Corso is an idiot and 2. well, if you're hungover, and there's nothing else on...why not. Other than that, the games are more than enough to keep me interested. This was the first time I had heard of his gf.

I watch it for the college kids holding up signs with pictures of players' hot girlfriends.

I don't know. Maybe Te'o got to a point where he was insisting on meeting her, and there was no "her" to meet, so they had to bail out. Maybe they weren't able to dupe him any longer, so they just ended the whole thing. Maybe they got scared, and realized that they were breaking a law. I have no idea.

Was this really right before the huge payday? This realationship was months and months ago. Te'o's huge payday probably is still months and months away.

Jesus [expletive] christ I hate it when you parse words. But, yes, it ended September 2012, he'll be drafted April 2013. That's less than a year, ergo months (less than 8) is the appropriate wording. [expletive] hell.

Good question. I could see a girl reeling him in, just to eventually cash in on the money that he was going to eventually get.

Uh, yeah, when girls do that, they usually don't fake a death though. Actually, it happens to like 99.99% of all pro athletes I'd guess and as far as I know, all of them are real up until now and none of them have fake died.

The girl was real, she just wasn't Leenay Kuku or whatever her name was. If she really wanted Te'o, and he was infact duped, they could have met.

Of course she's real. There's also a pretty good chance that she looks like Roseanne Barr. She wasn't going to get any money out of him if they actually met.

I think you need to look at the tweets that JL has linked.
