If you haven’t caught up with the confusing episode of Manti Te’o, ESPN’s interview with him will confuse you even more.
The information suggests that he really was duped in the whole ordeal, that every aspect of his story is believable enough. Te’o, from the information here, is just a really naive, gullible man that fell for a prank that lasted for a long time.
Is that believable? It’s not impossible. But can we really believe that a man can be that foolish? It’s so far-fetched that it seems even more likely that he is covering up something. The information is out there and it’s harder to figure out which parts of is are real. I don’t know if we ever will but it continues to be an intriguing story to follow.
Strange that some aspects of this story just don’t seem right.
I won’t hold judgment, but I am leaning towards one direction as of right now. I think that Te’o is lying about his involvement but there’s enough information presented that makes me think that there is that chance that maybe Te’o is just a gullible man.
