QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jan 17, 2013 -> 06:01 AM) Who is Troy? The only 2 I know of are Aikman and Polumalu. Appears to be talking about Polumalu. Guess it just got weirder, but I think it was probably just hacked.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jan 17, 2013 -> 03:19 AM) It wouldn't have been a story if she didn't die. The story made news because he lost 2 loved ones so close to one another. I realize why it became a story. He clearly did not. Or he wanted to promote himself I guess, as GT said.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jan 17, 2013 -> 03:16 AM) Are you serious? Killing her off made it a huge story. Otherwise, nobody would have cared. Nobody cares who these kids are dating. I can understand him wanting to hide his sexuality. The easiest way is to not discuss it. Why would he volunteer any information? Because he had no idea how big this story would be. Whatever you think happened, that part is true.

QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Jan 17, 2013 -> 03:09 AM) If it was all to cover up his sexuality, why say that she died? That makes no sense. Why wouldn't he say that they broke up? It just doesn't seem logical. What does breaking up with her solve? Killing her off makes sure no asked who your girlfriend is.

OMG, Swarbrick bringing out the tears. This is the greatest thing ever.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jan 17, 2013 -> 01:30 AM) All I will say is that you are a bunch of sick f***s, and I'm betting that less than half of you will have the balls to admit you were wrong and apologize when Te'o is proven not to be in on the hoax. Sick f***s continue to support Notre Dame football.

ESPN cut it off. Here's a link to the continued trainwreck: http://hqplayer.nbcsports.com/Player.html?PID=99

Swarbrick is choking here.

Swarbrick now going on a tangent about the MTV show Catfish. LOL It's on ESPNNEWS

This is the strangest press conference of all-time, and that is saying something.

I can't believe they are actually having a press conference over this. This is amazing.

I can't even watch this game because the f***ing terrible raptor sign hurts my eyes.

I think Teo and Tuiassasopo are boy toys.

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Jan 16, 2013 -> 11:46 PM) http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/...apparently-hoax 1) If Manti was in on the hoax, why would he voluntarily tell ND three weeks before Deadspin got the story? 2) ND's reputation is a lot bigger than Manti. They aren't sticking their neck out for him if they aren't pretty sure he wasn't in on it. Not sure ND wasn't in on it at some point.

Yay, Hickory is reading.

That sounded so depressing to when ESPN had to give credit to DeadSpin. DeadSpin had been in a war with them for attributing stories to "sources" rather than actual outlets.

There is something hilarious that the SportsCenter headline right now is: "BREAKING NEWS: MANTI TE'O'S GIRLFRIEND DID NOT EXIST"

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jan 17, 2013 -> 12:01 AM) Well, PTI already talked about it. Yes. They finally made mention of it on ESPN.com

It'll be fun to see how long ESPN can hold off on the story since they were duped. Nothing on .com yet. SC coming up at 5.

You must be pretty awful to lose to Wisconsin

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jan 15, 2013 -> 02:08 AM) Hawks scored five points in the second quarter. Dear lord. Is that an alltime NBA low since the shot clock?

Free Devin Langford

QUOTE (Boogua @ Jan 12, 2013 -> 08:18 PM) The roster is horribly flawed. The fact that he even has the Illini ranked at this point is extremely impressive. Although I do think the defense has been extremely underwhelming and should be better with the athletes that the Illini have. I don't care what the roster is, shooting 25% in half for the 3rd time in four games is just inexcusable. Even they are better than that, but they have no concept of shot selection.

Also, burn in hell Steve Stricker!

The questions be coming for John Groce.
