Roger Clemens and the trainer guy from the Jays and Yanks testified in some cogressional hearings today in Washington that was broadcast live on radio.
My understanding was that there wasn't anything particularly criminal about taking 'roids when all this happened - or at least the guys that have admitted it aren't facing jail time. You may very well get jail if you perjure yourself in these hearing though.
My initial reactions were:
1. Doesn't a US Congressman have something better to do than this. I mean there is a war going on, the economy is in the tank, there are healthcare issues.......etc etc and you are wasting your time asking a baseball player what he stuck in his bum 10 years ago and whether he used a bandaid after ?
2. Why do they have jurisdiction on something like this ?
3. Who cares anyway ?
