Don\'t forget about Clemens...

Quote from: booztravlr;145217
2007-05-14: i am almost positive this is not common knowledge as i just heard about it this morning. a kid i work with has a brother and also a friend who work at espn. turns out clemens\' late start last year was not due to a holdout for a bigger contract nor was it due to the fact that he was out of shape or undecided about his baseball future. it was due to the fact that he had failed a drug test (steroids). instead of the league banning him for 50 games with a public announcement, they decided to just have him wait about 50 games into the season before he signed with a team. this way one of their most recognizable and well known players wouldnt fall into the same group as the juiced up homerun hitters. i know clemens name has come up occasionally when steroids are mentioned but i dont think anything has ever happened from all of it. baseball officials and players really need to clean up their act.

Interesting post, Gordo. I looked at this situation from a different perspective after reading.


Glad you\'re open to the thought, at least.

Though I obviously can\'t condone the steroid use, I can\'t write off these guys completely for doing something that was practically the norm in MLB. That doesn\'t make it right, but steroid use doesn\'t make someone a terrible person either.

Not a single current or past player (of significant time spent) on the Cubs. Sweet. Now I know why they fall apart in either September or October.


















Wellll I guess sometimes April or May too.  :redface:

I was gonna make a joke about the Red Sox\' glorious 2007 championship being null and void because Eric Gagne was on the roids...then I figured that Gagne was definitely not on the roids in 2007.  Can\'t believe Milwaukee just gave him $10 mil for next season, he\'s obviously one of these post-roid freefallers.  Some guys have been good after stopping, but only if they were good before starting.  It seems that Gagne was never anything without the juice.

As far as this whole thing goes, I\'m just roided out.  I don\'t care anymore.  I can\'t get fired up to write about this.  It\'s just not that exciting or scandalous to me.  

Now if you\'ll excuse me, I have 2 new championship DVDs to watch...

I wish we never traded Gabbard for that chump.
