Roger Clemens saga is becoming more and more ridiculous by the minute. Now there are reports that there are pictures that indicate him at a particular party hosted by Jose Canseco, which Clemens denied under oath at a recent congressional hearing. So House of Representatives have asked Dept of Justice to step in to investigate if this warrants a perjury charge.
I had always wondered why Clemens keeps denying using steroid, when public polls had shown that it wont affect his chance of getting into Hall of Fame. By going in front of Congress under oath, he has everything to lose, but very little to gain. His once close friend Andy Pettitte admitted to using HGH twice and also indicated that Clemens had told him he used it. Pettitte has no reason to make it up; nor does the trainer McNamee, whom I think it is scumbag in his own way. Who keeps syringe from years ago when he injected Clemens and others and keep it for DNA verification, if you don’t foresee this type of hearing? How calculating/paranoid do you have to be to pull something like this?
I never liked Clemens, as a Red Sucks, Jays or Yanks. He always seem distant, not genuine and arrogant. So this circus was quite annoying to me. But the main point of this post is: Don’t our congressmen and women have better things to do than holding hearings about steroids use in a game? Don’t we have more pressing issues? Weakening dollar, credit crisis, impending recession, war in Iraq? Puhlease…House of Rep should come up with some act/law that can address something a little more important and Dept of Justice should be keeping us safe from the next terror attack.
