Should Brett Favre Come Back?

Brett Favre, you like the offseason spotlight, don’t you? Brett Favre’s desire to come back from retirement (Golf isn’t that good, I guess) has immediately taken precedence over any of the current NFL news. I think it’s safe to say that the guy who looked not so spectacular for a few years until last year [...]

McNamee Lawyer: Bush Could Pardon Clemens

Brian McNamee’s lawyer may have overstepped his bounds when he alleged that President George W. Bush could pardon Roger Clemens should The Rocket be indicted.
Richard Emery, McNamee’s lawyer, said that Republicans at the Congressional hearing were more harsh on McNamee than Clemens because Clemens is a friend of the Bush family.
“It would be the easiest [...]

Strike Three for Clemens

The plan was good and it almost worked…until Roger opened his mouth. On a day where everything could have worked perfectly, Roger Clemens simply crashed and burned.
Let me set the record straight: after watching the whole process before the Congress, I’m convinced: Clemens is a liar. Bad, that was too bad to see one of [...]

Congressional Hearing Coverage

Congressional hearings are now over and Roger Clemens and Brian McNamee are done being questioned. Clemens and McNamee both were grilled on numerous discrepancies in their testimonies.
Andy Pettitte testified privately that he and Roger Clemens talked about steroid use in the past. Clemens claimed in the hearings that Pettitte must have “misremembered” their conversation, and [...]

Standing Behind Clemens

For as long as I can remember watching Red Sox baseball, I only had room in my heart for one player. Whenever a player leaves the Sox, I usually switch my spotlight to another. In the past, this spot has been held by former outfielder Trot Nixon and looks to be soon taken over [...]

More Drugs in Baseball

Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds, the best pitcher and best hitter, in all of baseball, maybe ever, have proven how rampant drugs are in baseball. It’s disgusting. And horrible for baseball. What other sport has had this level of disgrace?.. And survived? And it all comes back to Canseco.
What if Canseco and others were right [...]

Roger Clemens’ Fight Challenges MLB’s Credibility

By denying and totally refuting anything that Brian McNamee has said, Roger Clemens is challenging the very foundation of the Mitchell Report. McNamee provided a lot of information that became public from the Mitchell Report, including testimony about Roger Clemens, Chuck Knoblauch, and Andy Pettitte.
If McNamee is lying then the Mitchell Report loses a lot [...]

Brian McNamee Lied Before Wednesday’s Hearings

Brian McNamee apparently lied before in a previous criminal trial out of Florida. This case was undisclosed at Congress but should be taken with a grain of salt.
One of the congressmen also alluded to several inconsistencies with McNamee’s testimony and concluded that McNamee lied initially to federal investigators when he withheld evidence of Clemens’ steroid [...]

The Debate Over Debbie Clemens and HGH

Here’s another sticking point that really hurts Roger Clemens if true. Clemens alleged initially when being questioned that he never ever talked about steroids or HGH with Brian McNamee. Later in the questioning he said that his wife was injected by Brian McNamee without his discretion.
His wife complained of an uncomfortable pain and a circulation [...]

Was Roger Clemens at Jose Canseco’s House Party in 1998?

One thing that is really different in the testimonies of Brian McNamee and Roger Clemens is whether Roger Clemens attended a 3-day house party at Jose Canseco’s house during a 3-game series (June 8-10) between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Florida Marlins in 1998.
McNamee swears he saw Roger, Roger’s wife, Roger’s nanny, and Roger’s [...]

Clemens: Andy Pettitte “Misremembered”

Roger Clemens testified that Andy Pettitte did not correctly recall a conversation they had in 1999-2000 about HGH use. Pettitte and his wife both testified that Clemens told Pettitte he used HGH and steroids. Pettitte later asked Clemens following Congressional hearings about steroids in baseball in 2005 what Clemens thought of his use.
Clemens then told [...]

Clemens On the Hot Seat

Clemens is being grilled by congress today on allegations of steroid and HGH use. Clemens has been shown evidence that he has given conflicting answers to many questions, including when Carolyn Maloney (D-NY) brought up that Clemens had given two different answers on why he didn’t speak to the Mitchell Report. Clemens said on “60 [...]

Pettitte Tells Congress Clemens Used HGH

Andy Pettitte reportedly told Congress in his private depostion that Roger Clemens had used HGH. Apparently, Clemens told Pettitte he used Human Growth Hormone 10 years ago.
Due to his testimony, Pettitte was excused from the public hearings today, along with Chuck Knoblauch and steroid dealer Kirk Radomski. Clemens and Brian McNamee will still be meeting [...]
