I am a fan of Roger Clemens, and I do not believe he has used HGH. It was his choice to go in front of congress, so why would he lie? They also do not have actual 'proof,' he has used HGH, other than testimonies about past conversations. What do you think?
I think he did use performance enhancers. Ever since he joined the Jays in 97, he has never had a year with less then 13 wins. He even reached a point when he had 22 wins. That tells you everything, Roger Clemens was starting to become the dominant pitcher after his prime ages.
Idk if he lied. My gut says he's a cheater but I believe in innocent until proven guilty. Either way I hope this is the end of all the allegations and suspicions. Baseball needs to be allowed to move on from this dark cloud hanging over it known as the steroid era.
Who cares ? I'm so sick of hearing about steroid use in MLB.They need to focus on the game of baseball instead of worrying about this kinda stuff which takes years to prove guilty/innocent.
The FEDS have a ton on him. Saying NO PROOF.. please... they do. They have syringes with his blood. You act as if EVERYONE is Framed and innocent. " MY PLAYER WOULD NEVER DO THAT" Grow up.. This is the Real world. People will beg borrow steal and YES CHEAT to get what they want. Roger is no different than any other player or person. Placing these people on pedestals is crazy. I'm a HUGE Padre fan. I loved Ken Caminiti. The guy was great. When I found out he was on Steroids I was not shocked at all. I also remember Kevin Brown from the 1998 Padres... then just 2 year later he was HUGE!!! Did you see his arms? He denied it.

LA Times sportswriter Bill Plaschke states that by 2003 "it was obvious to me...(and) Dodger management that...(he was) probably on steroids. We would even talk about it while watching their bulging, straining bodies from the dugout during batting practice. But the players would admit nothing, so there was nothing I could write."[6]. Brown's temper tantrums, he notes, may have in fact been "'roid rage."
And then there is Jose Canseco... The only person that had the BALLS to say the truth. I'm not saying he was correct in ratting out his friends, but he was so ridiculed and mocked as if he was crazy and a Liar. His motives I'm sure were monetarily based. But still he is the guy that is the one that wil be looked on as the one that was correct.
Roger is going to jail. Say goodbye to the HALL of FAME
