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.
He’s lying — again. Its who he is.
When he says “at the time you didn’t think anything of it”, that’s complete BS. Maybe his fellow travellers in the media will buy it but those of us who have played football and have been on the receiving end of hard hits know that, when your bell gets rung on the field, you’re immediately aware of it, assuming of course you’re still in a concious state.
If you have a concussion, you know it.
Might be the nausea, or the throwing up, or the blinding heaache. Or the feeling of being sucked back into your own head when you "come to". The last one is particularly unique.
"I think I have a concussion." Ha. That's up there with "I think I might be pregnant." You either are, or you aren't.
