Meh
Holy shit..... I need to be the MaxBuck-style contrarian on this.
I'm not saying I buy into what Te'o and Notre Dame are saying, but I'm not about to discount it either. There are lots of unanswered questions, but I think it's a lot more realistic that he was duped and then embellished his relationship with her rather than developing a plot whereby he sucks up to Heisman voters with a sob story.
If you take what Te'o and ND are saying at face value, he was in a long-term relationship with a (alleged) woman that he had never met. OK, so if the story broke that she died and you were being asked questions about how well you knew her, would you come clean and say that she was an on-line girlfriend? I think most people would throw in various addenda about having met, talked on the phone, etc. to make it sound less...pathetic.
Don't get me wrong, I loathe everything about Notre Dame - the conceit, the arrogance, the vastly overrated academics - but I'm willing to wait this one out before accepting that Te'o came up with such a devious and warped plan to get a Heisman.
Anyway, back to your skewering of him and Notre Dame. My agnosticism on this issue aside, it's fucking hilarious.

Even if Te'o is completely innocent, he's still a moron. I'm sorry, I don't feel bad for people who get scammed on the freaking Internet. If it's to good to be true, it's usually because it isn't. Go meet somebody at a bar, or CHURCH! You're at freaking notre dame fer God sakes.

Deadspin was first tipped off by a Bama fan, who came up empty while looking to poison flowers at Kekua's grave.

i doubt that was his motivation, just a by product.
probably went something like this.
Teo is having gay buttsex with the Tuiasospo guy, but can't come clean on that.
Needs a way to explain the all night phone calls to California, parents not meeting his significant other, etc.
BOOM, make up a girlfriend story.
works for a while until mom and dad decide they need to meet this girl if they still together this long. must be serious, she could become their daughter in law.
need to buy some time somehow....hmmmm.
CAR WRECK!
shit, that's only temporary. they want to meet her at a game this year. how can we prolong this a bit?
um leukemia! yeah, leukemia. no way they expect a cancer patient to fly across country to meet us. this will definitely buy more time for us to figure a way out of this mess.
aww crap. she can't have leukemia. mom and pop are going to constantly ask questions, how can we keep this up?
dude, we gotta kill her off. people will feel sorry for you at 1st, but it's football season. no one is ever going to even think about her again in a week or so.
what about the funeral? won't you be expected to go away for a day or two for a funeral?
make it on gameday. that way they know I can't leave.
sweet! this is gonna work.
unfortunately, like all tall tales, it kept growing.
the media picked it up, ran with it, turned it into a feel good story, jammed it down our throats, used it to perk up his Heisman status, etc.
Te'o had no choice but to roll with it.
It was too big to back down. He had to hope the story would just fade away once he got through the season.
OOOOOPS!
busted.

http://www.thebiglead.com/index.php...back-reagan-mauia-who-claims-to-have-met-her/So...either this guy was duped too, or...well, I don't know. It's like the story that keeps on giving. FWIW, I think Te'o was in on it since Deadspin said the guy behind it was related to Manti.
