According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedp.com\/article\/2020\/08\/joe-biden-penn-athletics-football-archmere-2020-election-delaware\">Daily Pennsylvanian<\/a>, he had a grade point average (GPA) of 1.9 at the time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When my first semester grades came out, my mom and dad told me I wouldn\u2019t be playing spring football,&#8221; he wrote in his book.<\/p>\n<p>However, he seemed to contradict this while speaking in Syracuse, NY, on Thursday, reported <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\/bidens-delaware-football-claim-made-speech-intercepted\">Fox News<\/a>. The 79-year-old said of his late wife, &#8220;I met her on spring break and fell head over heels in love with her and gave up a starting job on the football team in Delaware to come up\u2026 every weekend because I couldn&#8217;t stay away.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t the first time Biden&#8217;s athletic career with his alma mater has come into question. At a 2012 campaign stop, he falsely claimed to have played in the 1963 game when the Blue Hens beat the Ohio University Bobcats.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I just double-checked my memory, you know, you get to my age, and you&#8217;re not so sure you remember. You know, your glory days look more glorious than they really were,&#8221; then-vice president Biden. &#8220;I went back on the internet, and I just want you to know that I came here on Oct. 19, 1963, and we beat you Bobcats, 29-12.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The University of Delaware&#8217;s sports information department told the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.huffpost.com\/entry\/vice-president-biden-caug_n_1975371\">Huffington Post<\/a> in 2012 that Biden only briefly played on the freshman team, and didn&#8217;t participate in the 1963 Ohio game.<\/p>\n<p>In the same Syracuse speech, Biden also made the false claim that gas prices were &#8220;over $5&#8221; when he entered the presidential office, when it was actually $2.39, according to Townhall.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u200b\u200b<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In his latest gaffe, President Joe Biden during a Thursday speech claimed that he gave up his &#8220;starting job&#8221; on the University of Delaware football team to be with<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1715779,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[547],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1715776","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-bongino-report"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1715776","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1715776"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1715776\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1715779"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1715776"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1715776"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1715776"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
