I...okay, so, yeah, it was 2009-2012 so things were slightly different but there were more red flags than I can even explain. Also, the fake "Lennay" person is just evil. They're truly proud of this. I will say Te'o seems like a good dude.
Manti Te'o/The Girlfriend That Didn't Exist
- Thread starter LandoComando
- Start date
When you claim to have a girlfriend you've never met and have no problem reaping the benefits of the sympathy that comes with her untimely death you get what you deserve.
Also Swarbick comes across as a d-bag. You seriously consulted advisors and they told you to keep it quiet? You need some new advisors.
Te'o made a ton of mistakes in throughout that situation. There were more red flags than anyone should be able to ignore. Doesn't alter the fact he still comes across as a good dude--just sheltered and naïve.
So do you recommend the show?
That disgusting looking fat person in the trailer made me not watch.
I thought it was worth watching but it probably depends on how closely you followed it. I didn't recall a lot of what happened after the hoax was exposed. "Lennay" is disgusting but is also psychotic which typically makes for good tv.
The first I knew of it was when the headline of her being fake hit.
The live drama / tabloid part of football I avoid.
But as documentary I probably would watch it.

yeah, I don't care about the "sob stories" or any of that. It's completely irrelevant to sports but I don't mind watching the aftermath of it. Like some of the 30 for 30s.
