How low can you go?

Roger Clemens gets called a liar by a politician. How low is that? That is funny, I don’t care who you are! (apologies to Larry the Cable Guy).
Somebody, though, is lying. Clemens is sweating like a stuck pig while he resembles a man with Alzheimer’s disease as he can’t remember if he attended a party with teammates or not. His wife has her life in shambles now because she took the drug once without the knowledge of her husband. Gimme a break.
McNamee is his own worst enemy because he has more lies than a politician running for a big political office. One after another keep popping up. But at least he appears cool, calm and collected.
And now Roger is worried his reputation will always be tarnished. No duh! Should have thought of that earlier when you popped of in the late 90’s to people like Pettite about usage. Roger needs to get Bill Clinton to offer him some good lying communication skills advice.
Simply for me, Roger is lying.
I hope Congress decides( this is a joke people) to make all the games free for this year until this mess is cleaned up.
Think about this, I haven’t gotten into the John Rocker talk about Selig knowing. I can’t wait to ride the #7 train this summer when I go to the Cards/Mets game in July. I can see for myself what Rocker was saying.
My rant.

What a moron. he is insulting everyone by continually saying he didn’t do anything. Pettite must have “misremembered” LOL… Wow! I don’t even care so much that he cheated - it’s the lying that gets me. I like Pettite a heck of a lot more than I do Clemens out of this. Admit when you were wrong and move on.

What really irks me about Clemens is his sense of entitlement; like the game, and society as a whole, owes him this huge debt of gratitude for everything he “did for the game”. I have news for you Roger; you did Jack for the game. It’s you who owes the game everything. Get over yourself.

What amazes me is how this became a Clemens/McNamee issue instead of a baseball vs. steroids/HGH issue. One congressman said something to the effect of ‘that is why we are here, for the children and the game of baseball’. Where was the national coverage of Pettite’s deposition? Probably a little easier than Roger’s without all the grandstanding being done by overpaid politicians. As far as Roger lying? Let’s just say that I would love to play poker with him, his body language and face gave him away before he even opened his mouth!

To me, the key really is Pettitte. He has nothing to gain by throwing Clemens under the bus.
