    The Manti Te'o girlfriend hoax

    Rumor has it that Manti Te'o's dead girlfriend might have been a hoax? If so, wow.

    Had no social security record. Now I'm hearing that someone else might have made her up and only existed in social media? This story is getting weirder as it unfolds.

    Read the deadspin link... everything is there. It was created by a friend/acquaintance of Te'o.

    Notre Dame just came out with a statement that Te'o is the victim in this where the woman and others conspired to make him believe she was dead. LOL weird shit.

    WOW. Talk about a draft stock killer. DAMN.

    He'll be lucky if he even gets drafted after this debacle.

    Yeah. Notre Dame jumped out quick to say Te'o is the victim, but more details are coming out saying he was involved.

    Manti Teo the douschebag

    This LB pretends to have a girlfriend who tragically dies as part of a hoax for publicity. What a loser.

    Yeah it definitely smells. Weiner used the same excuse but this is WAY too big of a story for the truth to not come out SOON.

    Well, if the entire and full truth of this story does end up as bad as it currently appears, thank god Te'o did not win the Heisman this year. What a black mark that would have been, seemingly creating and using this fake tragedy to increase his national profile and use it to try and launch a campaign for the Heisman and try to increase his draft stock.

    Te'o's girlfriend stars in A Haunted House that comes out Friday. The timing is too obvious.

    Oprah has to be pissed. All the heat just evaporated off Lance.
