Manti Te’o documentary: the world reacts

Have you watched? If so, what are your main takeaways?

  • I have no doubt Naya Tuiasosopo had an incredibly difficult life dealing with what she dealt with but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a less remorseful person in my life.  Every time she opened her mouth in the documentary she just buried herself deeper and deeper.
  • The majestic team at Deadspin couldn’t wait to put “hoax” in the headline of their story and publish that Te’o may have known (although he clearly didn’t), but can’t wait to play victim in the documentary because all they were doing were going after ESPN and Sports Illustrated.
  • Seeing [autotag]Louis Nix[/autotag] celebrating after the goal line stand against Stanford made me tear up.  RIP Big Lou.
  • Deadspin downplaying Te’o as a legit Heisman Trophy candidate that season is beyond laughable
  • The absurdity of the Katie Couric interview is even more ridiculous 10 years later.
  • Dr. Phil makes me incredibly uncomfortable whenever I see him on  TV but even he couldn’t get past the absurdity of the Naya Tuiasosopo ridiculousness.
  • Were [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] or Bob Diaco asked to be on this?  I’d be very curious to see what each had to say about literally everything that 2012 season and the days and weeks that followed it.
  • Manti has more compassion and forgiveness in the pinky finger on his left hand than I do in my entire body and you can’t walk away not impressed by him upon watching this.
