Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

Suzyn Waldman should describe his entrance into the courtroom.

I played golf with Roger once.

Top 5 rudest people I've ever met. Dude could sling the pill, though.

As I said in the Braves thread:

1. It was idiotic for Congress to be wasting its time on steroids in baseball in the first place.

2. That said, if Clemens committed perjury -- and I think it's more likely that OJ is innocent than Clemens -- then he should absolutely be indicted, tried, convicted, and jailed.

3. That said, it's inexcusable that it's taken TWO AND A HALF YEARS for them to get around to indicting him. If they had a case, they should have brought it forward years ago.

The thing I never understood about Clemens is why it seemed to take everybody (ie, the media) so long to figure out that he was juicing, especially in comparison to Bonds. People just seemed to take for granted that Bonds was hitting the needle, but somehow Clemens got a complete pass on it, even though it had been obvious that he'd been using since he went to Toronto in 97. Fading 34-year-old suddenly has his body explode and starts striking more batters out than ever? Yet it was what, six or seven more years before the media figured it out? Weird.

Clemens's attorney looks like Johnny Majors married to Wink Martindale:

I care because I have to explain the 90's to my children. Just because MLB turned a blind-eye, it doesn't make it ok. Steroids filled ballparks after a sickening labor strike in the early 90's. As s fan, I have to erase the summer of 1998 from my memory. Clemens deserves everything he gets, because he continues to lie. People overlooked Pettite and Giambi because they atleast told the truth. Even A-Roid, who lied for a decade, finally told the truth. He's also been given the proverbial pass. Clemens, Palmeiro, McGwire, Bonds, etc., have put a black-eye on the game. Not simply because they cheated, but because they LIED!

This doesn't mean he's guilty. Is he? Hell I don't know but lying and Congress go together like USCe football players and pumping gas.

Why on earth did his attorney allow him to testify. He wasn't even compelled to go before Congress, but did so anyway.

People made fun of Mark McGwire saying "I'm not here to talk about the past", but it was the 100% correct answer.

Exactly right. Same with Bonds. Can't purger yourself you don't say anything at all.
