Congrats to the jury for getting it right.

Yeah, I just read all of that transcript myself and what a bunch of garbage.

With friends like that, who needs enemies?

And, in all of that conversation, he never once said he used PED's. Sounded like Mac was trying to set him up IMO. I mean, who recorded this call?

How come no one ever accuses of suspected Griffey Jr. of juicing? But they do Clemens?

Jr was completly broke down and talent gone by the tme he was 40. Clemens got better from 35 on. Not saying Jr did or didnt but the human body doesnt get better with age. I dont know if Clemens did or didnt either but like with Bonds there isnt much doubt in my mind.

First off, to those who say that the MLB testing policy is a joke, remember this; the Commissioner's Office said in 1993 that PED use was against the rules. However, the PLAYERS UNION was against those rules and the owners didn't have the balls to fight the PU.

Another joke is Andy Pettitte.

The retired Pettitte clearly remembers what Roger Clemens said and tells the authorities about it.

The UN-retired Pettitte gets on the stand and says there is a 50% chance that he "misremembered" what Clemens told him.

Gee, imagine that; a guy who wants to get back into the game, make millions of dollars playing for the Yankees and doesn't want to make any waves or have any retaliation for testifying does just enough to torpedo the prosecution that allows Clemens to go free....

To the person who said there was a New York bias, look at the FACTS.

Andy Pettitte has admitted to using HGH.

Alex Rodriguez ADMITTED to using PED's BUT only did so AFTER YEARS of denying using them and only AFTER he signed a new, long term contract that had NO wording in it for admitting previous PED use.

So, A Rod gets a conscience and wants to tell the truth about his PED use only AFTER he gets a new contract. What a swell guy.

Do you really think the Yankees would have agreed to that big contract if A Rod had admitted to previous PED use?

A Rod is now what, 37? Where are the big offensive numbers he is getting paid to produce? Why isn't he putting up BETTER numbers at 37 than he did at 27 (like Barry Bonds did?).

Oh, that is right. A Rod is clean now and putting up numbers like NORMAL 37 -year old players historically produced before the Steroid Era. Ie, good numbers but ones that are LESS than they did in their younger years. Numbers that are NOT worth what he is getting paid to produce.

You got it...but the biggest joke is that this idiot cop-turned-drug-dealer is the only one who comes off looking guilty in this transcript...suggesting he himself should go to jail, etc...nice "interrogation". What a complete clown!

You tell me - which one of these guys is the scumbag:

McNamee: Tell me what you want me to do. I told you in the (unintelligible). What do you want me to do? I'll go to jail, I'll do whatever you want.

Clemens: I need somebody to tell the truth, Mac.
