Roger Clemens Traded To Washington (Part 1 of 4)

Roger Clemens. The name proposes strikeouts. Big-game pitching behind cutthroat heaters for the Hub Of The Universe Red Sox and New House Of York Yankees. It now denotes something else. The allegation of using performance-enhancing drugs.

HGH...steroids, the soiled small secret that is small no more. These days, when a baseball game participant is accused of playing with HGH/steroids inch improver to baseballs, he is brought to American Capital to look before Congress. That United States Congress should have got got better things to make with their years is another story.

Sammy Sosa, Mark McGuire, and now Roger Samuel Langhorne Clemens have all been called to reply to our Government, which have supplanted baseball game game apparently as the law of the baseball land. Roger Samuel Langhorne Clemens and Barry Bonds have got go the posting children for what have gone incorrect with baseball game in the age of participants being juiced. Although neither acknowledge to any error until now, there is no reply to why a player, one who should be in the dusk of his career, can suddenly accomplish more than around the age of 40 than they did 10 old age earlier.

Roger Samuel Langhorne Clemens had been given a base on balls in the media, and although there had been whisperings about him and using, it was nil in comparing to what the mass mass media had to state about Barry Bonds. The ground is unfastened to debate. I would state it is one portion race, one portion Bonds being the surliest dandy in town towards the media, and one portion Barry Bonds audacious to disrupt the slumber of place tally legends, 755, and all that.

Roger Clemens, like Barry Bonds, had the endowment to travel to Cooperstown without any additives. Roger Clemens, like Barry Bonds, drop on the blade of avarice. Enough is never adequate for their breed. Their celebrity is a drug, like steroids, that is habit-forming in the spoils it provides.
