Te’o needs to stop lying, focus on football

Te'o lying to himself

Manti Te’o was recently quoted, saying the fake girlfriend hoax will not be on his mind during the NFL combine and drafting process.

“What I did on the field is what I did on the field,” Te’o said. “I don’t think what I did with this whole situation, I don’t understand how it takes away from what I did on the field.”

Manti, it doesn’t take away from what you did on the field. Everyone remembers how you played in the National Championship game, since it looked like the Alabama players you were “tackling” were about as real as Lennay Kekua.

Don’t worry about it, though. I’m sure your poor performance against a highly talented team won’t affect your draft stock. After all, Alabama is far better than any team in the NFL. Right?

But, really. If I could somehow give one piece of advice to Te’o, I would tell him to keep his mouth shut. No one wants to hear an obvious lie, but they do want to see him prove he is worthy of an early draft pick.

  1. You are being awfully hard on very young man who is just trying to make a living playing the game he loves. He is simply trying to move on and if this helps him play football at a higher level. Now let me tell you about racism, that really sucks man.
    Further Alabama would get their shit rocked by any team in the National Football League even the lowly chiefs.
    With warm regards and crossing my fingers about this whole Civil War thing.

  2. That was a little rough, I was rooting for him to win, but no ones likes liars. How does it affect what you do on the field? You don’t live on the field, you must have character to have a good lifestyle and get along with your teammates. Instead of mourning over your “dead girlfriend”, why don’t you search for some character.
