Curious thought this one might need its own thread
a little exerpt
According to McNamee, during the middle of the 2000 season Clemens made it
clear that he was ready to use steroids again. During the latter part of the regular season,
McNamee injected Clemens in the buttocks four to six times with testosterone from a bottle
labeled either Sustanon 250 or Deca-Durabolin that McNamee had obtained from Radomski.
McNamee stated that during this same time period he also injected Clemens four
to six times with human growth hormone he received from Radomski, after explaining to
Clemens the potential benefits and risks of use. McNamee believed that it was probably his idea
that Clemens try human growth hormone. Radomski instructed McNamee how to inject human
growth hormone. On each occasion, McNamee administered the injections at Clemens
Another nice tidbit for the Rocket man…
According to McNamee, from the time that McNamee injected Clemens with
Winstrol through the end of the 1998 season, Clemens
meh, who cares?
I guess If your a Tribe fan it doesn’t really matter
More fuel for the fire , Clemens=New Barry Bonds
Toward the end of the road trip which included the Marlins series, or shortly after
the Blue Jays returned home to Toronto, Clemens approached McNamee and, for the first time,
brought up the subject of using steroids. Clemens said that he was not able to inject himself, and
he asked for McNamee
Hey man you want some shit?
I always thought Clemens was kind of a dick even before this report.
But he has HOF numbers.
He’s still a dingus, though.
7 cy youngs? how many count? 3 after the age of 38? Super Jenefer Dances
That’s the whole messed up thing within all of this: what should count and what shouldn’t. No one knows…
“Twilight Zone” theme starts
Maybe if your a douchbag non of it should count?
It should all count. Fuck all of these guys. I say, if Pete Rose isn’t allowed in the Hall of Fame for gambling, then none of these steroid taking fucks should be in either.
Well put.
If this was a poll, I’d vote “juiced up jerk.”
Don’t forget, this deuchebag played on your team too.
And once he left “In the twilight of his career” he started pitching better than before (or maybe just on par as before, as he had a great start to his career). Yes, some of his numbers declined while on some crappy mid-90’s Sox teams, and then he found rejuvenation (in a bottle—allegedly), and then latched onto a great offense in the Yankees, thus solidifying deuchebaggery.
I have hated Roger since he left the Sox (or pushed out, depending who you ask), especially with the success he “found”. But the more I think about this whole debacle going on, the less I feel we can try the players in public opinion SOLELY BASED ON THIS REPORT. Is it damning, especially if true? Sure is. Is the evidence suspect? Sure is. Is everything printed in the report gospel? Not in the slightest. Is this the tip of the iceberg? Probably. Will I use this as ammo against my Yankee friends? Most definitely.
A: Jerkoff (probably juiced); potential HOF’er, depending how players of this era get treatment from the BBWAA.
^No shit you noticed in the report that he didn’t start juicing up till he got to toronto? Maybe Dan Duquette was right that Roger was on the decline…At least until he started useing roids AFTER he left Boston
I did notice that, and MIGHT have to start giving Duquette a little more credit, he did sign Manny and Pedro after all, and that turned out pretty well.
Yesterday morning before reading the report my uncle asked me if Roger was juicing while with the Sox and my kneejerk reply was no, probably once he left for Toronto. I guess that wasn’t so farfetched.
Q4T
“It should all count” meaning that everything noted in the Mitchell Report should count against the “offenders”?
I assume that’s what was meant, not “all the records should count”.
