Grimsley names Clemens

    I apologize to the woman whom I swapped spit with a few minutes ago. But, you know, in a time of unspeakable joy such as this, the heart leads one to do wacky things.

    I'm Casey Kasem and here's the countdown of the top three moments in BYH's life.

    3.) Dropping one spot from last week, it's when his sister had a healthy baby boy. His nephew turns three this week, and to wish him a happy birthday, BYH sends out this long-distance dedication: Rod Stewart's "Forever Young." Which BYH is not.

    2.) Also dropping one spot from last week: After more than four years atop the chart, it's when he got married to an incredibly patient woman. They're still very much in love and it took quite an event to knock this off the top. It was quite a run at the top for the Hacks, exceeded in the history of charts only by "You Light Up My Life," which enjoyed a 12-year run atop the adult contemporary chart in the '70s and '80s.

    1.) And the new number one...a chart debut: Today, when Roger Clemens was exposed as a steroid-using freak.

    Wow, Clemens on the juice! Who woulda thunk it, with the guy growing tree trunks for legs, throwing bats at grown men and carrying a 2.30 ERA into his mid-40s. I thought that was completely natural!!!

    And Pettitte, what a shock. All he ever did was follow Clemens around like a lapdog. I guess that's where the extra MPH on the fastball came in his late 20s and early 30s, huh? All those workouts with Clemens?

    Glorious day. I guess this means maybe the world-class ass will finally retire for good? So he can avoid his second first steroid suspension? Or maybe he'll just happen to come back next year 101 games into the season.

    Screw you Roger. Fucking beautiful day. Jason Grimsley is my new favorite player.

    It's still an informant's word against the president's. [/alhaig]

    I, for one, believe we need to take Clemens at his word. He is clean in my eyes. [/LeBatard]

    "Hey Roger have you ever taken steroids?"

    "Next question!"

    Maybe, Clemens wasn't really retiring all those times. Maybe, MLB told Roger to take some time off so he could avoid being tested for steroids or suspected of using HGH. Sort of like when Michael Jordan had a gambling problem and the NBA forced him to retire for two years to clean himself up. This is the sort of thing the major sports leagues will do for their stars. Mainly they protect the player for the interest of the league.

    For being that old, throwing that hard, and being in that good a pitching shape, I wonder why this didn't come out sooner from an MLB vet.

    Clemens as been annointed as a pitching saint because he never hit the age wall that his peers did. Did we not see these allegations coming?

    He is the greatest of our time.

    Hopefully the juice is just a rumor, but I think it's a very real possibility.

    Clemens has also had an awful face lift?

    Awful is putting it mildly...

    Great work. We knew this was coming, and the LA Times wins the race.
