2006 Redzone mock Draftee's- 1(st) Daniel Bard(redsox), 1(st sup)( Jordan Walden (Angels), 2(nd) rd.- Zach Britton(Orioles), 3(rd) Blair Erickson(Cardinals), 3(rd) Tim Norton( Yankees),(cuz its a Tim Hortons thing
Pain heals. Chicks dig scars. Glory... lasts forever.
I heard there weren't even any skidmarks, but someone was heard saying "wow, that was some speedbump."
"Rounding 3rd and heading for home, good night everybody"
He obviously isn't telling the truth. Since he didn't tell the truth in the first place, now he has to keep making stuff up. Now it won't die. Classic PR blunder. ND must be using the same PR firm that handled the priest abuse scandal--deny, deny, deny. Te'o was quoted "Whatever they said, I didn't do it!" Pathetic.
"Rounding 3rd and heading for home, good night everybody"
"I know a lot about the law and various other lawyerings."
Hitters who avoid outs are the funnest.
What word? Which story?
Prior to the denial, the story included face to face contact, including meeting at a real football game, real trips to Hawaii (which his dad claimed, so he's in on it too). Now it was a long distance internet only hoax, never actually met her, and now ND is getting pulled into a web of lies. Seriously, this one isn't even hard.
The motive is fame and seeking recognition, doing whatever it takes to win the Heisman and make it to the NC game.
"Rounding 3rd and heading for home, good night everybody"
Take a lie detector test Te'o and prove to all the skeptics that you were fooled (and dumb). Make sure the ones that administer the test are a non-biased outfit (not ND grads).
Sounds simple to me. But I think we all know that will never happen. Just like Lance and Pete not doing the same (prior to admitting THE TRUTH).
I was thinking about this the other day. Lets assume that what Manti is saying is true, that he was a victim of a hoax. The domino's have to fall in such a manner that they become unbelievable.
According to Manti they met after the ND Stanford game something to do with "soulful eyes." If you think about it logistically, they would need to place the girl in the exact right position in the stadium, with the exact right timing to catch Manti's attention. Then they would have to exchange phone numbers and start a relationship. Anyone who has ever done that with a girl in college knows the difficulties involved. The "hoaxers" would have had the greatest plant in all of "hoax" history.
Here is the thing I can't wrap my head around. My 85 year old grandma knows little to nothing about technology but can facetime. My in-laws frequently use skype, they used skype 3 years ago to communicate with my sister-in-law who was adopting a child in China. Skype is $20 for a web cam and then free after that. Why in the world would you carry on a long distance relationship and not use the technology at your fingertips to communicate while viewing each other?
Then you his father reporting that the two met in Hawaii, but Manti saying he lied to his father because of embarrassment. First of all if the love of your life is flying into Hawaii wouldn't you pick her up at the airport? Wouldn't you be pissed if she traveled to Hawaii and didn't see you? Wouldn't that raise an alarm?
If Manti's story is true then in the Webster Dictionary his name should be listed as the definition of gullible.
