roger clemens guilty or innocent?

I just saw clemens on 60 minutes and thought I'd ask

clemens was accused in the George mitchell report by his former trainer Brian Mcnamee of taking roids and HGH

clemens says he was only injected with painkillers, lidocaine, and vitamin b12

Guilty.

Pitchers don't reach their peak until their mid 30s? Lol, come on.

Guilty.

I don't think I can ever watch baseball, after this steroid scandal. :(

"I was takin' Vioxx like it was Skittles."

"It didn't happen."

:lol:

I have never been a Clemens fan but I will say "guilty but he doesn't deserve to be harshly punished". I think he did it, knows he did it, and is lying through his teeth. At the same time I think the fact that he did win a Cy Young in 1998 and 2004 both before and after he was said to be using shows the guy is a great pitcher with or without drugs.

Guilty. In his last 79 starts for the Sox he went 40 Wins 39 Losses. Then, suddenly when he gets shipped to New York, he gets amazingly better.

His records are tainted and i hope they asterick him just like they should asterick bonds.

He is guilty, you want to know why?

Any doctor will tell you.

You do not inject lidocaine into your butt.

Why?

If you've been to the dentist and have had novocaine (its in the same family as lidocaine), you inject it into the area that needs to be numbed, its a local anesthetic. When you go to the dentist, you get it in your gums, so it numbs them and the surrounding areas.

If he was going to get lidocaine injected to relieve pain, it would be injected into the joint, or wherever, that is causing him pain.

He can lie all he wants now, but when he's in front of Congress, he better start telling the truth.

I don't know about anyone else, but anytime I go to the doctor (or the hospital, but haven't been too often) you always ask specifically what they are giving you and why, that is if they don't tell you in the first place. You don't just bend over or put out your arm and let them inject you with stuff...
