I don't really care what the guys involvement was, but you accusing people of burying their heads is laughable.

Where have you been? See this is a prime example of what I'm talking about when people only want to hear and believe what they want to. Hence my example of people burying their heads in the sand. I can see if there was no evidence to support Manti and I just kept saying no, there's no way he was involved, I know this guy he wouldn't do this etc. All I'm doing is following the story since it initially came out and letting the evidence speak for itself.
With all the evidence that has come out, which Deadspin failed to report in their initial article before exposing a high profile athlete without getting any facts beforehand, it's amazing to me that people still believe that he was involved in this.
You want the evidence, here it is.
Phone records, the flower receipt, the hoaxers re-contacting Te'o in December, the hoaxers pretending to be in Miami, the confessions of multiple individuals who spoke with 'Lennay' on the phone, the numerous people who saw Te'o deal with the phone call of Lennay's death, the emergence of Ronaiah Tuiasosopo's cousin as the voice behind Lennay, all the recorded messages from the fake Kekua and the fact that this Tuiasosopo loser has come out and said that he did dupe Te'o and several others as well. The guy is going on Dr. Phil and confessing to the whole thing.
I highly doubt this is Te'os PR camp concocting all this evidence up into exonerating him from all these allegations as you allege to be true.
I guarantee you though that if all the evidence was the complete opposite and it actually gave proof that Te'o was involved in this, nobody would be supporting this guy, including me. I'm just going off of all the information that's come out and I'm shocked that others haven't done the same thing. I understand people have their doubts because to them, nobody could possibly be that naive. But for some idiots to still think that he was involved in this whole thing is just ridiculous.
I get your schtick though. It doesn't matter what myself or anybody else for that matter says to you, you're set in your ways and have already come to the conclusion that it doesn't matter what new type of evidence comes out, it's all BS and all stirred up from Te'os PR camp. You believe what you want to believe. Until something else comes out incriminating Te'o, my stance on this will not change.
I'm done with this story and have been for a while now. The guy was duped, he lied about it and when he found out, did the same thing most of us would do in his position had we been fooled. Is he a terrible person who is a big time liar? No. Too naive and trustworthy? Absolutely.
