Possibly a credible nutcase with all the potential evidence to fucking bury Clemens. He may have given them the smoking gun, er, smoking needle.

If the evidence is what they say it is, Clemens is in huge fucking trouble since he just apparently lied under oath. The probability that he could face jail time is extremely high if true. The probability that McNamee is going to jail if false is also extemely high. One of the two is lying.

Of course, Team Clemens is saying that McNamee manufactured the evidence.

A forensic lab should be able to determine the real truth.

I'll defer to your professional knowledge of such things (which I realize you're not a forensics guy), but if dude's been holding those items for 8 years, I would think the defense lawyers would have another name for this --


BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!


While I'm not a forensics guy, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn last night, and the CSI shows bore me to tears, my occasinally-watched-Perry-Mason-ass would think that "physical evidence" would get laughed out of court.

A forensics lab should be able to determine the following from those syringes:

1. What type of drug was in the syringes.
2. Whose DNA is on the needles.
3. Whether or not they were tampered with (ie. McNamee planting blood or drugs with an otherwise "innocent" syringe). That said, I'm not sure what factor time plays on the science of it all. I'll ask one of our more forensic types tomorrow.

Could he have injected Clemens with B-12, kept the syringe and later planted steroids or HGH in the syringe to try and cover his own ass? Sure, anything is possible. I don't think it's likely.

This shit keeps getting more and more weird. Dude sounded quite credible -- now he sounds like a nutcase.
The easy knee-jerk reaction.

This is no different than O.J. If that is Clemens' blood then this is a done deal. Period. And the trial will be Federal, not in a quackhouse posing as a courtroom in California.

Dude was protecting himself just in case. Well, welcome to the just in case. Brilliant move by his lawyers as well by not releasing the info til AFTER Clemens goes under oath. The chances Clemens says very much in front of the committee next week just diminished exorbitantly. It wouldn't surprise me now if Rusty tells him to take the 5th. Just in time for Andy to put the final nail in.

Clemens is toast

McNamee may be a turd, but he's a turd who has no intention of going to jail to protect Clemens' "secret".

Clemens never denied that Mac injected him with something. He's fully admitted to getting vitamin shots.


Not really a atretch to think that a guy operating beneath the law could conceivably try and mix HGH into a syringe that was used for something else, since Clemens had a lot to lose, and from what I understand a very deece income, which would make him prone to paying off a blackmailer to make bogus accusations go away.


I think he's guilty as sin, and I've thought that since long before any of these current allegations went down. But I'm also a freaking American, and Clemens' right to a fair trial is a million times more important that busting some has-been for juicing.


Alls I'm sayin, is that barring some CSI crap that we don't know about (but Fu is on the case), if that's the only physical evidence linking him to the crime, then I hope no one wastes so much as one taxpayer dollar railroading the guy, guilty as he may be.

Here's what I got from the science geeks.

A lab could determine everything that I said. BUT... time definitely plays a factor on the potential drug evidence in the syringes. There was some scientific mumbo jumbo thrown about that's certainly above my head but I was able to gather that steroids would have a much better likelihood of being detected over this time period than HGH. If McNamee has recently tampered with this stuff, that would also be easily detectable.

If it was way too fresh a sample (ie. not 7 or 8 years old) it would be kind of obvious. Or so I'm led to believe.

McNamee would be in a world of criminal trouble if he not only lied to everyone but also manufactured evidence. I'm just not buying what Team Clemens is selling.

For me, it comes down to this. McNamee has absolutely no incentive to lie--in fact, he has every incentive to tell the truth. He has lost his family, he lost his job, and he was threatened with jail time unless he came clean, completely clean.

So why would he lie about Clemens? And when Pettite and McNamee are singing the same tune (both about their interactions and those between Clemens and McNamee) why should we believe Clemens.

If all you are doing is telling the truth....why are his (Clemens) lawyers coaching his answers.

The Nanny thing blew up bad for team Rocket.

Some of the committee are clearly pulling for Roger but his elusive answers usually run out the clock before follow-ups.

Roger is lying.

A few observations:

The rep from NY who started off her questioning by kissing Roger's abcess riddled ass with his contributions to the Yanks and charities etc.. did a great job of softening him up before showing how Roger lied while on 60 minutes about being contacted by the Mitchell group. He blamed it on his agents for not telling him yet said on 60 minutes that he was contacted.

Then the Nanny issue pops up and though we'll probably never know what truly was said between Roger, his lawyers and the Nanny, Roger's lawyers had him invite her over to his house to talk to Roger? As Steve said, that completely blew up in their faces. Send over an PI for questioning and leave it at that.

To summarize:
Roger's wife took HGH.
Petiitte took HGH.

Yet, Roger not only didn't take HGH but didn't know much of anything about it until we was accused of taking it? OK Roger. Meanwhile Roger's wife complained of circulation issues and he never thought to call a doctor?

Over/Under on when Roger and his wife split?

My mother is an "expert" on communication and behavior from the University of Houston, so one of the local news stations (CW39-KHCW) interviewed her and asked what to watch for when someone is lying (body language, waffling, etc.).

She gave her professional opinion from a not naming any names standpoint, but sure enough, the reporter asked her who she though was lying between Mcnamee and Clemens.

She quickly responded, "No Comment." :lol:

I told her she could have started a local uproar of reports if she let it all out on her opinion of the whole thing. She didn't want to have anything to do with that part of it. Although, I'm certain they will edit in some footage of both witnesses today while she is talking so it will make her look like she is giving her opinion.

Pettitte is a piece of shit who had nothing to lose by "coming clean". The only guys with something to lose are guys with legitimate chances to make the HoF. And Pettitte sure as hell isn't one of those. Respect? The only thing I feel for Pettitte is antipathy. He's a nothing.

List all the stats you want, Pettitte still isn't going to the HoF and he wasn't exactly on the fast track BEFORE the Mitchell report. Pettitte was an Allie Reynolds type pitcher who won a few clutch games but overall was a good, but not an all time great pitcher. By comparison to Clemens he had NOTHING to lose.

Not a lot was revealed in that clip, but of course the network takes what was prolly a 15-30 minute interview and selects about 30 seconds of her remarks to play for the viewers at 9:00.

I don't know if mom said anything that was particularly damning to Roger or not, but Ch. 39 definitely went p.c. avoided airing anything that sounded like it was taking sides.
