LOL - heartwarming Manti Teo girlfriend dying story was a hoax

[dubbsco]

The question is, why would he save this voice mails???? One of them was something like, "have a good night." The other was "her" going off on him for supposedly having another girl in his room. Why the F would you save those?

Is there any real proof that those saved VMs weren't from a couple of days ago?

I give him credit for going on with Katie Couric but it really makes him look like a complete idiot. He isnt really helping himself much.

 

[dubbsco]

No, and the phone call list that he provided is not actually provided from the company, but some weird ass spreadsheet. It's so f'ing weird. Any ND fan who believes he doesn't have his hand in this is oblivious.

Katie Couric: "Are you gay"

Te'o: (laughing) "No... No. Far from it!!"

Ehhhhh, this guy is psychotic.

Yeah it'd be pretty tough to throw together three saved VMs to leak out.

 

[dubbsco]

I don't give him any credit for going on with Couric. Listening to the radio earlier, said that Te'o and Couric have the same PR people. I would have to imagine that they prepped the shit out of him, and told him what questions she would ask.

Ehhhhh, this guy is psychotic.

Couric: "Are you gay"

Te'o: "Gay how? Like how gay? You mean happy gay or gay ..gay?"

 

[Monster]

Is it just me or does lennay's voice sound exactly like diane o'meara?

Katie Couric: "Are you gay"

Te'o: (laughing) "No... No. Far from it!!"

Ehhhhh, this guy is psychotic.

How is that psychotic?

 

[dubbsco]

Because he is all over the place. When he was asked, he basically sounded without saying directly, "WHAT, GAY??? GAY PEOPLE ARE AWFUL." He tried SO hard to cover it up and deny it, it has to be a possibility now, when I thought it wasn't before. This story has taken so many turns.

 

[dubbsco]

Monster, Couric asked him why he didn't visit his girlfriend when she was dying, and I don't remember the exact words, but it was something along the lines of, "It never crossed my mind."

The guy, who admitted after this all started, that this was the love his life, couldn't even consider visiting his "dying girlfriend???" Every time this guy speaks, he makes himself like worse, digs himself a bigger hole. He is involved, and he is not a poor victim.

[Michchamp]

LOL, that is funny.

this chode was clearly in on it from day one. there's no way any guy in his place takes a twitter relationship and runs with it like that for a million miles of publicity and gets fooled like that. he's such a lying fake piece of shit, you can see it through video.

 

[TheVictors]

Is it fair to assume that ....like most college kids, oh forget it.



NBC does seem to be in defense mode, however.

 

[dubbsco]

Yeah. My stance on him hasn't changed one bit since the story was released. The only thing that is different is that he didn't create the girl. But its painfully obvious he was in on this.

If it is revealed to you on dec 6th that it wasn't a girl, then why do you save those voice mails? They weren't special voice mails. Do people save voice mails? I know I don't.

It wasn't revealed on the 6th. If you believe his story, on the 6th he got a call from Lennay saying she wasn't dead and there was some back and forth after that where he still thought he was a she. Tuiasosopo didn't reveal he was behind it all until Jan 16th. If you don't believe his story, then he knew well before Dec. Either way, I don't think saving voicemails means much.

I have to hit delete for my voicemail to go away. If I don't, my phone will ask for permission to delete them if they get too old. I do have one very old voicemail saved, but other than that one, I often have 3 or 4 voicemails sitting there from withing the last couple months.

 

[redandguilty]

I didn't see the Couric interview. Has anyone asked him yet how he reacted when he found out he'd been talking to a guy when he thought he was talking to a girl?

 

[dubbsco]

If I were to ever save any voice mail, it would have to be damn good. I wouldn't save one accusing me of hooking up with others girls, or one that says "hi, have a good night."
