If he did, it’s from knocking his head on the sofa arm as he flops down to watch another afternoon of ESPN and Housewives.

Exactly. There is no way he’d even touch a pigskin. He was probably playing Nerf football with a bunch of little kids during one of the Easter egg hunts at the White House.

He's a narcissist and just can't help it. Wonder if he's ever been preggers or had morning sickness? Woman's vote don'tcha know?

No way a nerf ball would cause a concussion.

Sorry, Barry, you can’t blame your ignorance and stupidity on concussions. That pigskin won’t fly.

There’s no way those limp, skinny, girly wrists ever played football.

He probably meant soccer, which foreigners sometimes call football, and hit the ball with his head a few times.

Understand what a pathological liar is. Basically, a pathological liar is someone who tells lies habitually, chronically and compulsively. It has simply become a way of life for this person, to make up things for a variety of reasons and eventually, the truth becomes uncomfortable while weaving whoppers feels right to them. This kind of lying tends to develop early on in life, often as a response to difficult home or school situations that seemed to resolve better if the child lied.

He fits the bill.
