I DVR'd the Dr. Phil show yesterday... Seriously that show sucks.  But it was interesting some of the responses this kid gave.  Today is part 2, and he is going to re-enact the 'voice'.  According to Dr. Phil, he had analyst from the FBI review the voicemails and they said it was very unlikely it was 'his' voice.  But he did re-enact the voice - and it is airing today and I guess it was a match?

Here is the video which was posted to TMZ.

I think this story has finally hit bottom.

Quote:

The man who says he tricked Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o into falling for a fake woman he created online claims the hoax had "everything to do" with escaping from real life because he had been molested as a child.

Yeah, I am over it. When it was a hoax it was more intriguing because of the conspiracy aspect. Now... we are peeping into the life an an extremely troubled young man and it is sort of icky.

In my opinion, this dude really lost his man-card with this hoax.

The media and controversy seemed to affect his combine results and he's a small linebacker.

Potential bust in my eyes.

Actually it would be the opposite if he falls out of the 1st which there is now a good chance he will it would eliminate the chance of being a bust.

Te'o is a Charger now but that doesn't save him from ridicule from the local press.

If he had a real sense of humor, he would have shown up at the draft and left an empty seat next to him in her her honor (stolen from the Sklar brothers)

That would have been hilarious if he did that. Who knows...maybe it would have bumped him up in the draft too.

He's hoping that by ignoring the story, it will make it go away, which it might, but it's going to take a while.

    • Day 105: mirror work today. Focused on not looping my hands at the top of the swing. Straight down. 
    • Still working on the backswing a bit. Hand still gets away from the body, out towards the ball, and at A2 the club wants to roll over and get flat at A3. It's just very difficult to shallow from that position like I want. Which makes my downswing work impossible.  Backswing I have been playing around with the left leg straightening to start the backswing. It's like, a slight shove of the hips right with the left leg. Then just keep the flex in the right knee as I turn into it. I kind of like it. I never had a good swing trigger. It helps keep my left knee extended.  Yea, definitely feeling the hand path is traveling down the feet line, and straight up. A little bit of wrist rotation, and a lot more hinge sooner in the right wrist and elbow. I am trying to get the feeling that the arm hinging up then is the cause for the right shoulder to retract to finish the backswing. Club feels much more vertical at A3. I am trying to have my wrist fully hinged by then.  Feel the club and arms stop at A3.5 (my A4). If my arm collapses late, then I turn into that and I am pretty much screwed. The club and arms kind of have a floaty feeling, where they are just suspended in air for a bit, then drop.  Downswing I have been trying to think of a good visual for this mentally. I like the idea of my hands taking a wide arc to my right pocket, or I am taking the back of the hosel and trying to hit the ground behind my right foot.    Left knee stuff, just sooner. 
    • Day 78 - 2026-03-10 Backswing work at the net with foam balls, a few real ball swings.
    • Day 525 - 2026-03-10 Got some work in before lessons today (was going to play after but it decided to POUR). Then like three minutes in later on.
    • Day 2 (10 Mar 26) - Worked on weight shift feel using slap stick drill (hands about 6” apart - coming back weight on trail foot - down - thru weight on lead foot….moved it to hitting chips w/9i playing what I call “leap frog” - hit 1st about 10yds, the next a couple past the 1st, for about 6 balls total.  Love it as the lies change, the distances vary making each swing slightly different.
