Did Biden really play college football?
I think Ohio would be mad if they found out Biden never played college football after bragging his team beat them in 1963. The year Biden said he was almost arrested in Ohio. Biden was never there in 1963.
Truth is Biden never played for University of Deleware football.
All them Biden college football stories were just Biden folklore made up by Biden.
There is only one mention of Biden at the University web site and it's a quote by Biden coming in and playing for Scotty Duncan his freshman year in 1961. Link here hope it works: http://www.udel.edu/udaily/2009/sep/champs090508.html
It's just a quote from Biden. If you check the yearbook in 1961 and look at the freshman football team roster photo with names I can't find Biden. Duncan is there as freshman coach.
Link to University of Deleware yearbook 1961, check page 162: http://dspace.udel.edu:8080/dspace/bitstream/handle/19716/5674/1961_06_Sports.pdf?sequence=7
Also no mention of Biden in 61' 62' 63' 64' football roster posted at fighting hens college almanac fan base :

I picked year 1963 since Biden mentioned it a couple weeks ago in Ohio about him and his team beating Ohio , almost arrested etc..
Also in Biden's own book he mentions not wanting to play college football so he can travel weekends to visit gf/ wife.
Since Biden been stealing speeches that forced him out of the 1988 presidential run (kinnock scandal) and Biden caught plagiarism in college. I think he never played College football.
Just a hunch. It sure would tick off Ohio if he was never there in 1963.
You would think if the VP of USA was a halfback at a college there would be a photo, even stats like yardage etc. nothing on Biden.
Just saying....thanks
OTOH now we know biteden is a liar, good thing we found out so soon...
Tackling Dummy...hahaha...love it. That would explain a lot!
Thanks for the link.
I checked the yearbooks for 61’ 62’ 63’ 64’ and Biden wasn’t on any of the football teams. It’s strange Biden would tell such tall tales with yearbook’s laying around.
I’m not sure about Beckel but I’m sure Biden didn’t play
It’s nice of the people at Breitbart to do a story.
WIN ONE FOR THE FIBBER: BIDEN MISLEADS OHIO ON COLLEGE FOOTBALL CAREER
You might have the true story with Biden drunk.
Not sure how Biden got away with his college football stories. He been
telling football stories at every college campaign stop.
I hope next time he is in Ohio someone calls him out on his football fantasy.
Biden could be the poster boy for a sick joke we used to tell as kids:
"Mrs. Anderson, can little Johnny come out and play baseball with us."
"Boys! That's cruel. You know little Johnny has no arms and no legs."
"Oh, but we don't need him to play third base for us, we need him to be third base."
Thanks, good idea. If moderator reads this please change title as stated by alancarp. Thanks!
Biden is a joke.
Would be funny if someone in Ohio asked him his
jersey number next time he is there.
They told Biden he is the President....and he believes them.
Re #1; He played with no helmet or cup.
No brains so he didn’t need to protect anything.
No balls so no need for a cup.
He probably did put his bottle of Brylcreem in a safe.
FACT CHECK...FACT CHECK!!....PICK UP THE YELLOW CURTESY PHONE PLEASE....
think were talking “pants on fire” here...
When this guy writes his memoirs, he'll talk about the time he played in the Rose Bowl in 2013.
Yep, someone is looking for Biden jersey number at Ask.com
And coming up empty.
Nice!
Bidens son.
