Manti Te'o's father blacklists Honolulu Star-Advertiser

... For running a picture of Te'o missing a tackle on the front page. Unbelievable.

Another person who thinks that just because they make themselves available to the press, the press works for them.

 

He's lucky they only ran one.

 

I'm trying to summon up the capacity to care about this ... and I just can't do it.

 

I am assuming he keeps this blacklist up when Manti starts a charity and holds his first fund-raiser golf tournament.

 

Cry me a river.

I think half the country's newspapers ran that with a Notre Dame sidebar. Maybe it was the hed that raised his hackles, hanging in space above him where Eddie Lacy's vapor trail floated in the Miami Gardens breeze.

I agree that his blacklist will last until Te'o has a charity golf tournament or anything else that needs us to spread the word.

 

He'll be a nobody in three years. Nothing lost.

 

Maybe he should have just made the tackle?

 

Is Manti's father the HOA president?

 

Is it a legal blacklist?

 

He's lividly pissed.

 

And I hope whoever gets that email or phone call tells them to take a three-hour tour ...
