Too bad we are not close enough to shmooze over this while knocking back our coffee this morning.

Clemens was a liar, probably a s...Have to disagree. Clemens was a liar, probably a steroid user, and a great pitcher. Seven Cy Youngs. A brutally hard worker. The magnitude of his lie must be kept in perspective. He was not a child molestor or member of Al Quada. <br />To a degree, athletes do get heavier and stronger with age up to a certain point. So he did some steroids. So did many others with no Cy Youngs. Mitchell report named 129 players admitted, implicated, or suspended for steroids. Real number much higher. Bud Selig and baseball bigwhigs couldn't wait to have pictures taken with Mcguire and Sosa. Great for profits. When public opinion changed they changed their tune. Hypocritical front runners. Clemens lied to a bunch of congressional professional liars to protect his reputation. Evaluated the one witness against him as not credible. And he stuck to it when nobody believed him. Oddly enough, that takes more guts than caving in and telling the truth. Some of us have done the same to protect our reps and families. We'll never know how many players did steroids. When in Rome do as the Romans do. Crybabies like Aaron never had the option. Babe Ruth probably would have eaten them like hot dogs if available. I'm far being a Clemens lover, but he didn't deserve the avalanche of shit that hit him and weathered the storm.genemeshbanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01999064627089237700noreply@blogger.com
