April 5, 200620 yr Holy crap! WHen I read the headline, i thought he was riping on the WBC (whic I woul dhave no problem with him doing). But that? DAMN! You can't say that man, even if you are thinking it or just joking about it. you need to keep your mouth shut!
April 5, 200620 yr dear Roger Clemens i hate you and you are a dickface, but please play one more year cause i got you in a fantasy league and im struggling.
April 5, 200620 yr This is the guy who threw a bat at Mike Piazza, I'm not that shocked that he's stupid enough to say this in front of reporters.
April 5, 200620 yr I'm surprised no other sports outlets have picked up on this story. Nothing thus far from Foxsports, yahoo, or ESPN. This can morph into a HUGE controversy if ESPN, among others, have a backbone and report on the comments of Clemens.
April 5, 200620 yr In defense of him, if you watch the whole thing on ESPN it doesn't sound that bad. He also clearly didn't mean it in an offensive way. Just a boneheaded choice of words.
April 5, 200620 yr QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 05:04 PM) In defense of him, if you watch the whole thing on ESPN it doesn't sound that bad. He also clearly didn't mean it in an offensive way. Just a boneheaded choice of words. This is a situation where regardless of his intentions, the words themselves are worth more than any explanation thereafter. You remember criticism of Bill Parcells for calling a certain defensive play a "Jap attack," or some variation of that? He even went as far as to specifically warn the media he meant no harm by the term, but it didn't matter because he still said it. I'm interested how Baseball Tonight reacts to this...
April 6, 200620 yr Author QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 07:13 PM) I'm interested how Baseball Tonight reacts to this... Their answer probably: *crickets* "How 'bout those Yanks, Sawks and Barry Bonds?"
April 6, 200619 yr QUOTE(soxhawks @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 07:48 PM) I just wondered what the spin on this would have been if Bonds had said it Exactly what I was just going to post... There'd be a hanging scheduled, no doubt.
April 6, 200619 yr Well I guess after checking off the Comedy Network as a future employer, he might think about the Red Sox. Dumb try at comedy. Too bad he couldn't speak in "green"
April 6, 200619 yr QUOTE(soxhawks @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 06:48 PM) I just wondered what the spin on this would have been if Bonds had said it Ha, good point. I actually hate Roger more then Bonds, not sure why but Clemens has always bugged me for some reason and I do hate Barry as well.
April 7, 200619 yr QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Apr 5, 2006 -> 01:35 AM) Clemens is becoming quite annoying. BECOMING annoying? He has been for years.
