You can't have it both ways. If he admits that he "misspoke", you can't blame that on people who believed what he wrote originally.
You say misspoke. I say realized what an idiot he was and changed his story. Tomato Tomahto.

I could go with that if he hadn't first said it correctly only to follow up with a misstatement.

OK, I'm done with this. tref is a big boy and can handle his own.

First of all, I really want the NUTMEG t-shirt. I know it is a state pride sort of thing, but I also have a Fighting Blue Hen T-Shirt from Deleware, and who doesn't own a S. Carolina Gamecock item?!??!!!
I would go with "Coach, that's the 5th on 11, is this their sub?" If the coach gets a little snarky, I'd say something like "Well, just thought I would ask". Several times the coach will just answer YES without thinking and we can get the game restarted quicker. Then a few minutes later, the coach realizes that they wanted SOMEONE ELSE to go in then subs that player in the game.
