Speaking of erroneous. But yes, let's ignore that. Shall we call it a lie?

Memory is inherently biased. That's just the way memory works. It's not locked whole and frozen in time in our synapses. "Memories" are constantly rewritten and adapted. Then there's the whole metaphysics side of what your senses are sending to your brain isn't objective reality in the first place. I don't really expect you to understand that.
I understand now that you have been cornered you're trying to play armchair psychologist and wiggle your way out of your previous assertion. Something you neither have a degree in nor are qualified to do. AKA - Diversion tactic.

I also don't think I know better than you about your life, I just know that you are an inveterate liar, with the evidence to support this position constantly growing, so I don't blindly believe your stories about it.
There you go again. Trying to undermine my honesty while providing no evidence to support it as per usual. If you're going to keep saying that, often times repeatedly in several posts, at least lay some cards on the table instead of repeating meaningless rhetoric. Your crude attempt to undermine those who have brought a lot of evidence to the table is lame. But we have seen it a lot lately in politics. If you keep repeating the same thing over and over again even when providing zero evidence to support it, people will begin to believe it.
DOJ quietly shelves Biden autopen investigation that Trump demanded
President Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed former President Joe Biden used an autopen without knowing the contents of what he signed.
The Justice Department shelved an investigation into former President Joe Biden's use of an autopen, a person briefed on the matter told NBC News on Wednesday.
Justice Department pardon attorney Ed Martin, the former “weaponization” czar, opened the probe while he was interim U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia. It wound down recently under Jeanine Pirro, the current U.S. attorney, who is a longtime Trump ally and former Fox News host.
The autopen case was never presented to a grand jury, unlike the case that Pirro's office tried to bring forward last month against six members of Congress who participated in a social media video that urged members of the military and intelligence communities not to follow unlawful orders.
It is difficult to bring a criminal case when there is not even a readily identifiable and applicable criminal statute, the person briefed on the matter said.
The White House referred an inquiry about the matter to the Justice Department. A spokesman for Pirro’s office, citing Justice Department policy, said the office does not confirm or deny the existence of criminal probes.
President Donald Trump in June demanded a wide-ranging investigation into Biden and officials in his administration after he claimed that Biden's aides used "autopen" signatures to hide Biden's "cognitive decline."
The Republican-led House Oversight Committee investigated Biden's use of an autopen, writing in a report in October that some executive actions he signed with an autopen were "illegitimate," because he suffered from mental decline and could have been unaware of the contents.
Trump, who has repeatedly claimed that Biden used an autopen on many of his executive orders, said in November that he was canceling executive orders signed using Biden’s autopen.
It's unclear how often Biden used an autopen, as there is no official government record of when it is used. In a statement in June, Biden responded to Trump’s claims, saying, "Let me be clear: I made the decisions during my presidency.”
"I made the decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation, and proclamations," he said in the statement. "Any suggestion that I didn’t is ridiculous and false."
Biden's use of the autopen was investigated as Trump has directed the Justice Department to investigate a number of his political foes since he returned to office.
The Justice Department tried to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James. A federal judge tossed out the criminal charges against both in November.
It also sent out criminal subpoenas in January to various state and local government offices in Minnesota, including Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey, claiming they conspired to impede law enforcement during its immigration operations there. Neither have been charged, and legal experts have widely condemned an investigation that they say is based on a flimsy legal premise and has a chilling effect on free speech.
I don't know enough to debate you about the QB's that will be entering the draft next season but I am a big OSU fan. The only thing I try to keep in mind is that Sayin was a red shirt freshman. I think he performed extremely well considering that fact. This upcoming season will go a long way in telling me at least what that kid may have moving forward. He certainly looked promising but as first year starter where he goes from there is a mystery. But hey, a lot of these kids are young and will continue to develop. Where they go from where they are is something way over my pay grade. I guess that's why NFL GM's make the big bucks and I don't.

Could DW be a QB for another 7 years? Well, that's possible but how many of those over 30 QB's have had 2 Achilles injuries? He's had other injuries besides that also. I wouldn't bet DW will be a QB into his late 30's.
And while I agree with you to a very great extent, for any sane person it's obvious that a lot of this division and chaos begins with what is being said and posted from within The White House and at Mar-a-Lago. Once a contagious disease starts, an epidemic will soon follow if no controls or constraints are put in place to contain it.
And the question could become, if Monkin doesn't develop some of that "1st round" talent will it be the fault of Monkin for not developing that talent or will it be the talking heads were wrong about their evaluations on some of those picks?
If you eliminate major costs you foresee while working, then things are simpler, so I agree. We have set up savings and investments every pay. We "practiced" budgeting before retirement while we only received one payday a month. We are comfortably set. More than that, we are happy with what we have; my wife is a blessing because we share priorities. The Shaker motto was good advice that smacks of Transcendentalism: "Simplify, simplify." Control what you can.
As I said earlier, simple is the name of the game, especially if you plan on doing most of it yourself. Leave the complicated to the people who can afford personal secretaries, a team of accountants, and lawyers. Complicated takes a mental toll if you plan to do it yourself.
888 keeps insisting tax payers don't pay anything for National Parks. Lies are lies even when one doesn't realize one is doing it.
I made an error which I am happy to accept and acknowledge - something most won't do on here. And if anyone was to keep a score of the lies and the misinformation that is spammed on these boards, then one group of posters win by a land slide and it isn't the guys who don't like Trump.
MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office filed charges against an ICE agent in connection with the January shooting of Julio Sosa-Celis, a Venezuelan national, in Minneapolis.
Christian J. Castro, 52, is facing four counts of second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon and one count of falsely reporting a crime.
ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis
The backstory:
The ICE-involved shooting took place near the 600 block of 24th Avenue North just before 7 p.m. on Jan. 14.
Initial reporting detailed federal agents were pursuing a man in a vehicle who had crashed into a snowbank. The man then ran to a nearby home, where a pursuing agent caught up with him and attempted to make an arrest.
An "altercation" between the agent and suspect then ensued, which led to two other people arriving from a nearby apartment, and all three attacking the officer – one armed with a broomstick, according to DHS.
"Fearing for his life and safety as he was being ambushed by three individuals, the officer fired a defensive shot to defend his life," DHS initially claimed.
Julio Sosa-Celis, 24, a Venezuelan national, was taken to the hospital for treatment of a non-life-threatening gunshot wound, while Alfredo Alejandro Aljorna, 26, was also arrested in its aftermath.
Both men were charged with assaulting a federal agent in the aftermath of the altercation, but the DOJ later requested the charges be dismissed with prejudice, writing in a motion that, "newly discovered evidence in this matter is materially inconsistent with the allegations in the complaint affidavit."
Big picture view:
The shooting occurred one week after the fatal shooting of Renee Good by ICE officers and ten days before the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by federal officers. ICE agents under federal investigation
Dig deeper:
The U.S. Attorney’s Office later opened a criminal investigation into two ICE officers after video evidence allegedly showed the agents’ sworn testimony included "untruthful statements."
Court filings filed after the shooting showed the ICE officers’ accounts of the moments leading up to the shooting differed significantly from testimony provided by the two defendants and multiple eyewitnesses.
SoS is based on the previous year's results (which itself takes into account it's own SoS), but each team has turned over as much as 25-35% of its roster and 30% of all teams have new head coaches, staffs, and systems.
So, it sounds good, but there really isn't much you can reliably take away from it. It's predicting this year's corn crop based on last year's tomatoes.
According to most on draft day, this guy was massively overdrafted, and supposedly not on any team's radar.
I think this just reinforces that most draftniks & sites just really don't know and that reality is disguised by the ability to pick a lot of low-hanging "no-brainer" fruit in drafts. That said, the same applies to all front offices as well, given how many misses there are each year.
They're making a guess on future performance in one system against higher quality talent based on past performances in other systems against decidedly lower talent.... sometimes you'll hit, sometimes you won't.
