How Can We Ever Listen To Suzyn Waldman Again?

"Roger Clemens is in the halls of Congress, and Roger Clemens is being made to look like a fool. Of all the horrific things. Roger Clemens is permanently tarnished. Oh my goodness. Goodness gracious!."

 

Ever fake a Walgasm?

 

I think yesterday he was waiting for Phil Hughes to come save him, and give 5+ hours of flawless testimony.

 

I'd rather her keep her face on the radio.

 

Well played.

 

It goes great with her Yankees knee-pads.

 

Yep, because when you have a hugely successful career that includes more than 700 games, you should be judged on the one that went totally horseshit.

 

He seemed to have a lot of totally horseshit moments on the big stage.

Game Six, 1986 WS: Owwww! A blister! six outs away from the Red Sox' first title in 68 years.
Anytime he opposed Dave Stewart (1-7 lifetime)
Game Three, 1999 ALCS: WHERE IS ROGER? IN THE SHOWER!
2000 ALDS: 0-2, 8.18 ERA
Game One, 2005 WS: Owwwwwww!!! My hammy! After he gave up three runs in two innings
Game Four, 2007 ALDS: Owwwwwwwww!!! my hammy and my elbow!!! After he gave up three runs in 2 1/3 innings

Roger was good at bullying and delivering the first punch. When someone else punched back on the big stage, he folded, far more often than not. He would have found that out, literally, had he had the balls to look at Mike Piazza after he chucked the bat at him. Turns out the Simpsons in which Clemens clucks like a chicken was far closer to reality than we realized.

 

Not the point.

Someone chose to define his career by one game, which is stupid.

 

Fair enough, but the guy had a nasty habit of stubbing his toe on the big stage.

 

Well, that wasn't his fault. He got hypnotized by Dr. Marvin Monroe.

 

And now his career is defined by chemicals.

BYH you forgot game 7 of 2003 ALCS when Rocket got blown out in 3 innings.

I have never thought of Clemens as a big game pitcher. If you asked Yankee fans if they would rather have Wells or Clemens with ball in big game most would say Wells.
