Manti Te'o wanted to just hug his girlfriend, but she did an Eddie Lacy style spin move out of existence.

Manti Te'o wanted to just hug his girlfriend, but she did an Eddie Lacy style spin move out of existence. That's sorta like my FBook status from yesterday afternoon: Manti Te'o's ol' lady, much like his tackling against Alabama, was non-existent.

If he does end up being gay, I can't help but feel bad for him that he felt it necessary to cover it up with this....not so well thought out story. Honestly, that's the only way Te'o comes out of this looking good - the only thing that would be left to explain is where the money raised went, but past that he'd be good.

Even if that's the issue, he doesn't come out ( no pun intended) looking that good, as it's still a dopey, bizarre story regardless.

I'm pretty much in agreement but I read somewhere that the main people involved were thought to be shopping the story. I don't by it though as I don't think any company would touch it and deal with the legal issues unless Te'o was in on it to waive all that.

What would the child of Lennay Kekau and Little Jimmy look like? With the 9th pick in the 2013 NFL Draft, the New York Jets select... I'd laugh except you might be right. Ah hell, I think I'll laugh anyway.

Here's a theory that came to my attention: My dad and I were watching the news about this on First Take, and one the question I posed to him was "Why would he make up a girlfriend, when being the star football player on a team he would no problem getting a real one?". Now my dad is a therapist and psychologist of many decades and he deducted that due to the environment of his college and sports locker rooms in general that the real reason he made up the girlfriend was to cover up his sexuality. He speculated that this only the tip of iceberg when it came to this story.

@chitribhamilton
By the way, on @waddleandsilvy, the guys told me Bristol called. ESPN/Schaap sitdown with Manti Te'o was "scrapped." Just passing it along.
