'09 HI LB Manti Te'o (Notre Dame Man)

[NDdomer2]

Don't do that ever again so close to a game.

mea culpa.

 

[PLACforever]

Don't do that ever again so close to a game.

Seriously, lol.
I was expecting, "Due to passport issue, Manti was left in South Bend."

Saturday can't get here quick enough.

 

[clashmore_mike]

Whew

We should have an injury/suspension/weird **** just happen thread, so we don't **** ourselves every time we open a players thread

 

[Buster Bluth]

Can ESPN say anything that doesn't come off as horribly rude?

Instead of "has an inexperienced secondary and possible depth concerns up front" they could easily have said something a bit more professional.

It would have been more professional and accurate to say something like "has an inexperienced secondary but an imposing front seven against the run."

Pretty sure our DL depth is better than 90% of college football so why bring that up at all. Also, all the other players got nothing but praise and accolades and they question Teo's decision to come back for his summary bit. Kind of ridiculous.

Ha. Funny the way you put that, but seriously an injury thread is not a bad idea. It's a little crazy that people have to apologize for posting legit news about our players because it panics the IE membership.

 

[IrishMoore1]

OMG

 

[irishfanjho15]

Jesus. Our captains are huge.

 

[condoms SUCk]

OMG

WOW, that's jaw dropping.

 

[Bobias]

That is one awesome picture, but I'm pretty sure that the camera angle has a ton to do with the size differential. Still this might become my new back ground simply due its epic size disproportion.

 

[Old Man Mike]

.... and our guys are linemen and theirs are backs.

.... still.... unleash the Beast!!

 

[HawaiianIrish]

DAYUM Our boys are yoked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Coach LONGO you deserve a cold beer.

 

[irishog77]

OMG

I wonder what position that guy on the right behind the Navy captains plays?

 

[GBdomer]

Is that Lou Hotlz behind Navys guys?

 

[FLDomer]

Is that Lou Hotlz behind Navys guys?

LMAO!!

 

[GBdomer]

LMAO!!

my man lol. I'd rep you if I could.

Here you go my man

 

[Me2SouthBend]

OMG

ND was immediately up 14 points after the coin flip. The Navy players went back to the sidelines and asked the coach wtf he had gotten them into.

Look at the camera man at the end and the ref's hands at the near side. This picture has all of the complementary angle attributes, but still may be photoshopped. And white makes you bigger.

I am 5'11" and I have stood next to Manti on a number of occasions. And he is every bit of 6'2", but he is not seven feet tall!

Nice picture, get one like that from this week or next week and I will be happy.

 

[RuntheBall]

Art Rooney correct? He is Ambassador to Ireland and owner of Steelers (duh?) so itd make sense

As you said to me in another thread...Imagery!

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Imagry is king; King Kong was three feet, six inches tall.

 

[ant80]

Read on BP that his girlfriend passed away battling Leukemia. My condolences.

 

[beryirish]

I saw TP tweet something that seemed like something happened. Now I know...that is horrible to hear.

Thoughts and prayers to Manti, the family, and friends.

 

[Bogtrotter07]

Go dtuga Dia a thaispeáint ar a solas suthain orthu . . .

Let us pray.

 

[peoriairish]

Will play on Saturday.

 

[TexasForever]

Manti is everything you could hope to look up to in an athlete (and a person).

 

[woolybug25]

I hope Manti can harness this energy and play this week for them. Not for us as fans or even the university. This is one game I hope he plays for his loved ones lost. I'm always rooting for Manti, but this week i'll be rooting even more.
