so if he lets things go people whine and if he fights back people whine...whats a guy to do

Clemens can do all the public whining he wants, but if he REALLY wants to discredit Mc's claim, he should just work up the balls and sue him. Everything else besides that is simple posturing.

It's very sad. Roger Clemens got greedy. He used to be thought of as the best pitcher ever. Now he's just the pitching equivalent of Barry Bonds. What a waste. Why couldn't he have just aged gracefully? Why ruin a perfectly respectable career with cheating?

If I'm the Rocket, I use the Michael Vick situation to help me. Why would McNamee lie if it's in his best interests to tell the truth? Well, why did Vick lie?

Liars lie. We'll prove McNamee is a liar. Period.

What do you mean "we", kemo sabe? Are you part of the Clemens Legal Defense Squad? If you are, don't you have better things to do than post here? Like, say, trying to prove that your "Liars lie" observation isn't really on comment on Clemens himself?

Postman, don't you find this very amusing that Rog is going on 60 minutes with a CLOSE FRIEND, Mike Wallace???? Do you really believe that ole buddy Mike is going to ask any damaging questions??? Hell no! Guess what???? Rog will get paid to be on the show!!! Wow!!!! Are we surprised????

How would you guys feel if a good freind of yours got busted with drugs in the trunk of his car and in an attempt to aviod jail dropped your name as someone he sold the drugs to. Now the whole nation thinks you are a phony and the only proof they have is the testimony of a guy whom was caught with the illegal substances.

Roger is INNONCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY, all of you who think otherwise are just hypocrits waiting to happen.

Sure it looks bad for him because another friend of his, AP, confessed to his connection with the busted drug dealer, but until AP comes out and says Rog was in on it too, OR we get some actual physical evidence that Rog did it I think it is a criminal that the public has convicted the man.

I would be willing to bet that all of us at one time or another have had someone tell lies about us. It doesnt matter what their motivation is, unless they have proof to back it up we all should reserve judgement, if not for Rogs sake, then for our own.

PS-the comment about Mcanamee having a wife and kids and he wasnt going to jail for Roger is just lame. HE WAS GOING TO GO TO JAIL BECAUSE HE BROKE THE LAW, not because he was friends with Roger Clemens. That has the be the dumbest thing I have read in a long while.

WAKE UP PEOPLE. WHY IS THAT MOST ARE SO WILLING TO CONDEM BARRY BONDS BUT SO WILLING TO ACCEPT ROGER CLEMONS? THEY BOTH DID IT...DOES IT MATTER THAT ONE IS BLACK AND THE MEDIA/SPORTS NATION CAN'T STAND HIM AND THE OTHER IS WHITE AND MEDIA/SPORTS NATION LOVES HIM...NO IT DOESN'T...WAKE UP...THEY BOTH USED IT AND SO DID A WHOLE LOT OF OTHERS. MLB KNEW IT, YOU KNEW IT, THE WORLD KNEW IT BUT NOBODY CARED BECAUSE IT WAS EXCITING TO SEE ALL THOSE HOMERUNS AND OLD FARTS THROWING 95MPH PITCHES ALL THE TIME...ALL OF THOSE WHO SAY SOMETHING NOW ARE HYPOCRITES!!!

I've always wondered about Clemens. He's even worse than Barry Bonds in my opinion cause he thinks he got by with something. Bonds just doesnt care.

As long as this stuff is so intertwined with the corporate world, this will be around. Adults have got to take the kids aside and tell them its just not worth it, but its really hard to prove to them that THAT'S true, when you see the multi zillion dollar endorsements going to the cheaters.

Find your regional sports and support them. They are going to be a lot cleaner because aint no one making the big bucks.

I do not know if the Rocket is guilty or not. However, I always thought you went downhill when you get older. I think its MLB's fault. They new it was going on and chose to do nothing about it. If his lawyers & PIs discredit the trainers testimony; I do not think it will help his "legacy". Opinions have already been established. I can not unerstand how or why this is any different from Barry Bonds!!

to wake-up: no one like roger clemons. he and bonds are both *******.

Mr Sanders, Its idiots like you that think that obeying authority and telling the truth and not going to jail for some hypocritical mega millionaire is somehow wrong.

Reply

I never said that, I am saying we should reserve judgement for we dont know what really happened. For we all know Rog and Mac had a falling our prior to this and Mac was looking to get even, OR Roger is actually manufacturing the stuff in his garage.

Both Clemens and Bonds deserve their day in court. Until then I think we all should just enjoy the show and not put ourselves in situation where we will look like idiots by convicting these people before we know all the facts.

So calling me an idiot says more about you and not me.

What good would it be for McNamee to make all that up? He knew he had to tell the truth or he would go to jail. That is not something you play around with. He could have easily left Rogers name out but he knew he would go to jail if he was not honest. Who would take that chance? Roger Clemens knows that McNamee can't prove it so he gets all upset and becomes "believable" to the press. Do you think Barry Bonds is lying? People Lie when they know for sure they can get away with it and there is no proof that the actual steroid went in his body. McNamee made no money from the press and even turned down 7 figures to tell the truth.
