JC Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I've never taken a look at Manti's numbers, but he doesn't get a lot of solo tackles. A lot of assists. He may fall like a lead ball on draft day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look how long it took many SEC teams to add a black basketball player to the roster, WAY after the Armed Forces had integrated and after the Civil Rights amendment had passed. How many openly gay men play team sports like basketball, football or baseball? Can't name one and being openly gay hasn't been a big deal in society for quite some time.

|SF2| Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I don't think this a huge red flag. I don't think you can even get a $10 fine in the NFL for lying about an imaginary girlfriend. Its not a deal breaker. That said the easiest explanation is usually the correct one and my guess is he made the entire thing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't break any laws, beat on anyone, stab anyone, bring a gun into a club, get caught on a drug test or anything of that nature. Amazing thing was it took this long for someone to figure it out.
