Message #4863 of 6634  *NEW* To :   All From :   Rob Reed   Subject :   Live blog of Roger Clemens' Date :   2/13/08, 11:49am Andy Pettitte is a key witness against Clemens, unfortunately. I am sure it is as heart wrenching for Pettitte to be involved as it is for Clemens' fans to hear about it. • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #4863 • Back to Topics 7244 reads 1543 clickthrough(s) You cannot start a topic in the Headlines or Classifieds area... if you want to post a new message, try one of our other message areas!

I honestly do think >congress has better things to do. I agree and disagree. My disagreement comes in because baseball is America's pasttime. It is one of those things that one thinks about when thinking about this great country of ours... and, Congress has entered the fray when it came to baseball many times... For instance, there's the antitrust exemption (interesting thing to study if you like reading about the history of baseball). I think Congress should stay out for the most part... BUT, when baseball turns a blind eye or simply refuses to correct a problem (as I think is fairly obvious in the Selig era), I don't have a problem with tax dollars being used to protect the game that is as American as hot dogs and apple pie. • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #4872 • Back to Topics 8010 reads

Message #4874 of 6634  *NEW* To :   bballfan12 From :   john.reiss   Subject :   Re: Live blog of Roger Clemens' Date :   2/25/08, 4:38am Congress does have better things to do however, since they aren't doing that, they might as well do something. Congress should step in and try to clean up baseball since they don't have any competition. While they can't break up Major League Baseball like they did Ma Bell (but are letting them get back together), they can and should oversee them. If you look at it from a business perspective and not a fan's, the MLB makes a ton of money and receives a lot of tax breaks in the process. • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #4874 • Back to Topics 8563 reads

Clemens, along with his son, Koby, have been spotted at this particular club numerous times. • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #4875 • Back to Topics 8561 reads

My first thought: how does a fitness center provide HGH to patrons? Does the news story mean a trainer who works at the center? I don't think Clemens should be implicated just for going to the gym. • Previous Topic • Next Topic • Reply to Msg #4882 • Back to Topics 8560 reads
