Just got home for a break and on the radio, Dan Barriero had a guest on that supposedly knew about the fake girlfriend for awhile now.  The link is the podcast to his show. The 30 minute mark is the beginning of the interview.

Want the real cynic in me to throw out there a far fetched possibility...


People started to question Manti's sexuality.. and this ruse was built as a cover for the hoax. What better way to have a girlfriend, end the constant questions without actually having to date/whatever than a faux girlfriend. Avoidance of the constant questions?

Without some type of extortion element.. it seems to be the only possibly I can come up with to carry it out this far.

yeah I saw a few references to this theory today. Don't know if it is so or not. Don't want to know either.

I never thought of this. It seems plausible the more I think about it because I read some similar whispers and rumors.

I haven't seen that theory.. just nothing else seems plausible. Nothing else seems to make a fit.

dfosterf (12-May) : Today would be a good day to discover the Pack signed Taylor Engersma, the Canadian QB
Zero2Cool (11-May) : It wasn't. He simply wanted his money back. They refused. Cops came. They gave him his money in end.

Zero2Cool (10-May) : Elgton Jenkins Involved In Strip Club Dispute ... Cops Called To Mitigate

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning
Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?
beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.
