May 2, 201213 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 2, 2012 -> 12:56 PM) Andy Pettitte is on the stand in Clemens's re-trial the last couple days. He's the prosecution's star witness because he can state that Clemens told him he was juicing. Clemens's defense is claiming that pettitte misremembered the conversation. Today, Pettitte admitted under oath that it's possible he misremembered or misheard the statement. This might well destroy the prosecution's case a 2nd time. Way to show that testicular fortitude Andy!

He is keeping his good friend from going to jail over something dumb and a giant waste of money.... I think anyone that wouldn't fudge the truth to help a friend out in a case like this is the true scumbag.

I can't imagine the government would have brought this "giant waste of money" case I'd try had Pettitr telling them what he just said in court. But hey, he's wasting the taxpayers money so it's ok right?

To be "under oath" means so little that I'm not sure why they even bother mentioning it. It carries about as much weight as pinky swearing does.

Well, I'm assuming they did their homework and knew how much it was troubling Pettite testifying against Clemens and probably shouldn't be relied as the the key witness..... none of it's ok.
May 3, 201213 yr F*ck Andy Pettitte. I cannot wait for him to get lit up in the coming weeks on national television.

May 3, 201213 yr QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 3, 2012 -> 08:44 AM) Because you can charge a person with perjury if they lie under oath? I'd love to know how often that actually happens, and what percentage of those actually result in a conviction.

I think Clemens has some good defense behind him. Just throw some doubt in there. Pettite might have misunderstood/misremember/etc. Pettite went along with it. Basically saying that you aren't 100 percent sure. I think Clemens will not be indicted. and you cannot say that Pettite committed perjury under oath. Great plan. I foresee both of them pitching for the yanks this year.

June 18, 201213 yr LOL. Let's all remember that this in no way exonerates Clemens from being a juice head.

June 18, 201213 yr Sucks, but not unexpected. Govt. rarely wins high profile cases against high-priced private attorneys. He's still guilty as sin, and most in the BWAA will see it that way.
