Anybody listening/watching this on TSN? To me, Rog sounds pretty guilty. He's pretty much "forgotten" every single incident or allegation in regards to any story regarding steroids or HGH he's involved in.

He seems like the type who would do it to me. If there's even any question it completely defames these athletes. But that won't take away all the awards and recognition these guys have achieved over the years. It's kind of sad because the hard working REAL athletes that play ethically probably missed a lot of chances while guys like Clemens dominated the leagues while being fed illegal/unethical substances. Innocent til proven guilty, but there's already enough culpability in my mind -- same goes for Bonds and several others too.

Just like Bonds, and Palmero (sp?) he's guilty. Gonna be interesting when they find out he committed perjury to congress after vehemently denying he used any performance enhancing drugs.

His answers all seemed to run of in random directions and have little to no relevence to the question. Like seriously, just because you walked 2 miles everyday from your condo to school; doesn't mean you didn't take steroids. I like most say he's guilty. Your head doesn't typically grow like his did with steroids.

also the the thing that really hurts is that his "close friend" andy pettitte even came out and said that Clemens was talking about using it.

I liked this morning when they were asking about the Andy Pettite conversations and all he had to answer was "I think he recalls incorrectly" to every statement made about him using HGH. It seems to me Clemens is lying, seems like a bunch of the congressmen are out to discredit Mcnamee. It's just a big farce if you ask me... If it does turn out the Clemens did use HGH/steroids he's in big trouble. He could have just stayed quiet and said nothing, but now he's lied under oath, could go to jail just like Barry Bonds.

Sounds he shoulda been injecting ginkgo biloba instead of B-12. Oh, and before anyone asks... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ginkgo#Medicinal_uses

These guys have made millions of dollars indirectly from fans walking through the turnstiles and watchnig TV. Why not just come clean and say: "Yes I did it. It was a mistake and I appologise." I would still have respect for him and his accomplishments and he could go on with the rest of his life. Now I am offended that he (and Bonds) thinks because he's a star athelete he can beat the system and pull the wool over the fans eyes. We're not all sheep and we all know people aren't perfect, own up to your mistakes and be a man.:thumbsdow

they both look like they're lying, and this whole thing just seems like a sham. My favourite part so far, Clemens throwing his wife under the bus. His wife did HGH? :rofl: I guess they have a big house. It takes a lot of muscle to push around that vacuum.

a bit off topic but just curious, how much do these banned substances (e.g. steroids and HGH) actually help your game? does it just add extra strength? I don't see it adding dexterity or finesse
