**Copies Netflix documentary days after it was released**
Hey Mike u pick me as a winner 2 weeks ago that DAMON ARNETTE Episode. i text u to response. LMK Thanks
This video was trash.
Yeah Mike there someone impersonating you and tricking people into thinking they won giveaways
I hope you come back and read this so you can see that your following is being attempted to be preyed on your scammers . The guy is using your logo and operating under telegram messenger. I didn’t give him any info
I found the documentary to be somewhat infuriating. Never did the perpetrator apologise or really own their behaviour, they merely played the victim. I don’t care what personal battles you may be overcoming, it does not give anyone the right to impact the lives of others. The events single-handedly ruined what could of been a HOF career. Didn’t even have the guts to apologise on camera. Makes me sick.
The only thing Manti is guilty of being gullible.
The media, and society as a whole let this young man down in a big way also.
Glad to hear that Manti is doing well, happily married and seems to be at peace with his life.
Literally one the worst humans in the history of man kind
@@PRODbyKingDavis I feel, I need, me me me me…actually seeking sympathy for the situation they put themselves in. Not to mention the poor girl who got dragged into all of this unsuspectedly. But…it has a happy ending, the person who made this mess is living happily as a 400 pound woman in American Samoa…that’s all that matters
I think there's a lot of mental health issues with the perpetrator.
@@lisabrightly clearly…still not an excuse. It’s called being an entitled sociopath with desperate need for validation. An identity crisis doesn’t give someone the right to impact others lives, let alone not taking accountability for it.
@@mickyzzzeee so since you know all of that you should also know that sociopaths/psychopaths and entitled people are entirely different than regular people. They're incapable of being accountable for their own actions. Not gonna happen, ever.
The way the media destroyed this man is unforgivable. He deserved way better and they're lucky he's too good of a guy to sue them for defamation of character
Hopefully he's a smart enough guy to go ahead a sue.
💯
He probably spent most of his young life training with the devotion of an ascetic. I'd say it's feasible that he missed out on opportunities to develop certain social skills and self-awareness... totally understandable how someone in his position could fall prey to something like this. If he comes through, it's a testament to his strength.
Typical of journalists. Another notch on their belt.
Not only the media but "Lennay"
I remember that entire situation as it was happening, and the media definitely kept trying to put Manti in a negative light. Kid seems to be doing well today, so I'm glad he was able to overcome all of the adversity he faced. Good for him.
We all did
The media definitely made it seem like he did something wrong. Thing is he got caught in a catfish by a very disturbed person that created an elaborate scheme. I just hated how the Netflix documentary tried to paint the scammer as also a victim because of gender identity. The only victim in all of this was Manti.
@@strongmonk5094 I agree 100%.
The media would burn their own children for ratings.
No they didn’t , he’s just weirdo
He got Catfished
He forgave the person who did it to him
He's a free agaent (NFL)
He's married has a kid
He also helps Coaching HS football
He has turned a new page
He's still a good person
Fuck I just watched it on Netflix and what bothers me so much is how non-remorseful that cat fishing dude is and how they allowed him to be. It turned into “yeah, I fucked his whole life up, made him a living meme, took millions from him in draft stock, but Yey LGBTQ I get to be myself! Go me! Go pride! I’m free!!!” And no one held him/her accountable wtf 🤬 this was a horror documentary
Absolutely. Basically saying I can destroy someone else’s life to fulfil my own void. Then I get to play victim when it blows up in my face.
💯
@@apopisso6302 it was almost portraying her as the victim. I wonder if a heterosexual male would have been awarded the same luxury
@Brandon Rivers: Thank you! You and I reacted the same way to the NETFLIX documentary.
Fuck his pronouns. Remember, it’s not like he came out and admitted what he did. He got caught. Then to watch him smile while he talks about how he destroyed another dude’s life. That’s pure narcissism.
Imagine ruining someone’s life because of your own identity struggles. Fucking grossssss.
His ending monologue was inspiring! Brought me to tears.
Just watched the doc last night. We reallllly failed this kid as a society. The media above all, but we swallowed it & didn’t ask any questions. Wish I could give dude a hug & tell him I’m sorry for not having his back. Dude got finessed so hard. Those voicemails- bro, I woulda fallen for it too! Only reason it wouldn’t have gotten so crazy is cuz I wasn’t a superstar linebacker away at Notre Dame prepping for a heisman, national championship & the NFL draft.
I loved watching Dr Phil have to eat a little crow when the scammer went on his show and Phil tried to call out the scammer saying he could not throw his voice good enough to pass as a girl. Dude went behind that screen and Dr Phil's bottom jaw hit the floor. LOL.
This is one of the craziest stories I've ever heard of. I keep thinking about how Tao going from a first round pick to 2nd cost him around $15,000,000, most of it being in the signing bonus. I would sue the scammer for all "they" have.
The guys dumb as fuck meeting people before falling in love with them is usually a safer way to go 😂
Hey just wanted to tell you that Plz read everything btw Jehovah and his son Jesus Christ love you so much that God would send his one and only son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for our sins and rose from the dead 3 days later Get a relationship with God and Jesus and confess for your sins and Live for Christ and not the world and allow God and Jesus into your hearts. God and Jesus are trying to save you from going to hell.
HELL IS NOT A JOKE. Jehovah and Jesus are all of our Gods and Lords and Saviors✝️✝️✝️✝️SPREAD THE WORD✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️Pray to Jehovah and his son Jesus Christ get saved today ✝️✝️✝️✝️SPREAD THE GOSPEL✝️✝️✝️✝️
I wouldnt have fell for it only because I wouldve needed to see a return on my investment. But because he was very religious and was most likely a virgin, I could understand how he didnt look at things the same way.
Couldn't agree more. I have learned over the past couple of years how the media is just scum. I was still in college when all this went down and remember how they tried to paint Manti as someone who did something wrong when he was just a victim to a very disturbed person who created an elaborate scheme. Even now, the documentary is still trying to portray the scammer as also a victim because of trans/gender identity. The only real victim in all of this was Manti.
Imagine playing that well while dealing with the injuries and anxiety/depression. Dude would’ve been a monster had the catfishing thing never happened
I totally agree. Ashamed we never got to see him at his best. Side bar, we never got to see the real Jaylon Smith because of Taylor Dekkers cheap shot in that bowl game
I hope he has moved on to something else better. His brain is safer for it. And I hope the doc made him lots of money, more than football. If he needs to sue someone or an organization he should
I kind of thought that might have help fuel the “monster” that he was
At the end when he said he forgives the cat fisher I cried. It was beautiful. I have so much respect for him.
I like his very last message about how he would do it even for one fan he would endure the ridicule if taking the picture with one true fan would impact their lives. I can't remember exactly how he said it but it was profound.
@@blessedtag He is so underrated. He’s an amazing person 😊
Sounds like you are the catfisher on another burner account 🤣
Are you a catfisher? Sheesh
The end of that documentary was fire, inspiring AF
Yes it was! I literally came on RUclips to try and find it.
I've just watched it. Since I'm from Brazil, I had never heard of him, but I decided to watch the documentary just to practice my English. I was very sad for him... to see the media tear him apart, how people are just that mean, it's just sad, and tells a lot about us humans... That literally changed the course of his life...
You are correct; it's about the money. His father is the worst; not protecting an innocent child.
Don't send an innocent & obedient child out into this chaotic world.
you're doing well with your English.
I just got done watching the documentary and we owe him a huge apology for treating him the way that he was treated. And no wonder he had difficulty after that anybody would and the fact that he was brave enough to come out and talk about it now I applaud him and it would be nice if all of those people who belittled him made fun of him joked about him would apologize to him because he's owed an apology. It was not one of our proudest moments at all, but I have to say I'm not surprised that he was treated like that people love a good scandal and they don't even care if it's true they don't even care if it hurts anybody they just don't care as long as it gets them ratings they're good
Actually I did it via voice text, sorry it wasn't perfect for you. You must have been real nice in school.
@@lorriestewartross4852 I just like annoying people,I got a reaction ,thanks. A guy like him is cannon fodder for the media, just an ingenue with blind faith. Apparently he’s happy, and is a big enough man to move on. I woulda done something( legally) nasty to that hula dancer.
As for school, well, I was a well behaved child who has since worked hard at being a smart arse know all.
I would have probably done something( legally)nasty as well to the hula dancer.It also sounds like you have been extremely successful 😉
@LorrieStewartRoss yes people suck and go for the jugular when they get a whiff of scandal, just appalling.
Yo that story is sad! He went from being so confident… to doubting everything. He seemed like a genuine nice guy. He didn’t have anger towards the person that did this to him. He was a gullible young man who got taken advantage of.
So sad? Really?
@@craxyman9025 it’s happy?
That’s why they always finish last unfortunately…
@@alexrogers9051 that’s why I’ll treat you like trash….
@@Mr.Pip_ No...I just don't feel sympathy for simps who have girlfriends they never once met in person and then choose to tell the world about her.
The documentary annoyed me cause the catfish wasn’t taking responsibility still for what he did. But then again that’s what they always do based on the mtv show. They tell you their sad story for their whole excuse for wasting someone else’s time. He tried to point out how he feels he sorta helped out Manti, like really?
They tried to portray the scammer as also a victim because of trans/gender identity. Its disgusting how the documentary gives the catfish a pass.
@@strongmonk5094 Exactly!
Yea I mean you gotta be really mentally ill to do all of those things to another person. Pretending to be comatose, having leukemia, be multiple people, pulling your little sister in it… The catfish seemed more embarrassed to recount the events than ashamed of how they destroyed an innocent persons life. Manti is a bigger person than I ever could be in this situation
The narrative gets a pass
@@Bettersucksaul I feel part of the reason he got scammed is because he is such a good trusting person and because of life circumstances (school, busy football schedule, etc). Still couldn't believe he was able to forgive that person. He is such an incredible person on and off the field.
Dude seems like such a good guy
How can a whole nation blame a victim. That's the only sad thing.
Most of the people here see the truth; Te'o was an innocent, naive and obedient kid!
He is a good guy. No question about it.
This story is really about the power to rise above it all! Manti your ability to forgive others and especially yourself was the greatest gift you could have given the world!!!
I 100% agree best comment on this topic.
After watching his documentary. I have nothing but respect for him. Mad respect for his strength and faith.
As a linebacker the most important trait is subconscious play recognition and trusting yourself and what you see to not second guess something and end up in a bad position to make a play.
Imagine going through all of that, and then having to try and trust what *you* see the offense is doing. Totally screwed his confidence in himself and as a defensive player especially - that’s so costly.
Not to mention the type of person he is truthful, humble, and having to that secret to himself after the perpetrator revealed themselves to him. That really shook him.
Man, that might very well be. good insight.
I really respect Manti and would be proud and honored to call him my friend. He’s a great and respectable person. I’m glad he had the opportunity to show the situation from his point of view. God bless you and your family Manti and all you loved ones who stuck by your side !!!!
Amen! I agree with you he is so humble even throughout the documentary. I hope to see him become a motivational speaker or maybe a personal life coach. I think he could impact lives for the positive.
I agree as well. Forgiveness is powerful thank God for Maiti showing the world how to forgive.
It's absolutely f***ed up how people deride and laugh at Manti -- to this day! -- over the whole fake gf thing. No one remembers the catfisher, but there are still people who point and laugh at Manti. Like wtf? How was any of that Manti's fault???
💯That part right there
I think this documentary helped him a lot honestly, I totally forgot about it all now but I remember it like it was yesterday we were all cheering for him to win the natty against bama then they lost bad he played bad and then the catfish scandal happened he had a bad combine and dropped to the second round after being a heisman runner up, I’m just glad he found his girl has a family and still got money off the NFL. Happy for bro
Saw the documentary, and it goes to show how society quickly judge and how News media can turn you into a super star and into the most hated person in a snap. Mati is such a genuine person and he don't deserve such negativity. I wish him well.
The news media always go for the shit sandwich
Great video, that whole situation was so sad, he was just being a good human being and was destroyed for it! Lost millions slipping from the first round to the second and the guy that started the whole thing never did time, or got sued, got mocked relentlessly in the media, by the media, by literally by everyone! Manti is a better person than I would have been. I'm was glad to see he is doing well.
Manti, I just watched your documentary. I am blown away. You should be so proud of yourself as a human being. Wonderful family, pure at heart. Good for you
Totally agree. The bigger message is God's forgiveness 🙏🏽
I just watched this Netflix movie and I have never felt such sadness for a complete stranger,how he was treated and harassed by the media but he handled himself with dignity.Im so happy that is life is blessed with a loving wife and children,he and his family deserve alot of praise,he is a true role model
What’s the name of the documentary on Netflix? I want to watch it
I completely agree with you.
Dude was a solid LB when he played for my Saints. I hate he had to go through all of that.
What did you win? @Bryan Johnson?
Awe how messed up
@@ragincajun993 it might be a bot but I'm reporting every one of those that I see. It's interfering with me reading the comments.
My husband and I just watched the documentary. What a great young man! I feel so bad for what happened to him. Shame on people that made fun of him. God bless him!
Manti was treated like a criminal . I perfectly remember how everything played out. There are literally players in the NFL with multiple run ins with the police that didn’t get treated this way.
@@apopisso6302 I do belive you can be a faithful, religious person while not being naive and oblivious to the harmful nature of humans
I'd never heard of Manti Te'o before but everyone was on about the doc on social media, I cried my eyes out at the end of part 2, poor guy
Same with me. I don't even follow football but I heard about it on POTUS on Sirius XM and I had to come find it. Definitely the last part that Manti said was so inspirational.
I resonate with Manti. I too was naive and was catfished in high school. For those who have never experienced something like this, it is hard to grasp and understand the true horror of it all. Similar to Manti, the catfisher eventually decided to "terminate" the relationship by faking a terminal illness, in my case, she had stage IV glioblastoma multiforme. She too pretended to take her last breathe over the phone as I yelled and asked "God why?" I hope Manti finds peace, happiness, and love in his new relationship with his wife.
How did you find out it was fake?
For myself, I'm the opposite of Manti. I'm naturally suspicious and untrusting. Call it street smarts or whatever else. But I'm one who ASSUMES the worst in people, and I wait for them to PROVE to me that they can be trusted. Why am I like this? It's because I KNOW that all people, without exception, has a dark side. Even the most feeble, old lady has a dark side. It's just a matter if a person unleashes it or not.
Damn Manti. I remember when his ND catfishing scandal broke and I felt bad for him, but more than that for some reason we kind of lost respect for him even though that was 100% undeserving. Looking back now, watching this video I found myself rooting for him and wanting him to win. He got the short end of the stick but was obviously incredibly talented and we will wonder what could’ve been in the NFL had some breaks gone his way. Good luck brotha I wish you the best.
I just watched the documentary and all I have to say is wow. I feel so awful for him. He seems like such a good dude and the actions by that girl just made him crumble.
I blame also mostly the news/media outlet and people that ridiculed him
You mean guy he was talking to
Unfortunately we aren’t able to truly express how we feel about situations that don’t agree with the narrative. Yes it is awful and no doubt contributed to his ability to show us what he could have done…all because someone else couldn’t deal with their own lives, they had to negatively impact someone else’s and get away with it.
Every reporter should be ASHAMED of themselves. The fact that people were debating his sexuality, the fact that the NFL COMMENTATORS said that “no one would look up to him as a leader” alluding to his alleged sexuality, is despicable and disgusting. I am so glad he has overcome all of the adversity he faced and not paid attention to the scumbag media. Good for him
More importantly than his outstanding skills as a football player, Manti is an exceptional person as a human being. I pray for his success and peace post football.
Thanks for showing this always wondered what happened to him. So glad he was able to play in the NFL. and have a family.
I remember this man in college and in the NFL, such a well spoken humble young man he was, it is so nice to see that he has moved on past the BS and built a great life for himself. Thank you for this video
He was a baby lamb that's really good at football. He was almost got eaten by the wolves!
This was a good detailed breakdown. I’m about to go watch the doc now. I didn’t know it existed until I read these comments✊🏾
Once you watch it come back to tell us your thoughts
He got screwed so hard. I'm so glad he has a family now and is hopefully happy he deserves it.
I'm not into football, but this guy Te'o seems like a good guy. He made a mistake and the media tried to destroy his career just for higher ratings it's disgusting. I hope he is doing great today.
I’m glad you uploaded this I’ve been wondering the same thing
I got into football when he was already in the league on the saints. So I had no clue about his situation until like last year. When he was in Nola. He was one of my favorite saints.
Yooooo mike I love ur videos and have been watching them for over a year now love this video man this was a video well neeeded for this man I feel so bad and still seeing everyone still be mean and think he was along with everything makes me mad cuz he deserves so much better
man it hurt to see him go through all this with him being from my home state of Hawaii i always loved see athletes from Hawaii thrive but mans had to go through a lot would have loved to see him play and ball out
I appreciate your content
Great stuff
EXCELLENT story Mike and thank you for not rehashing the obvious tribulations he dealt with, which had been already well documented. Injuries throttled his career, IMO I think he could have been even better in the NFL.
Great job! You and FlemLo Raps have the best stories!
I'm a saints fan and was surprised when they signed him due to all the stuff going on,,,,,,it's really too bad what happened,media kept pushing that he was involved ,but he had no clue ......poor guy
This was better than the Netflix doc. Great job bro🤙🏾
You so good, keep doing this videos
Okay
I imagine his combine performance was due to extreme stress. He deserves grace, public apologies, and restitution from that sociopathic monster who catfished him.
hell ya. think of all the pressure on him during the bowl game when he just realized that he got catfished! that asshole could've never contacted him again and be done with it - no drama. But no he couldn't leave his fake love alone could he.
@@ep9691 she*
No he doesn't
Happy for Manti he's got a gorgeous wife and kid on the way stay bless man.
I like your vids bro! Some good shit!….and I like those jerseys in the background!👍💯🔥
Dude seems like such a great guy. What happened to him was awful. I wish nothing but the best for him and his family.
As someone who was catfished…it’s the absolute fucking worst and it’s not about any embarrassment, but the self doubt that creeps in and makes you question everything you do or think. It’s the most violent non-violent act there is.
when you are such a good person that you can’t fathom any other human being doing something bad to you
Great video!
Teo is an inspiration
Can't disagree with you one of the best videos I just saw the documentary this is definitely a great conclusion.
I remember when this happened I was like 12. Just brought back a bunch of memories
Fr I was 9 when in that 2012 season and I remember this situation vividly 💀💀
All the best to manti.Watched his Netflix.Fall from grace and picked himself up again.Inspirational athelete 👍.
Good Lord! I just watched the Netflix series... what a truly remarkable human being!!! An absolute credit to himself and his parents...
Manti...I wish you a fabulous life!
So sad, and so disturbing, but also amazing that he was able to forgive and go on. Such incredible character! God bless you Manti!
Good for Te’o to move on from football and do something positive with his life 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Hey just wanted to tell you that Plz read everything btw Jehovah and his son Jesus Christ love you so much that God would send his one and only son Jesus Christ to die on the cross for our sins and rose from the dead 3 days later Get a relationship with God and Jesus and confess for your sins and Live for Christ and not the world and allow God and Jesus into your hearts.

I think with his leadership skills and positivity that he could be a motivational speaker/ personal life coach and talking about what he went through and how he overcame it could really help others. I would follow him on the socials or listen to him do a Ted talk.
Oh my god, Just saw the docomentary on Netflix...you are my hero.!!!!:)))
Manti, rise up! Keep your head high! You inspire me. Your relationship with our Lord, your love of family, and your desire to help others ❤ is inspirational. Be yourself.
This is exactly what I was looking for nice follow up !
Such a sad story. Even just seeing his highlights showed how he could've been great for many years in the nfl but well those injuries kept him back

Coming From A Fellow Hawaii Resident Manti Teo’s Football Legacy Is The Best Football Player To Come Out Of Hawaii Regardless Of How His NFL Career Played Out Compared To Other Hawaii Players Who Played In The NFL
I’m literally watching the documentary on Netflix rn 🤣 Mike read my mind
Extremely well done video with lots of factual research. The sad thing is that probably half the people watching the netflix doc and this video probably thought he was an idiot. Bullying is never the right answer. Let this be a lesson to you and be a better person.
Manti is a better person than I would ever be to forgive someone who ruined his reputation and career.
Good for him! I’m glad he is doing well!
This story is MIND BLOWING‼️ 🤯
Aloha Manti! The Ohana and I back home in Hawaii are rooting for you to make a comeback. Blessings Uce!
I felt so bad for this dude I followed him through Notre Dame and everything, I always wondered what happened to him, thanks for getting the facts Mike!
You ARE an Inspiration. Stay Strong!!!!!
POV: You watched the documentary.
great video
We did this guy wrong, He is a better person than all of us.
Dag mike you didn’t have to say at the end of the video does he have a real girlfriend like that … but I love the save showing his wife !! Proper way to show great research skills and presentations skills as well .. I’ve been a sub for a long time and will remain that brother .. keep it up brother
I was right next to him as he gave me the what's up n fist pump before the announcement and fog machine started. Shit was dope I had half the team wondering what I was doing with my life eating nachos in my Shawn merriman jersey lol
Thank you for reminding us about the NVP Mitch Tribusky, he will go down in history as the NVP.
The memes people were making that were showed in netflix absolutely destroyed me. I wanted to cry for him, such a horrible thing to happen and people just made it worse. This could have very easily been a NFL superstar suicide story. I'm so glad he's strong enough to make it through.
Manti played for love of the game. No one goes to bears practice team unless they truly love the game. He deserves so much more. Keep calm and play hard, manti
all those seasons with that kind of injury? dude is kind of a badass. Most players we see would have folded up like a bitch and been done when the injury happened.
Im a teo fan! really rooting for him and hope he is living a peaceful life.
Manti deserved better 🙆🏾♀️... that JERK that catfished him 😡 had a lot of nerve and audacity zero remorse 😤 Media was wrong AF for EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!! May the Lord continue to strengthen him his story was and is a inspiration 🔥👏🏾🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽💞🖤
Great documentary..Teo is an awesome human being..FA'A SAMOA
This dude never caught a break. I am a notre dame football fan and remember this happened when I was 10. The media destroyed this dude felt so bad for him.
Great video, I bet if Manti ever saw this he would be proud.
I watched the WHOLE thing. I felt SO BAD afterwards for him. Everyone who talked negative about him should go to h3ll. I wish we knew about catfishing then. The worst part of it all is the "person" that catfished him like didn't get any jail time for fraud or something.. IT JUST SO RIDICULOUS 🤬
Man grow a pair. Con artist have always existed and people knew about them and catfishing back then believe me. And throwing a person I jail for plying pretend online is idiotic. Talk about ridiculous...stop advocating for cops to get involved in everything, especially because someone's feelings got hurt.
@@craxyman9025 Pretending to be someone else online is literally a crime you dimwit
It is disgusting to me how Netflix tries to paint the scammer as also a victim because of trans/gender identity. It feels like the documentary just gives the catfish a pass
@@strongmonk5094 You know netflix doesn’t want to upset the lgbtq community.
That freak cost two millions
What annoyed me the most was those 2 pieces of crap that told him they were going to publish the story and gave him limited time to comment. They didn’t realize how much it impacted Manti on a negative level. He could’ve ended his life due to the backlash he received. All to get the story out.
it is absolutely impossible not to admire this man
He would make for a good interior LB for my Raiders seeing as Thats one of our biggest question marks. But im just glad to see hes still going forward.. The whole Kikua scandal at Notre Dame put the blemish on what shouldve been a great college career a la Dat Nguyen at Texas A&M during the Wrecking Crew days of the 90s
man so glad he figured out life after football....he could probably do a couple more seasons i just hope his foot and acl is completely healed up.....if he didnt have that bad luck with injuries he would have been a mainstay beast.
Got to meet and get to know Manti a lil as we both were on a Charity board together and as great of a Player as he was, and make absolutely no mistake, prior to his foot/achilles injuries, he was Pro Bowl/All-Pro caliber, he is a better person. Having Played the game 17+ years myself, I am extremely cynical of the public personas so carefully crafted for Pro athletes by their minions.
That said, Manti is the Real Deal and just a super friendly kind humble guy without being sickening or self righteously so, as some can be.
Great Guy with incredible family support and foundation and we still touch base a few times a year and he is happy fulfilled and harbors zero regrets or bitterness about the catfishing fiasco, his foot injuries or the way that his NFL career played out.
As we were talking one evening and I'll never forget his response, though paraphrased, "how can I be bitter. I got paid over $10M to Play a game and set my whole family up for life. I have an Amazing wife and a Beautiful daughter. I think that I'm the luckiest man on earth."
He really does believe that and his daily words and actions support that.
Incredible human being in a world of entitled narcissistic megalomaniacal sh!theads💩!!
Continued Success Brotha🍻

I need this closure after watching that documentary
It's pathetic that one person would deceive someone else to the degree that person did to him just to feel better about themselves but I see know reason why they should feel better.
Wouldn’t it be great if we lived in a world where what we felt could be expressed whole heartedly? Unfortunately we have to tip toe around this shit.
Wassup Mikerophone I want to correct you that the Kyle Rudolph catch against the Saints happened in 2019 the 2017 loss was the one when Stefon Diggs caught the game winning touchdown over Marcus Williams they both were still heartbreaking losses for my Saints Fashoo
