I guess the Congress takes it unkindly when the half truths are coming from the other side of the table.

I'm just glad Congress doesn't have more pressing issues to deal with.

he is a complete idiot. Why do these guys feel they can't come clean. It was an era when the players knew it, the owners knew it and the fans knew it. We didn't care then. I am more pissed they try to sweep it under the mat. Just admit it and move on. I hope the jack A gets what he deserves 5-10 in the state pen....Liar liar pants on fire.

I remember watching a box break contest with some kids at the national. The one who go the lowest #rd card won a prize if he decided to trade it in. So one kid pulled a 1/1 refractor (which I would have sold) and traded it for a ball autoed by Clemens. He thought he got something great. I told him he should ask for some money along with the ball to make it worth the trade

What kinda CO. promotes this crap, much less him and bonds and others like that stupid idiot AROID. They should have all their records marked * or voided. JMO

The difference with Bonds seems to be that his numbskull "trainer" Greg Anderson, who allegedly provided Bonds with the 'roids, would rather be held in contempt of court and go to jail than testify against him.

"Federal authorities persuaded McNamee to cooperate with them in exchange for not charging him with steroid distribution"..........

"Federal authorities indict Clemens on charges of making false statements to congress about using PED's"................

So the dealer/distributor walks free but the person accused of using them and allegedly lying about using them faces prison time?

Wow.
