Yes, it is...That is kind of the definition...
If your opinion is that 'it is a mistake to draft X player' and then he does well and you change your opinion to 'that really was a good pick' or the facts prove themselves to differ from what your opinion was then your original opinion on the matter was wrong...
If you think 'it wont be dangerous to jump off of this bridge into the water' then you break your neck, your opinion turned out to be wrong.

At that point, it's no longer an opinion, is it?

You
are making arguments that are opinions...like 'x player is a mistake' etc...that kind of opinion (or argument) can be debated...(Google some opinion papers)...It is called Logic 101
You
aren't here saying 'I love the smell of roses after they are jammed into my boyfriend's asshole' which is the kind of opinion that is not arguable without knowing whether or not you are telling the truth.
You are confusing the former with the latter.
