I don't know if any of you have been following the steroids case on Roger Clemens, but after the hearing that took place this week I have come to two conclusions: What the F**k is going on; and can Roger Clemens bring anyone else into this completely unnecessary media frenzy? I mean first he accuses his accuser Brain McNamee of lying about his steroid use. Then his fellow teammate, Andy Pettitte, said that Roger used steroids. Roger immediately says Andy mistook the conversation for him talking about his wife taking HGH. (Did he just throw his wife under the bus to try and save himself?) Now he's accusing congress of lying?
As the previous link shows Clemens and his staff have moved their fourth grade argument style from the ever popular did not... did too, with McNamee, to the even more immature, he started it, with Congress. Congress stated that Clemens and his lawyers insisted on having the hearing even though congress thought they had enough information from the depositions. Roger may have a point here because since when does a baseball player have the right to tell congress what to do? Shouldn't congress have the final say whether the hearing should take place and wasted taxpayer money?
To me Roger is guilty because he insists everyone is lying and he is telling the truth. However, I have no idea what the hell is happening and wish it would just end already.
I agree that this Roger Clemons steroids scandal has gotten out of hand. It has got to the point where I do not understand why they keep doing this because they are not solving anything. Clemons keeps denying that he did steroids which seems to be false at this point. I do not think that anything is going to happen once this is all over. Congress keeps interviews him but they do not seem to be doing anything about his actions. I am waiting to see if this is going to have some sort of impact on baseball or all of sports but for now I do not see the point. This should be a baseball issue not an issue for Congress. After all this there needs to be more money put into educating young people so they understand that this is not the right thing to do.
I can't keep track of any of this either. It's crazy! I've been a fan of Roger Clemens but now all he is doing is making himself look bad. At least twice I've heard announcers making fun of him by quoting his new word 'mis-remember'. Clemens used this new word to insult a congressman. If one of his friends, Pettitte, even turned him in, then I think this case is over. I agree when you say fourth grade type of argument. It's annoying and even a little embarassing to see two full grown men argue like this. If Clemens did it then he needs to deal with his consequences and stop making a fool of himself. I've given up in keeping track of this whole case because frankly it's getting too ridiculous. This whole thing just needs to come to an end so we can move on.
