"I know this sounds fantastical, but you gotta believe me from the way he said it" yeah, just like his whole gf story sounded fantastical and we all believed it?
Didn't believe she was fake until Wednesday, but told ND about being the victim of the hoax on 12/26? That dog don't hunt, monsignor.
fuck you ESPN, you didn't have to acquiesce to this bullshit, make the motherfucker stand in front of 50 journalists with a week of research and prepared follow-up questions
You're so disappointed right now. But Te'o and Schaap are probably fucking each other, so this is just to cover up their gay relationship.
STFU Schapp, even Notre Dame fans know at the very least he embellished the relationship to his advantage. Nobody buys your bullshit, faggot
seriously, April 28th, told she was in a coma I imagine spring practice is basically done and school is out in a couple weeks did he try to visit a girl he was in love with? Nope.
in the grand scheme of things, who gives a fuck about this guy? he's going to end up being a mid-round draft pick, which is about what we thought he would be. espn inflated this LDS to be something he was not and now he's being exposed. ultimately, this is a non-story with no real ramifications. fuck him and fuck ND is the consensus. same as it always was.
God damnit, Schaap. How do you not hammer him with questions about turning the relationship into something it wasn't? That's busch league. How do you ask if he was involved and then turn into spin mode for Teo? Your daddy is rolling over in his grave.

[whiteknight]So he told ND about the hoax on the 26th but didn't realize she was completely fake until 2 days ago[/whiteknight]
Exactly. 2.5 hours is no where near as long as it would take to ask all the questions that are out there.
I just don't quite get why ESPN agreed to this format. They shouldn't have any interest in protecting Te'O or Notre Dame yet it seems like that's all they've been doing the past 48-72 hours.
Mr. Schaap, what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
eh, plenty of time, not saying anything came of this, but 2.5 hours is enough time to get answers with a good interview. The whole Lance Armstrong interview with years to cover was 2.5 hours
2.5 hours was plenty of time. Hell, there's like 5 3 questions that need to be answered. - Explain why you told multiple people you met her - Explain why you never went to see her while she was in the hospital from a car wreck or leukemia - Why why you built up your relationship to be something it wasn't after she died
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't happy that this didn't answer any questions and will make this 88 page thread a 288 page thread.
Well he just interviewed the guy and now has to figure out how to express the way Te'o was acting. Tough part of the job for him.
And then he said, and then I said, and then he said. This is what life in 1850 was like, before we had fucking tape recorders
Probably don't want to burn any bridges since their TV contract is up in a couple of years. I'd imagine they'll just re-up with NBC anyway, but I don't imagine ESPN/Disney wants to take themselves out of the running by going on a witch hunt on their most public player in years.
why is Schaap filling in words and explanations?? Why is there no video and audio? This is beyond Busch league. You dont ask about how you cant decipher 3 different voices from someone you talked to strictly for 3 years??? You cant ask about all the times he said he met?? hahaha im just in awe. Only is father mentioned meeting her? So since he lied to his father he is clear? HOW ABOUT AFTER THE MSU GAME?? HOW ABOUT MENTIONING MORE THAN 3 times in interviews meeting her and talking to her family for support. 2 days ago? GTFO
