Col' busted!
ok, your grandmother dies. And then your girlfriend that never existed, gets into a car accident and then gets leukemia and then dies? Them Mormons go overboard when it comes to fantasies (like winning the presidency).

Number ONE story just minutes ago on ESPN PTI
reported that now Deadspin pointing finger at Notre Dame , and Notre Dame is now pointing its finger at Manti TE'O and TE'O cant find anyone to point his finger at
Dude is basically a fucking Liar , worse then Liar Alzado

this site has become a meeting place for all these conspiracy theorist wackjobs
did you read the article? This was on deadspin, and ESPN is now involved...
This is not some "conspiracy"...
BTW

pro sports has hit a new low. T'eo looks like a saint compared to Lance Armstrong now

I deleted my post. I couldn't believe T'eo would go so low and fake this. Most unbelievable story I've ever heard in sports. I'm stunned

I'm so happy his girl didn't die. It's a miracle.

his grandmother dying, ok. That was real, but then when you go and make up a girlfriend, use someone else's pic, make up where she went to school, make up the car accident, and make up the leukemia, then make up the death. And make up tweets and all, I begin to think that you really are mentally not all there. Lying like this---one big lie to cover up the other big lie, is beyond comprehension.
And the fact that ESPN never checked it out, also shows something about Sports Journalism in this day and age of hype.

Still think Lance is worse.

"That's for both of you."
It's done. He admits it right there.

he just released a statement
Que Booty and Grant E-Relationship
Te'o issued a statement Tuesday afternoon:
"This is incredibly embarrassing to talk about, but over an extended period of time, I developed an emotional relationship with a woman I met online. We maintained what I thought to be an authentic relationship by communicating frequently online and on the phone, and I grew to care deeply about her.
"To realize that I was the victim of what was apparently someone's sick joke and constant lies was, and is, painful and humiliating.
"It further pains me that the grief I felt and the sympathies expressed to me at the time of my grandmother's death in September were in any way deepened by what I believed to be another significant loss in my life.
"I am enormously grateful for the support of my family, friends and Notre Dame fans throughout this year. To think that I shared with them my happiness about my relationship and details that I thought to be true about her just makes me sick. I hope that people can understand how trying and confusing this whole experience has been.
"In retrospect, I obviously should have been much more cautious. If anything good comes of this, I hope it is that others will be far more guarded when they engage with people online than I was.
"Fortunately, I have many wonderful things in my life, and I'm looking forward to putting this painful experience behind me as I focus on preparing for the NFL Draft."

Wait, It isn't actually Tao's fault. They just said on ESPN, that Tao was in (what he thought) was an online relationship. It turned out to be a hoax to even Tao. I feel bad for that guy now. Maybe Booty and Grant can give him some advice. Make sure that the bitch is real guys. :-\

naw, he had apparently met and talked to her.
ESPN is trying to backtrack. Trying to take the egg off their faces for being scooped and duped.

I don't get it then. Either she didn't exist, and he was duped, or she did exist and Tao is dumb as fuck. Tao will never play in the NFL if he is proved to have known about this.

NO , because he said in other interviews that he met this woman in Hawaii , met her in person

I don't get it then. Either she didn't exist, and he was duped, or she did exist and Tao is dumb as fuck. Tao will never play in the NFL if he is proved to have known about this.
and that's why he came out with this prepared statement, it was prepared in a manner so that he looks like a "victim", due to his own naïveté.
But, I ain't buying it, too many holes. And if this chick died, and he was sooo invested in her emotionally, did he go to a funeral?
And why wouldn't he have gone to Stanford for some "quality time"?
A dude nowadays, especially his age, is gonna be hip to the game, unless he's some naive religious nut who never had a girlfriend.

if any football star isn't getting girls, it's mantei
listen to hm talk, the dude is weird as hell and seems a little autistic to me, even has a strange look in his eyes
notre dame is a small school with a lot of very smart girls that might not be impressed by a guy just by being good at football

She never would have died if she had a gun.

Are we saying that Alabama kidnapped Tao's girlfriend and grandmother and held them hostage so Alabama would win the National Championship? Is that what we are saying?
-
She never would have died if she had a gun.
lol...asshole

guys probably a fagggot
tried to cover up his cock habits by telling his teamates he has a girlfriend thats why he turns down the pusssy
-
Why don't we call it what it is? If a star football player has to fake having a girlfriend, then 99.9% of the time that player is GAY. Like Tim Tebow, if it walks like a duck.

yes, but there are always groupies. No matter where. Especially at schools with big nationally acclaimed football/basketball programs.
Hell, even the Naval Academy football players have groupies.
But, yeah, in that interview he had that weird vibe, weirder than Ricky Williams.

i don't know how far groupies go when "throwing themselves" at athletes, but he strikes me as the type of guy that wouldn't get laid unless the girl ripped his clothes off and forced his penis inside of her
just seems incredibly awkward

So his online girlfriend died ..... hahaha is this Catfish ?

So his online girlfriend that he met, got into a car accident and then got leukemia, died ..... hahaha is this a dead Catfish ?

Dr. Phil did a story on Catfishing...
Three seemingly intelligent, attractive women who got emotionally wrapped up in a fantasy man
One chick never really dated.

Probably Alex23 running the "Lennay Kukua" gimmick.

On ESPN, the fullback from Arizona said he met the chick, that she does exist, but this was a year before Manti started e dating her. I don't know what to believe. ???

This is a comment made on Deadspin:
Here's my theory- he's gay. Raised in a strict religious household he was never comfortable with it. He switched to Notre Dame, leaving USC, because he wanted to get away from his boyfriend in California, the guy in on the hoax.
He thought he could stay away and maybe become straight again by leaving that life behind him. But he met back up with him after the Stanford game and decided he couldn't fight it anymore. They realized they couldn't keep their relationship hidden so made it in the open, but pretended to be a girl.
Things happened, and stuff got out, they came up with a plan to kill off the fake persona since he started to get more media scrutiny. He hoped that would be the end of it, but his team started piling up wins, and he got national attention. So he lied to his parents to get them to go along with his story. Now its blown up in his face.
Just a theory. Either way pretty amazing story.

i'm watching the video.. dude is either forest gump-level of naive....
or he's a freakin psycopath lol...

If he was raised Mormon, I'm thinking it could be this. Some of the ones I went to school with had that deer in the headlights look when you explained the "ways of the world". Hope this affects his draft status and the Ravens can grab his faggoty ass. ;D

I'm listening to "Mike and Mike in the morning", and they are talking about how this dude got "catfished" or whatever it's called, and they are talking Bout how much has to go into something like this from the person who is actually pulling the strings, the sheer deception involved. I think now it may be a getbigger, possibly Alex23, only someone from this site would put in the effort with this much fortitude to "out" someone. It's actually funny how they are talking about it, and how mean and pathetic it is that someone would do this stuff, being a gimmick. ;D
-
Deadspin showed a story from 3 years ago about Teo talking about meeting her and love at first sight. Now he is claiming it was all online. Dude is a total liar.

Billions of people delude themselves everyday, its called Religion. Whats the difference?

The media is making a big deal out of this because they were duped and are embarrassed. They should know to do their homework before believing a story told by a college kid.
-
Why would anyone believe it in the first place? The Public is so gullible, especially when it comes to sports. They want a fantastic little story to go with the homoerotic display so they can feel complete. A soap opera for grown men deep in the closet.
-
Part of American sports, especially in football is the "feel good story" and the inclusion of religion. There are so many christian undertones to football broadcasts it is sickening.

I think a lot of people get their religion through sports. I watched the video of this Teo character which can be found at the first link posted. The Coach was dedicating a football in the locker room to him and standing there amongst them, was a priest dressed in that stupid priest outfit with the collar with a grin on his sick face.
Sports are ridiculous.

Wait a second
What's the bottomline here?
Did his online girlfriend die and the result was that he played the best game of his life?
Or did he mess up a game due to sorrow?
Was this online girlfriend really dead or not?
Did he ever meet her?
Is his grief real or false? What is the point of everything?
What exactly is the problem?

It all seems to be tracking back to this guy
Ronaiah Tuiasosopo
Might be a friend/family friend or relative in some way of ManTe , looks like Ronaiah was behind creating all the Twitter/Facebook accounts of the Girlfriend, the Girlfriends Sister and family members.
Seem ManTe probably told him to help him out create this Great Heavy Heart Legacy and he would compensate him after he got paid in the pros

Yep... we're hearing more nad more old interviews where Manteo is saying things went on for THREE years... Where he spoke to her every night for 4 straight months as she died... he never attended any funerals or hospital after car wreck...
It's looking more and more like he wanted an emotional story to sell to Heisman voters so he could win it and go earlier in the draft. And his buddy made all the accounts.
And he's looking like worse shit by having his new agent release the statement about how naive he was. He's shady. His dad claimed he brought her home for vacation. It's a load of crap. Hearing all the new items and interviews... NO WAY he was duped. He made it up for publicity and hte Heisman.

Its really the same thing religious people do with their "Testimony" and "supernatural experiences". They just repeat it over and over, the legend grows and at some point they identify with it and don`t really separate the fiction from the reality. The social pressure is always there to not give up the game and it continues as long as necessary until it cements.
-
they have 2 radio interviews.... he said he flew her into hawaii TWICE.
There is no longer a chance he was duped. He lied about it. He is a liar, and very possibly a psycopath.
And the cover-up is just going to make him look more and more like shit. I can just see the tearful press conference now. He'll keep on blaming other things, I bet. "I didn't have time for a relationship, I was too busy playing football and doing homework, so I made her up to fit in. I'm just a victim of today's social standards."
I think the radio interviews (Breaking on colin cowherd on espn just now) are going to sink him. He said he flew her in twice. She's not real, he knew it, and he perpetuated that lie months ago on purpose. He wanted the Heisman.

Not much different than any religious person really. Anyways, how does this affect what he does playing football? Its just a goddamned game? Who cares if he lies about anything? What does it matter?
-
He's gonna be one of the first to come out as gay in the NFL...Then this story will make much more sense...He'll probably go on Oprah to tell the story...
-
So people are outraged because he made this all up, deluded himself and caused everyone else to believe it as well? Sounds like the story of Jesus to me.
-
Do people want a story or do they just want to watch a game or both? ???
-
Will he be on Oprahs show next?
-
funny how ESPN is saying they had the story first but didnt want to run with it because they didnt have all the facts just yet ::) ::)
wouldnt put it past me if ESPN suggested mante to make that shit up to up ND view time on Sports Center

You attack religion a lot. You are very insecure about something. Doubts must be creeping into that little brain of yours. Are there things?
-
What's important is that he scored yes?
Big difference if he dedicated his goals to Satan, ALex Jones, a dead dog, Piers Morgan or Arnold
It's the points that count.

The only doubt I have is a religious persons intelligence. The moment they let that detail fly its as if they are waving a banner of ignorance over their heads with the words, "I am a moron" on their flag.

That is what I don`t understand. There are a lot of morons already in the NFL who believe and have made a whole lot of nonsense things that have no basis in reality. Many have lucrative endorsement deals and contracts. Some have even committed acts of murder and such vile acts against people and animals alike, yet they are embraced with welcome arms because they can score a point.
What makes this and different? In some respects its less harmful and egregious than what others have done. I don`t even watch football and think this is silly.

Yep... we're hearing more nad more old interviews where Manteo is saying things went on for THREE years... Where he spoke to her every night for 4 straight months as she died... he never attended any funerals or hospital after car wreck...
It's looking more and more like he wanted an emotional story to sell to Heisman voters so he could win it and go earlier in the draft. And his buddy made all the accounts.
And he's looking like worse shit by having his new agent release the statement about how naive he was. He's shady. His dad claimed he brought her home for vacation. It's a load of crap. Hearing all the new items and interviews... NO WAY he was duped. He made it up for publicity and hte Heisman.
So, basically him being all nice, and talking to kids on campus, helping out handicapped kids, and being a Good Samaritan, basically was a way of enhancing his "Good Mormon" image?

Americans love the story. That's why American Idol is such a success. it is about 10% of the actual singing and 90% of the feel good story

I fell for a similar scam about 16-17 years ago, back in the AOL days.
I was a hard-working young sailor, tired of all the little ho-bags running around Norfolk and surrounding areas. There was a magical beep one day, an IM - instant message - that would forever change my life.
Her name was Katelyn and she said she was a teacher. I don't know how she found me, but didn't care. I also didn't care that she was divorced and had a kid. Her pictures were cute. Even had pics of herself in a classroom. At least, she said it was her.
During long hours on duty in the shipyards, we'd talk by online message and occasionally by phone. She mailed gifts and cards to me. She loved hockey and we were fans of rival minor-league teams. One of the places we were to meet up was at a bar in Richmond that was a popular post-game spot for the players and groupies. Of course it never happened.
To make a long story short, after the second meet-up failed, I came to the realization it was a hoax, but continued to milk it for the free presents a bit longer, while I went back to banging the stupid coeds and whores in southeastern VA. The incident was eventually forgotten.
Until now.

If your friend has never met his girlfriend of one year...
...That girlfriend is: not real.
If your friend's description of his girlfriend never advances beyond a guy's vague idea of what a young human female might be like ("pretty," "likes white roses," "is my girlfriend")...
...That girlfriend is: not real.
If your friend's girlfriend "just loves giving blowjobs; if anything, her love of giving blowjobs has *increased* since we've been together"...
...That girlfriend is: not real.
If your friend's girlfriend has no birthday, place of birth, family, or friends...
...That girlfriend is: not real.
If your friend's girlfriend lives through a horrific car crash that leaves her "on the brink of death" and your friend doesn't carve out a day to visit her...
...That girlfriend is: not real.
If your friend places a lot of emphasis on the fact that his girlfriend of one year exists, is as real as a wish, is as real as love...
...That girl friend is: not real.
If your friend's girlfriend dies, but, prior to her death, gives your friend a pass on attending the funeral on the off chance he's got shit to do that day and really, some white roses and a couple interceptions is more than enough, thanks...
...That girlfriend is: not real.
If your friend's girlfriend gave your friend her phone number at a party...
...That girlfriend is: not real or it is 1996.
And once more, for clarity: if your friend has never met his girlfriend of one year...
...That girlfriend is: Definitely just not real.

I had a REAL girlfriend that only wanted to suck cock. Never have sex. I would stop by after football practice, talk for about 10 minutes and she'd blow me and I'd leave. This went on for about 1 year and she moved.

Manti Te'o Gay? Girlfriend Hoax Leads To Speculation On Sexuality Of Notre Dame Star
The bombshell exposed Wednesday by Deadspin reporters rocked the sporting world with revelations of an elaborate hoax involving Notre Dame star linebacker Manti Te'o and the tragic passing of his girlfriend, Lennay Kekua. As Deadspin revealed, she never existed. In the aftermath, Te'o has claimed he was the victim of a hoax, but the bizarre tale has led some to wonder if Te'o was attempting to hide a different secret--his sexuality.
On The LaVar Arrington Show, Arrington, a former NFL player, and co-host Chad Dukes referenced the possibility of Te'o being closeted as they tried to figure out what possible motivation could have led him to participate in or fall for such a hoax.
"Let's hypothesize, he's gay," said Dukes. "He is a star football, college football player, with beautiful chicks surrounding him, propositioning him all the time with all kinds of media asking him 'Are you dating chicks? Do you have a girlfriend?' all the time."
Arrington responded, "Is that the only sensible way of looking at this?"
"If he's in on it, I can't.. I don't.. maybe there is other reasons but it makes a lot of sense," answered Dukes.

Ronaiah Tuiasosopo has yet to speak out about it, he shut down all his social networks (twitter, instagram and facebook) , but this father Titus Tuiasosopo released this statement today,
"There are not enough words in the dictionary to describe the overwhelming love & support me & my Aiga have received today. Feels like I've been drinking from a fire hydrant. lol. Your texts, calls, emails, prayers & messages are received with a sincerely humble heart. I know so much has been splattered all over the media about my son & my family. I also know that many who were born in a manger in Bethlehem & continue to walk on water will undoubtedly express their opinions. Those of you who know us the best still love us the most. It my hope & prayer that we allow the truth to take its course, wherever that may lead. My heart goes out to Manti & the Te'o Aiga. Please allow this young man to pursue his dream without judgement. He's an amazing role model for our youth and Samoan community. I love U all from the bottom of my heart."

Q: SO TE'O NEVER SAW LENNAY KEKUA IN THE FLESH?
A: That's right. They had planned to meet up one time in San Diego during a long layover he had on his way home to Hawaii. That never happened because on April 28, Te'o says he was told, she got into a serious car accident. Te'o said he was told the accident put Kekua into a coma, and when she came out her recovery from serious injuries drew them closer. He started talking to a woman portraying Kekua every day.
He said before he returned from Hawaii to South Bend for preseason practice he had planned to meet up with her on California, but he had to cancel this time to attend a family reunion in Utah.
Te'o claims they tried to make video phone calls using Skype and FaceTime, but he said he could never see her face. She would say she could see him and tease him about being able to use the technology correctly.

Ronaiah Tuiasosopo had intense feelings for Manti Te'o ... feelings that developed over time that he channeled through a female persona, but the emotions -- like the scam -- were rooted in fantasy.
Sources very close to Ronaiah tell TMZ ... he struggled for years trying to adapt to the expectations of his culture, his religion and his family. Ronaiah, we're told, never had a serious physical relationship with anyone and created a female persona online as a way to vent his feelings.
We're told Ronaiah used the female persona in many encounters, but so far there's no evidence he became intensely emotionally attached to anyone -- until Manti. We've confirmed when Ronaiah spoke with Manti as "Lennay Kekua" he used his own voice.
Indeed ... Ronaiah's feelings became so intense, he blew his cover on December 6 because it was hard to walk away. He never intended to reveal Manti was actually talking to a man ... he just wanted to reconnect with Manti, but still as a woman.
Our sources say Ronaiah has buried his feelings to the point he has little emotion about anything. We're told even the scandal has not produced intense emotions.
We're told, Ronaiah shut down emotionally at a very young age. He lived his life through fantasy.

Sounds pretty gay.
No homo
DOC
Lift, fuck, make money

Yeah, I think he doesn't want to hurt his draft status$, legacy at ND, reputation, etc.
Couric asked him "are you gay" and his responses was "No, far from it. FARRRRR from it!!"
Sorry, but any stud athlete who spends age 18 to 22 talking a guy, thinking it's a girl, never having sex or meeting her, claiming he was faithful... Then trying to claim "FARRRRRR from it" as his hetero proof?
It's 2013. It's really not big deal to be gay. Just come out of the closet, seriously, nobody will care in 5 minutes. Yes, he'll get mocked as "Man-Guy Gay'O" for a few weeks. heck, he might get drafted EARLIER by a progressive-thinking GM.
I'm betting it'll come out during the interview process. Dude has no integrity.. he admits lies now to everything he's been caught on. It'll be a slow leak of "I'm sorry, I also lied about this or that..."
he should just come out and say "I'm gay, I was embarassed, it didn't exactly fit in at a place like ND and with my upbringing".

He doesn't want to come out before he signs...Many teams would pass on him if he came out. They wouldn't want the circus that would come from the first openly gay man playing in the NFL. Look at the circus Tim Tebow creates. Another guy who won't come out and say he's gay. I predict Taylor Swift(paid Hollywood beard) will be linked to Teo pretty soon.

Did they want the opposite team to win or something?

You're gay so you invent a fake girlfriend for the media?
Every gay guy I know has loads of female friends that often accompany them to functions where people don't know they are gay.
Guy is just a dipshit.

LMFAO!!! this Fat FAGGGGGOT said the voices were not woman but him, and that he was romantically in love with Manta teo

Pro Football Talk:
But one brief exchange within the interview has people talking: Couric asked Te’o, “Are you gay?”
Te’o, who up to that point had calmly answered questions suggesting that he’s naive, stupid and a liar, grew emphatic as he insisted that he is heterosexual.
“No, far from it. Far from it,” Te’o said.
The emphasis Te’o placed on being “far from” gay was striking. At other times in the interview, Couric grilled Te’o about being “the most naive person on the planet” involved in a “web of lies,” and Te’o didn’t flinch. But when Couric asked Te’o if he’s gay, Te’o took umbrage. Te’o seemed to be saying, “Katie, you can call me naive, call me stupid, call me a liar. But don’t dare call me gay.”
And that may say a lot about how a gay player would be treated in the National Football League. Although there have been encouraging stories recently about more accepting attitudes in NFL locker rooms, we may still be a long way off from a day when a football player could answer the question, “Are you gay?” with a simple, “Yes” and not fear being shunned by teammates, downgraded by coaches and heckled by fans.
The bad news is that Te’o seems to think that if you’re an aspiring professional football player, you’re better off being labeled naive and stupid than gay. The awful news is that he might be right.

Manti should just give it up, if he goes Pro, he can always scope out a new love in locker room on the Internet, like on eharmory, SamoanMeet.com

Manti Te’o has gotten questions about his dead girlfriend hoax everywhere he has turned in Indianapolis at the NFL Scouting Combine.
Now, it’s time for questions about Te’o on the field. His last game was a disaster against Alabama in the BCS National Championship Game and when Te’o stepped on the field this afternoon at Lucas Oil Stadium, he didn’t help himself.
The Notre Dame linebacker was stiff and slow in the 40-yard dash. His official time, according to the NFL, was 4.82 seconds. So, now questions can commence about Te’o’s ability to be more than a two-down linebacker in the NFL. His range, burst, explosiveness and athleticism are all fair game. He checked in at only 241 pounds, too, so it’s not like he was a big body putting up an unimpressive time.
Had Te’o been in the sub-4.7 range, he likely would have cemented his place in the first round. Now, there is more for teams to be concerned about.

He didn't bench, he's gay, he's slow, and he's undersized.
Arizona will take him or Matt Barkley with the 7th pick. ::)

He might be gay... but I don't think it's that big a deal in this day and age.
I think it's more likely he just lied to get national coverage and win the Heismann... which is pretty shitty, but hey...
Being slow, that's a problem but he is quick.
Being weak, well, he couldn't bench today because of a "shoulder stinger"...
-
he is gay, but he just ran a 4.8

You don't draft a guy in the first round if he has to come out on third down every series.
Unless you're Cleveland or the Jets.
-
For fucks sake man. So a 4.8 sucks but a 4.7 is first round material? Give me a break. There are a ton of fast NFL players that can't tackle for shit. Teo has a great instinct for the ball, probably because he is gay. But he is undersized and will need to load up on the GH to be a good pro. He only ot hype because he played for ND. If he played for Syracuse you wouldn't know who he was.

Yeah, not saying if it is right or wrong, but every team he is talking to are asking him if he is gay.
-
the way he got so small and slow during the period when most other players got bigger, strgoner and faster... ???
I almost wonder if he was allowed to use GH or whatever else at ND... and now that he's going to be tested and prodded, it's time to lay off the sauce for the draft interviews.
Additionally, his dad is morbidly obese. You have to assume at some point, he's going to get soft and fat. The only Q is when.
I think Teo is going to be a mess as a pro. Any guy who will completely trash the ND locked room over fake death of a fake GF (dude) he's been phone-sexing for years...

Jerry Rice ran 4.71 and Larry Fitzgerald ran 4.63.
How did they do in the NFL?
-
Manti is down 15 pounds in a month.
That's with all the preparation, nutritionists, trainers, etc. He's slow (in the bottom 1/3 of linebackers) and he isn't strong (refused to bench... down 15 pounds, that would have been a terrible bench also... we all know what happens to our bench press when we lose 15 pounds in 30 days.
He's off the sauce now.

Teo did not get drafted in the first round.
With all the kneepadding and slurping by Mel Kiper, Jr....
Turns out the kid is weak, slow, and average against NFL (Alabama) players.
And the NFL teams let him slide to the 2nd round.

Teo is a fag that no one wants.

Everyone was saying he would go to the the Vikings and they passed on his ass 3 times in the first round picks

I was surprised about this.... but then reading up, he did not perform very well at the Combine. Seems it was expected. Probably 2nd round then!
-
Mel Kiper, Jr on mike & Mike trying to explain why vikings didn't take him.
Kiper has been the biggers Teo cheerleader from minute #1. Even when all the other teams said "he's slow, not strong".
Plus, ya toss in the lying weirdness in order to get national exposure for a heisman, you know his character is shit. He knew she was fake and staged a locker room meltdown, trashed the place. Then lied to the nation over and over about her... He just loved the spotlight too much.
So maybe it's possible he's slow, he's soft, and he just keeps insulting everyone's intelligence about how he was 'fooled' into a long relationship with a girl he'd never met...
-
No one would respect Teo either if they did draft him. Players would look at him like a fag loser. He would get no respect.
-

The combine goes a long way.
Lost 20 pounds, didn't do a bench test, was slow.
Yeah... not going in the first round. Maybe he's not mentally ready, who knows. Still a little shocked he didn't get picked up in the latter half though.
-
size really doesn't matter unless you are a lineman or tight end......imho
many good linebackers weigh under 250......more important to have a nose for the ball......Doesn't matter what round Teo gets drafted in.....the bottom line is that he will have to perform on the field. 40 yard dash and bench press reps will have very little to do with his success.
he will be under the microscope and therefore needs to prove himself on the field.
my 2 cents.
-
Since Beano Cook is dead, Kiper has to be the Notre Dame dong slurper.
-
he is horrible bama outed him more than the guy who was his fake girl friend

he is horrible bama outed him more than the guy who was his fake girl friend
