That 25% that did vote for him gave him the benefit of the doubt but now he lost all of their votes.

If a juiced Clemens is pitching to a juiced McGwire, Rodriguez, and Palmiero, who has the advantage?

At some point time he will specify his actual playing years when he was using steriods.

After which those statistics should be wiped away forever. Like it never happended.

The late 90's and early 2000's were an absolute joke in baseball. EVERYBODY was using the gas, even the batboys.

Compare the home run numbers by MLB in that span compared to the last 5 years. It's not even close.

I can't believe he is going to get away with lying to Congress.  That's pretty fucked up. 

Who are you talking about, Clemens or McGwire? McGwire never lied to congress.

mark m was definely juicing , and not only because of canseco, his little brother was a bodybuilder and got him started. his two bigger brothers were both failures one in football and the other basketball. his stats were 1317 walks 36th all time,   1626 hits ,   583 homers 8th=led league 4 times.,1414 rbi's 66th,  1167 runs scored192nd,   263 avg,   394 obp 78th,    588 slg pct 9th,   ab per hr 10.6 1 st all time.  votes pct in 2010 23.7 percent required pct 75 pct. chances geyying into hof not bloody likely. was on cover of md proves he was juicing.

I hate how they all make these qualifying statements when they admit it, blah blah I took steroids "on and off" for 10 years.  Just say you took steroids between these dates.  I have a lot more respect for someone who just fesses up without trying to soften things up.

Yawn.  In other news, Mark McGuire admited today that the sky is blue.  ::)

Exactly. Is this a surprise to anyone? Say what you want though, his "I'm not here to talk about the past" line is classic.  ;D




How fitting.....on the cover of MD.





HAHA, RON.....

heard larussa was actually considering utilizing him as a pinch hitter this season, which would delay his HOF nomination date 5 years and thus allow more to surface about steroid era, making his gear use more acceptable

He's a hell of a long ways from the hall at the moment (had like 26% of the vote, I think you need 67 or 75% or something like that).  I don't think he'll ever make it.

Since he will be the Cardinals hitting coach this season I think it was encouraged for him to just admit it or he would be hounded about it all season.  LaRussa also said that he would toy around with the idea of making him active for the playoffs if they make it.  Probably kidding but you never know.

Won't happen. To old and there's no DH in the National league.

I would argue that it extended their career lengths, especially Clemens. God knows he should have been done when Boston passed on him and Toronto signed him...and then he's pitching like he did 10 years previously and, voila, two more Cy Youngs.
