Oh My Goodness Gracious--Roger Clemens Indicted for Perjury

    I liked watching Clemens pitch.

    The one stretch he had in Toronto was amazing.

    I've met him several times. He was always nice enough to me. We used him in a promotional spot. I didn't go the taping, but everybody who did said he was a good guy.

    But, I don't think he's a "rocket" scientist. I think it's pretty clear he cheated, and I think it's pretty clear he lied.

    I think he wants/wanted into the Hall of Fame real bad. I think he thinks he deserves it. (Probably justifies it in his own mind because of how many hitters were cheating and/or by telling himself that he would have gotten in without cheating.)

    I think he decided he was going to lie through his teeth and just deny, deny, deny. I think that he thought he would clear his name if he volunteered to testify and was so outspoken in his own defense.

    He just never counted on Monica saving the blue stained dress. :)

    From Clemens' (verified) Twitter account: "Btw...the dude they sent from the times that did that so-called write up...he reeked of liquor both days. 11am interview (but I guess it was 5p somewhere)"

    Anderson and Bonds have been close friends since they were kids. It could simply be that Anderson didn't want to rat out his friend.

    When did this happen? I've watched every Yankee game this past week and did not hear anything about this. This has to be another one of those made up internet stories.
