I heard about this who catfish ordeal that happened to this Manti Te'O. I also watched the Katie Couric show w/ Manti on it. I am more confused, but still interested. I can't help to not watch I am intrigued in this story for some reason. Leaves one w/ more questions and wonder than answers.
How do you feel about this person or this story?

I haven't really been following it at all. Just caught bits and pieces of it. All seems kind of crazy to me.

I feel he truly was "catfished." He's a friend of mines nephew. She said he's having a really had time right now. I wish people would drop it too. I feel really bad for him.

ladyandrearose- Manti was part of a catfishing hoax.
P.S. If anyone is interested there is a 2 part interview w/ the person who sounded like the girl (the mastermind) behind this catfishing hoax on Dr. Phil tomorrow & Friday. Not sure if I will take time to watch it or not yet.

Andrea-
Manti Te'o is football player for Notre Dame and he came in 2nd for the Heisman trophy (the biggest solo award in college football) this year. It turns out that the internet girlfriend he thought had died from leukemia (?) earlier this season never actually existed and he was the victim of a hoax. It has been all over the news and there was speculation about whether he did or did not know that she wasn't a real person. Some people are saying he made it up for the "human interest story" with her dying and him playing for her memory. Other people say he was the victim.
