Manti Te’o’s Dead Girlfriend, The Most Heartbreaking And Inspirational Story, a hoax?

I think a lot of people care, you do not go on national TV and proclaim your girlfriend died when you do not even have a girlfriend, that is really sick! People started donatting money to charities because of what he said, I am sure they care. Like I said, I am a huge ND fan like you, but get off your high horse and stop sticking up for this kid. He is a despicable human if he was involved any way at all. Even if he is dumb as a box of rocks and got fooled, you do not go on national TV and look for sympathy when he knows it was just a friendship over phone/computer. He never met the girl and he played it up on TV that it was a serious relationship, so he is guilty.

I'm not a fan of him and I'm not sticking up for him. I think he is overrated and the guy may have a great NFL career but I doubt it. The only thing that I'm saying is that people are blowing this crap way out of proportion. The only people who are upset about this is the people who fell for it and everyone else just thinks it's funny. Every year in every game especially in the bowl games and national title people are always looking for the next feel good story and we always hear about this player is a genius in the classroom and this player is a saint who helps the poor and gives to charity and this player beat all the odds and beat a disease and died and came back 3 times and got his body cut in half but he overcame it all and made it to this game! I take it all with a grain of salt because I think about 85 to 90% of it is BS!!!
I also think it is BS that people think that this got the man up for the heisman. Like I said, if the dude did plan all of this then it is weird but he committed no crime that I know of but I could be wrong. At the end of the day if you look at all the crazy and stupid things athlete's have done in every sport in the last decade then this don't even make my top 10 list.
