In reply to the discussion: Box Scores Show Trump Lied His Ass Off About Being a High School Baseball Legend [View all]PCIntern

OK, I played interscholastic tennis for my high school team. Either second singles or third singles was my position for three years on the team. I lost many more matches than I won. If I went public and stated that I was number one singles championship player in a variety of tournaments at least 300 people whom I know would come out of the woodwork and say thats a lie.
I mean, how can you lie about athletics when not only is it a matter of record within the school, but everybody on the team and everybody who watched the team is fully aware of how well or poorly you played?
Oh and by the way I did win Wimbledon one year I cant remember which year it was but I won it and I have the trophy somewhere in my attic to prove it.
