Just suprised its taken two years to get anything. I thought McNamee had flipped earlier.

Racist witch hunt!

Of all the dramatic things . . . Roger Clemens is on the witness stand, and he's not coming back to free society.

Oh my God. Of all the things. Roger Clemens is in Denny McLain's cell.

I guess Clemens failed to learn from Bonds' putt (do what you need to have your supplier go to the slammer for you; still can't believe Anderson has done at least 2 years for Bonds, I thought only mob guys did that.)

 

[Michael_ Gee]

The thing is, Bonds is really smart, and Clemens, well, isn't.

Memo to athletes - when you retire, stay retired. I doubt there would be any juice (no pun intended) to the prosecution if he never came back with the Astros. Same with Armstrong's return.

Lying to congress is a crime? Who knew?

Why isn't it a crime for congressmen to lie to the public?

Just throw out a number, how much would you want go the Greg Anderson route and spend multiple years in captivity? A million dollars? Five million? Ten? Would you give up a couple years of freedom to bank a few million bucks?

These days? Think many might be surprised how many would . . . and for how little.

No price. My good name doesn't have a price tag.

I bet Anderson is/was getting very little. I think the total tab that Bonds paid him (as best as I can recall from "Game of Shadows") was something like $80k.

Like Anderson had a good name to begin with?

And put yourself in his shoes. Yeah, it sullies his name. But it also establishes him as someone who won't narc on someone else. That can pay off as well.

What kind of prison? PMITA prison or white-collar tax fraud prison?

Poor Roger...thought his friendship with Dubya would get him off the hook.

Wherever Anderson is now. One of the federal pens where sinister ex-trainers go to wait out trials.

He has a wife and a young son. Does anyone possibly believe he was paid less than multi-millions for his silence?

Have people forgotten about that since we don't have **** Nixon to kick around anymore?

Besides, nobody gets prosecuted for perjury. Geraldo Rivera told me.

Who says they're not mob guys?
