No, you HAVE TO blame it on Jay Cutler, EVERYTHING from here on out is his fault. Ask ESPN. LOL.

I think Te'o will be the new punching bag now. Big no-no to hoax the media hoaxters.

We lost a beautiful young lady far, FAR too soon. But to those who knew her, the brief impression that she made upon them will last a lifetime. T'eo deserves our sympathy. I hold the forum members here in high regard and I think the time to make a difference in one young man's life is now. I was thinking that perhaps, we here, at dabears.com could launch a charity fundraiser for T'eo and his family. We have enough class acts here that are good for that. I'm sorry, but I have to leave - I'm going to find the closest loved one in my house and hug him/her...because, we never know when the last embrace could be. And I love you all, too.

I'll come back later when I'm collected and see what that article on page 1 was about.

Nicely done. Last line is pretty funny.

This carries as much weight in the long run as Marino smoking weed or Peyton Manning sexually harassing someone at Tennessee. Point being, if he's good, no one will remember this, if it is indeed a hoax; if he sucks, no one will remember him. If he could drop to us at 20 or later, we get him.

If we could get him at a reduced draft pick price, then I'm fine with that.

Second chances sure.... but the longer he lies about it the worse he comes off.

Well, if this is all true, this is too bizzar. This may not have hurt anyone, but, frankly, it's kinda sick and unstable. This isn't just a stupid prank, or a disgusting rap song like Olsen took part in. This is long term deception. It's just wierd, and I wouldn't draft him at all, regardless of how far he drops.

Teams are built on trust, and while it may have no bearing on the trust to do your job, it certainly undermines the value of trust among those around you. Its actually pretty sad for whatever reasons he had for doing this...if its true.
