Maybe your'e gay unlike me who's totally straight and is actually in the middle of a "party" with like 13 chicks (personally lost count). Typical Wednesday Night or as I like to call it "ladies night." Just taking a break to post on the Internets while I catch my breaths.

If Te'o is not gay now, he better get gay fast.

"Admitting" he made the whole thing up to hide the fact he was gay to protect him from prejudice would take the heat off and probably turn him into some kind of hero.

While I was reading the deadspin story, that's the assumption I got. I can't see any other explanation for it... being embarrassed about an online relationship doesn't lead to a magnitude of this cover-up. He's Mormon and an athlete in an alpha male environment- two reasons why he may have felt compelled to have a virtual "beard" so to speak.

That or he's just mentally ill.

The triple whammy.

I never understood that. Not just a mormon football player, but a guy from nice tropical Hawaii who had offers to go to ANY SCHOOL in the country, and he turns down BYU, USC, Florida, Bama, UCLA, Texas and so on for Notre Dame who wasn't a winning team at all, where its bad weather and bad football. I mean yeah I know the whole ''Notre Dame is a historic school and used to be a power house'' but c'mon they were awful and there was no way he knew they would eventually be National Title contenders, just doesn't make sense to me.

Then again he could be gay after seeing what he wore at the Heismann ceremony...


...(I kid, I kid I know its a lei)

A couple of funny things I saw on Twitter today:

Seth Meyers ‏@sethmeyers21
These Te'o jokes are all very funny but let's all try and remember that a person who never existed is dead.

Lou Holtz ‏@PretendLouHoltz
I could seesh Marth May making up a prethend girlfriendsh buth noth you Manthi!


--This just in now an NFL player says that she is a real person--this story keeps getting weirder and weirder

[FRPLG]

This is the craziest sh** ever in the sports world. God people are weird.

No. He fell for some girl online that he never met. I mean I know he is just a kid, but you have to be pretty naive or crazy to be talking about your "girlfriend" on TV and you never even met her? I firmly believe he thought she was real. Either way it is one of the most ****ed up unbelievable stories i have ever heard. Oh, and you should watch catfish on mtv - its about online relationships. Hysterical.
Edit: wow - it was already the all time headscratcher after i saw the segment on espn about it. Now after reading the link SS posted im ****ing confused as all hell.
The man needs to hold a press conference and tell the whole true story - gay - fake - live - dead - whatever.....

No. You obviously didn't read the article linked earlier on the page. Many times, He claimed to have met her more than once and talked to her every night on the phone. So if you firmly believe he thought she was real then you must also firmly believe he suffers from schizophrenia.

I was actually replying to punch, who formed an opinion and went on a mini-rant when he obviously hadn't read the story to even understand the situation.

I'm just excited to have something to talk about other than a certain injury to our quarterback
