Biden says he was offered an appointment to the Naval Academy to play football but turned it down because he would have to play behind Roger Staubach who ended up winning the Heisman Trophy later.

In fact, he said the appointment was in 1965 - well, Staubach went there in 1961 - he actually graduated in 1965 and went straight to Vietnam.

Fact check says - Biden was never offered an appointment to the Naval Academy - as well Biden never had any record of a football career in High School - certainly not one worthy enough to be a quarterback to back up Roger Staubach.

I just don't how many more stories this guy can stand up and tell like this and get a pass - all of these stories are easy to verify - and if you are going to lie - at least make the math line up - even that part doesn't add up.

From the speech - it appears even the Cadets were laughing because they knew it was made up.
