This is a big joke! You can buy testosterone supplements @GNC & get andro cream online!

Way to destroy the very thing you gave so much up to salvage, Roger.

I 100% agree with every statement given about what a legal waste of time and money this is. Our nation has way bigger fish to fry.

But I hope Roger’s actions set the table for players to think differently the next time they consider going down the path he did. At the very least.

Pretty hard not to agree with this sentiment.

What Clemens did or did not inject in his butt is indeed a ludicrous inquiry for Congress, a body which is more than well acquainted with ridiculous endeavors. This “circus” however, is about maintaining the integrity of the process. Politicians and issues will come and go but when you take an oath to testify truthfully, that oath has to be enforced. Our entire system of justice depends on it.

Several years ago I read an article about Olympic athletes. The question was “If there were a pill that would guarantee a gold medal but shorten you life span to fifty years, would you take it” Well over 50% of them said yes – and that was just glory. Baseball players would not only attain glory, but riches as well. I’d probably do steroids as well. But it’s time for Clemens to come clean.

“Don’t roll your eyes, they’ll get stuck that way”…

Yes, it is more necessary for people to hold athletes accountable for not following the spirit of the rules of the game than it is to hold politicians accoutable for war-mongering and fiscal irresponsibility. Just look at the rating for ESPN vs. C-SPAN. I don’t think Congress will be inline for a 3 billion dollar local TV rights contract. Although, it might cut the deficit a bit.

“Yep, they got stuck.”

I’m still waiting for Gore, Cheney, and Bush to be tried for lying to congress as well about passing legislation they directly profit from. But I guess the steroid use of an athlete is much more important to the well being of the US than crooked politicians using the US government to make them wealthy. (eyes rolling so hard they hurt this time)

Mind boggling and depressing that our tax dollars are being wasted on this circus for a second time. Even if everything the Feds allege is true, the offense is trivial. End this now.

He lied to Congress. While I don’t agree with that, there are many people who think Congress is full of them. I don’t know, it’s just all messy.
