Roger's had it coming since he threw that bat at Piazza. I hope he gets exactly what he deserves. 693912@blogcritics.org Fri, 8 Feb 2008 08:49:20 EST Comment by sal m on Roger Clemens Has Only Himself to Blame http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/02/06/224929.php#comment-693720 how can you say that mcnamee isn't the source of clemens current problems? if clemens had fired mcnamee when the yanks did he probably wouldn't be in this mess right now. given the nature of mcnamee's behavior that got him fired, it's hard to imagine a valid reason for clemens sticking with him. if you want to forward the argument that clemens has some kind of loyalty streak, you obviously havent' paid attention to the way he conducted his yearly auction where his services went to the highest bidder. 693720@blogcritics.org Thu, 7 Feb 2008 13:02:36 EST Comment by tom on Roger Clemens Has Only Himself to Blame http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/02/06/224929.php#comment-693714 Sal, No question the trainer is not the most savory character, but your opinion seems to imply that Clemens troubles stem from his relationship with McNamee. I think that is a bit premature. Let's see what else turns up over the next couple of months (especially Petites testimony). Had it been anybody else (vs a former cop that knows how innocent people can get thrown under the bus), It never would have gone this far. 693714@blogcritics.org Thu, 7 Feb 2008 12:46:53 EST Comment by Mark Hollings on Roger Clemens Has Only Himself to Blame http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/02/06/224929.php#comment-693681 This doesn't prove that McNamee was a lowlife. He was saving the syringes to protect himself against the day that Roger Clemens tried to throw him under the bus. And events proved that he was correct to do so. 693681@blogcritics.org Thu, 7 Feb 2008 08:55:06 EST Comment by Tan The Man on Roger Clemens Has Only Himself to Blame http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/02/06/224929.php#comment-693652 It has indeed been understated how loyal Barry Bonds' "posse" has been to him. 693652@blogcritics.org Thu, 7 Feb 2008 01:15:57 EST
