This whole thing is a joke,a witchhunt,a publicity stunt,a HUGE waste of taxpayers $$$.Most of MLB was on juice and/or HGH...get over it.Why persecute Clemens or Pettite or Bonds when the vast majority of users are getting off scottfree?!
HGH isnt the enemy and is quite beneficial in healing injuries.Only when stacked w/ insulin does it become possibly dangerous and quite anabolic.
Washington needs to focus on real issues like the economy,the FedReserve and the war and stop pretending to do something constructive...typical political bullshit.

Life is essentially one long Benny Hill skit punctuated by the occasional Anne Frank moment.

OK , I am not a yankee or Clemens fan yet this witchhunt is a joke , like said by most posters don't we have other more important issues to tackle then HGH ? most doctors say HGH is not even useful and even if Roger is lying it's not just him , it's a lot of major league players , why the focus on Roger ? beacuse he is republican maybe ? i don't know !

Clemens is friends with the elder Bush. They both live in Houston.
http://www.newsday.com/sports/baseba...,6469758.story
"Like Clemens, Bush -- who served one term as president beginning in January 1989 and is the father of current president George W. Bush -- makes his full-time home in the Houston area. Bush attends a handful of Astros games each season. During Clemens' three years with the team, 2004-06, he routinely socialized with Bush."
There's speculation today that Bush is likely to pardon Clemens.

But the whole thing is an abominable waste of time. Really pathetic for Congress to spend time on this. I feel kind of dirty for even digging those stories up.

Physical evidence of steroid use is easy to spot by a trained eye,which I have,and he has never shown the telltale signs,unlike Sosa,McGwire,Beltre,Bonds and about 250 other major leaguers.
HGH on the other hand has no physical telltale signs at all,except in extreme dosage cases,which results in a slightly distended abdominal area,but that again is typical only in pro bodybuilders.
So again how is it "obvious"?

As far as physical evidence goes allow me to shed some light...
A syringe used for taking most steroids(there are few oral ones) is a two part mechanism.The needle locks onto the syringe,typically by screwing it on.The needle is then plunged into the steroid,vitamin D,whatever...substance drawn up into syringe,withdrawn,and if the person administrating the injection is thorough will replace the needle again before injecting into the body
Now lets say that this trainer injected Clemens with vitamin D,lactated ringer,mothers milk...whatever...all he has to do to create "evidence" is take the needle w/ Clemens DNA on it and put it on a syringe used for containing steroids...and suddenly you have "evidence"?!?
You have no idea what this guy was threatened with by the Senate...for all we know he was threatened to turn in big names or his ass was grass.And since this freak supposedly kept used syringes laying around his pad for years,one has to wonder why the hell was he keeping them anyways...perhaps saving them for a rainy day??
Again Im not buying it....maybe he did use,maybe he didnt but this "evidence" and Pettites testimony alone isnt enough to deem Clemens a liar and tarnish his remarkable career accomplishments.
