have you been following the manti te'o story? this is something else. apparently te'o, a well-known college football player, was in a relationship with a woman he met online. but it turned out that -- and i might not have the exact details here. but it turned out that the woman was bruce willis and he was dead the whole time. something like that. essentially what we know is this. manti te'o is a senior linebacker at notre dame. he's a great player. he had a sad story. in his september, his girlfriend, a 22-year-old at stanford, passed away. of course, the media ran away with the story of the football hero overcoming personal tragedy. they love that stuff. the only problem is it turned out she never existed. she was a made up person. some people play fantasy football. manti te'o plays fantasy people, i guess. [ laughter ] what we don't know is who made her up. was it manti, some kind of a prank? maybe it was a combination of both. maybe he initially fell for it and then was too embarrassed to admit he had been had. that would be my guess. but te'o releas

youa student is a 3.7, we don't know what the student's strengths are, the math/science kid, mew mantiesat gpa, is a weighted or unweighted. high schools weight gpas, so an advanced placement class, they give that a extra point. sometimes, high schools give an extra point, sometimes they give just a fraction of a point. it's hard to understand what that gpa really means. gerri: the number itself doesn't tell a lot. the admissions officers look at the grades over the course of your high school experience; right? they look at where you excelled, where you did well out, there could be a change overtime and grades got better as years went op. >> right. a student with a 3 #.5, that doesn't tell you if they started a 3.0 and ended at the 4.0, looks great, working harder, or is it the reverse. also, what's included in the gpa in terms of courses? are they conning physical education? some high schools do that. that can inflate the gpa. it's not accurate. gerri: reason it bris it down. let's talk about what colleges look for. rigor? i have no idea what that means. >> to see if students take the m

been to condemn the comments but then the news that not just manti te'o but the questions do you like girls and are you married and who are you dating and studiously plus? not only immoral and screwed up by illegal. you cannot ask that. a couple of players who came out of the closet after retirement they said the nfl asks this for decades. that is how they talk to you. it is partly to dehumanize because they realize you are hours now and we control you. have the right to know everything about you. then you are ours to molded into as we say. it is a good that the players are breaking out but the nfl has a long way to go. despite the immediate condemnation, but michael jordan is a interesting character because we should support athletes to be political but not slamming athletes that don't choose to be. but the idea is political freedom people should have the right to speak out and not lose their job and also if that is where they are. but also a michael jordan is not your typical athlete but -- with the fortune 500 company that runs a division of nike and what they do in southeast asia,

. >> do you think the last draft is getting this kind of heat because of the manti te'o, that's why leagueed to get this out there? and also, if the players are asked, what about using the line, none of your business? and why wouldn't that work? >> well, you really don't want to tell a potential employer, somebody that you really want to work for, it's a childhood dream that you've been chasing, you don't want to give them any bad impressions. you want to represent yourself to the best of your ability and let them know exactly who you are because it's something you're going to be working intimately with for several years. i don't think that's an appropriate answer even though it's not an appropriate question to ask. so it is really tough for these young guys, but we're trying to do everything that we're doing with athletes, scott fujita, chris kluwe, when an athlete does come out, and they're going to have to come out in their time when they're ready, that they have a support group behind them. >> brendon ayanbadejo, good to tuck to you. see you on twitter. >>> he lied to her, he cheated o

. >> how much, if any, was the manti te'o distraction? was it a distraction internally?sn't. it wasn't because he never showed that it distracted the way he led all year. in other words he was the first in the locker room and he was the first on the field. all of his actions as it related to his preparation never changed. and so we didn't see anything outwardly that would say we have got an issue here. and, obviously, alabama had a lot to do with him not playing quite as well as we played but it did that to all of the players on the team. but he handled himself in a manner that, you know, left us no reason to believe that he would be ready to play. >> do you think, coach, if you were talking to an nfl gm and you probably are, is there any reason because of that manti te'o episode that they should draft him lower than they were thinking about drafting him? is there anything about his character that we learned from that that would concern a coach or a gm? >> i think everything is based upon a body of work. in my three years with him, i did not have a better teammate, a bet

the large shortfall of employment relative to its maximum level has imposed huge yurdens on all too manty american households and represents a substantial cost. in addition, prolonged weakness could harm the economy's potential for years to come. the long-term unemployed can see their skills you road, making these workers less attractive to employers. if these jobless workers were to become less employable, the natural rate of unemployment might rise or to the extent that they leave the labor force, we could see a persistently lower rate of labor force participation. in addition, the slow recovery has depressed the pace of capital accumulation. it also may have hindered new business and innovation. the developments would have an adverse effect on structural productivity. in contrast to the large gap between actual and maximum employment, inflation, apart from fluctuation due to energy and other commodity prices, has been running for some time now a little below the rate of two percent per year that insistent with the federal reserve's dual mandate. the committee anticipates that inflation
