still going with the those two are gay lovers theory. And I have no idea how he could possibly be explained by the "irrationally elaborate hoax that requires you to reaaallllyyyy love Notre Dame to believe!"

    I mean, that's fair, but I just don't think you can compare a private media company withholding information on a story they're still putting together to a public institution of higher learning withholding credible information from the horse's mouth. :twocents:

    Did we ever find out what the deal with that Twitter is? Are the people behind the troll running it again? Someone said it was created yesterday, which means anyone could have made that profile after the story broke yesterday.

    Who knows? That's a good question. Maybe he wanted the extra sympathy. We know for sure that he lied/embellished, so he was definitely milking it at least a degree.

    It's tough to comprehend why he'd kill her off, but it's MUCH tougher to comprehend why he'd fall in love with her via internet and then never visit her during her cancer treatment or go to the funeral. Sorry, but "she wished it" does not cover never visiting your girlfriend and "love of your life" who has leukemia. Only a sociopath would just play football instead, her wishes be damned.

    Take your pick: either he made one highly irrational choice (killing her off) or several dozen (never meeting her or visiting her whilst dying off leukemia, despite being the love of his life).

    First one is easier to swallow for me, but there's no highly rational explanation for Manti Te'o's actions no matter what truly happened. He's either a potato or a sociopath or somewhere inbetween.
