Ya know I haven't followed Roger and don't know much about him. How ever the scum in Congress are far worst than this man....oh my he lied! So the Congress full of liars, cheats, crooks, are going to indict this man for what Congress does every day, lie.
The table should be turned around, indict Congress! Congress is on Steroids, bunch losers.
Go Roger, what ever they find or do you have my support!
A disgrace to the Yankee uniform, and real HOF's like Nolan Ryan. I hope he hoes to jail.
I agree completely with Duffy B. If it's illegal to lie to the Congress Beasts, then it should be illegal for them to lie to us.
What they do every day is a million times worse than anything Roger could have possibly done. They are the ones that should be indicted.
The era of HGH and steroids has blackened baseball and all the players who either used or stood by and allowed steroids to be used. No one from this era should ever be inducted into the Hall of Fame. Also, if you charge Clemons, then charge them all. McGuire made his sobbing confession prior to this season, when all knew that he, Sosa, Bonds, and too many to name were using steroids. It is time that baseball blacklist them all. If Rose and the Chicago Black Sox can be blacklisted for gambling then these guys should be for the enhancement these steroids provided to their abilities. Steroids probably played a greater role in games won then gambling ever has in games lost.
Nothing serious will happen to him, no matter what transpires. Let's just do the right them and remove him and the rest of the steroid users from the record books. They did not obtain their stats legitimately and they should not stand. As far as I'm concerned, Roger Maris still holds the major league home run record and there was never a pitcher named Clemens. Not only is it the right thing, it's probably the only action available that would have faze him.
I agree 100%. Bob Gibson, Newcombe, Whitey Ford, Tom Seaver, Maris, Mantle, Aaron, Mays, McCovey, and countless more would have been supermen had they used these drugs, but they didn't and their Natural Talent made them great. How could Sosa, McQuire, Bonds, Clemens, and the like ever look one of the old players in the eye and say they broke their records??? More importantly, how can baseball count these records knowing that they were achieved through drug use???
Wow...Clemens lied to Congress ? How many times has Congress lied to you ? Sounds like a double standard...
The latest news "Roger;s glad this happend". Good, Roger. So are a lot of baseball fans.
