Enjoy on this cold Saturday in NY!
Clemens: You want answers?
Congressman: I think I’m entitled to them.
Clemens: You want answers?
Congressman: I want the truth!
Clemens: You can’t handle the truth! Son, we live in a world that has baseballs. And those balls have to be hit by men with bats. Who’s gonna do it? You? You, Congressman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for steroids and you curse HGH. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that HGH, while illegal, probably sells tickets. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, sells tickets…You don’t want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want me on that mound. You need me on that mound. We use words like fastall, slider, splitfinger…we use these words as the backbone to a life spent playing a sport. You use ’em as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and falls asleep to the Sportscenter clips I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I’d rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a bat and dig in. Either way, I don’t give a damn what you think you’re entitled to!
Congressman: Did you order the HGH?
Clemens: (quietly) I did the job you sent me to do.
Congressman: Did you order the HGH?
Clemens: You’re god damn right I did!!
Roger Clemens Valentine’s Day Card to his wife:
Roses are Red,
Clovers are Green,
Which would you rather have?
The Clear or The Cream?
LMAO.
Would have happened, except they decided to hammer McNamee instead.
You know how the media loves to take two names and put them into one. e.g., Bennifer (Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez); Brangelina (Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. I have a new one and quite appropriate.
Andro (Andy Pettitte and Roger Clemens).
FYI: Androstenedione was manufactured as a dietary supplement, often called andro (or andros) for short. Andro was in common use in Major League Baseball throughout the 1990s by record-breaking sluggers like Mark McGwire. (Wikipedia)
