But you only implied you gave everyone potatoes... *inhale*

"Let's" technically takes a subjunctive case which is a case used for hypothetical, uncertain, wistful or otherwise not entirely true cases. Therefore just using 'Let's you indicated you intended to give everyone potatoes, but it doesn't say if you actually succeeded in your grade potato supply to all the players. For all we know, you could've left the potatoes at home or lost them on the way. If you said 'I give everyone potatoes' that's indicative, which meant it actually happened and therefore everyone having potatoes = true. But since it's subjunctive you cannot be certain that having potatoes = true. Therefore there's is no guarantee everyone actually has potatoes, even though you wanted to give them out to everyone. Therefore, there might not be potatoes, therefore the potato is a lie.
