For those who are college football fans know about this story of all american middle linebacker Manti Te'o in him telling about his grandmother and girlfriend passing away in the same day. We all felt horrible for him because of the two most important people in his life passing away in the same day. He was looked as a inspiration for what he had gone through the season to be able to help his team make it all the way to the National Championship game. We were all convinced that this happened because of how much attention he had brought upon himself while this happened. Now just yesterday reports came out saying that his girlfriend never existed and that of her passing was false. Reports speculate that he had an online relationship with some young lady by name of Lenny Kekua that she had passed away from leukemia. He said he was a victim of a hoax and that he never meet her and only had a online relationship. Another, report says he knew of this and enjoys the attention he wanted this to happen. Throughout the season he kept saying how she is with him in spirit and that he was going to play the season for them to. He is acting like he is the victim of this situation but if he is the victim why is it that he posted something twitter and had done an interview that was first viewed on ESPN the night of the big game. I think he continues to say alot of lies in trying to make sure he doesnt hurt his chances of getting drafted in the NFL. I had so much respect for this individual in how he conducted himself on the field and played the game. Now that he pulled this stunt i dont know what to think of him anymore.
Manti Te'o put a bad name on himself and especially Notre Dame University for making it seem like something horrific happened to him with his girlfriend. Notre Dame should be ashamed of the act he conducted and are acting like they knew barely anything about this. It is hurtful he would mention that someone would pass away from a deadly disease. Alot of stories are coming out now that his own teammates knew about this and are turning against him. They are saying he enjoys the attention and that he took this alittle to far. How could someone say someone who never exisited passed away from Leukemia. He is using it as a joke in my opinion because of those who truly have it and are battling for there lives. Those people are the ones who are truly hurting and suffering and are going through alot. Leukemia is not something he should be trying to get attention from and use it as publicity. It really makes me aggravated that he pulled this stunt i think no one will trust him every again until we get the true story from him. He needs to publicly come out and say something to try to help him clear his name. Before this happened he was highly considered to be a top ten draft pick but alot of people say now after this happened his stock dropped tremendously. To me he shouldnt be drafted at all or should be drafted later in the draft which many believe this will happen. I think he should do something for those who are fighting the disease and help out with charities to maybe clear his name. I think alot of people will never trust him again and everyone will look at Notre Dame totally different. Notre Dame is a excellent school that doesnt deserve to go through this which means they need to take action against Manti and figure things out so they can get the correct story.
This story truly bothers me a great football like him we thought he was now has everyone looking at hime the wrong way. It is going to take sometime before people arent talking about this for a long time which means he is going to have all this attention on him which he supposdely loves. This indiviudal has alot of issues he needs to have squared away before he could live a normal live because of what they are going to want to know in exactly is going on. I think this was no hoax and he wasnt the victim. The true victim i think out of this is the people who believed him and those who are battle this disease because it is no laughing matter how bad the disease is.
I will be back on saturday night to talk about the exciting games from this weekends college games and for hockey finally being back. Sunday i wont be on until later in the evening after watching the two championship games here are my predictions 49ers out of the NFC and ravens representing the AFC. Have a good and safe weekend.
