Does it not make sense that they never met, never skyped, etc? Yes

Is Manti hiding something? That is pretty obvious

In the end does it really matter? That's debatable, but I could care less. I judge him by what he does on the football field.
I posted many skype references long before the one you decided to quote.

It does matter to an NFL team who judges their employees off of their character. And if you are basing it on what he does on the field, that's not that good either.

As intriguing as this situation is, the posts regarding sexual preference and religion are out of bounds. This has been stated once already.

Find a way to talk about this without involving sex and religion, or we'll shut it down and move on to something else.

Last warning, fellas.

Yet again I was responding to THAT post.

I think based off the number of criminals playing in the NFL this won't really concern a lot of them too much.

Amount of criminals

There are 1,700 or so employees playing in the NFL. We here of maybe 10-15 of those 1,700 get in trouble. There are far more companies in the world employing "criminals" than the NFL

You are also including things such as:

Charged with violating rules on car window tint and giving a false name to police in

That's a criminal offense to you? Read the list of things being arrested for before you call everyone a criminal

He obviously told his parents that he was close with this girl and that she flew to Hawaii to see him. Otherwise, why would his father say that she flew to Hawaii and that it happened to be during the times that Manti was there? Why did his mother make the comment that this young lady could become her daughter-in-law? Was it the father or Manti who said that Manti met her after the Stanford game? Didn't Manti say that he talked to her for eight hours every day? He said he would fall asleep listening to her and wake up with the phone on his chest listening to her breathe. I still think Manti is in on this scam or the whole family is just plain stupid to believe all this when neither one of them has seen the girl. If she told him she would meet him somewhere, and she never showed up at any of the places she mentioned, he should have had the common sense to realize that something wasn't right.

Wow. Just wow. So those things aren't criminal? To use your words: "What world are you living in?"

How do you get arrested without committing a crime?

If it's a law, and you violated it, you're a criminal. Plain and simple.

There are varying degrees, hence the misdemeanor and felony charges difference.

But to say getting a DUI, even though you don't get in a wreck or kill someone means it's not a crime is absolutely, positively ridiculous.

I have gotten a DUi. I am FAR from being considered a criminal.

You call someone like me a criminal, you are on planet Mars
