Roger Clemens Owns Up and Apologizes, No McCready; MCNAMEE SUIT STILL ON

  McNamee was so upset about his son's illness "being out in the public" that he has had a website dedicated to his son and the illness since before the taped call.  It was already public information. 

As much as Emery may want this to be about Clemens' personal life, the New York Yankees did NOT pay Clemens 28 million because he was married and had a cheery life.  To my knowledge there is no "pay penalty" for affairs.  They would have paid him regardless of his personal preferences that the Daily News is so eager to point out. 

Why Press On? 

It is because of publications like this that say how smart Duquette was for ridding Boston of Clemens in hind sight, because he is guilty.  But the the writer must have forgotten the likes of Paxton Crawford, and the 6 Red Sox that were using along with him in the locker room, and laughing out loud about it.  Three years later, steroids may have broken the curse for Boston. Of course Good Ole George didn't investigate Paxton further, that would be in direct contrast to his position.  As the Boston Red Sox Legal consultant he is employed on advising his client on their legal posture.

Ex-VP of MLB Securities and fellow investigator Kevin Hallinan was ordered by Mitchell to NOT investigate Mitchell's' former employer either. No, not Senate, but the Florida Marlins.  Hallinan resigned after the investigation.

From 1998 through 2001, catcher Luis Perez, said virtually everyone on the team was using.  Josh Beckett and Mike Lowell were on that team, and now play on Mitchell's' team. Very suspect that George's boys walk scott free, yet Clemens, the much maligned Boston Ex, is out to pasture, and now seemingly, forced to retire.

Clemens has admitted his wrong doings of a very personal nature, but there is still no proof to support McNamee's claims about Roger (and McNamee did lie about that abscess). After all of this, if Clemens did do it he would have come clean already.  Especially given yesterdays' admissions and apologies.

Of the PED allegations Clemens said:

''I realize that many people want me to simply confess and apologize for the conduct that I have been accused of, but I cannot confess to, nor apologize for, things I did not do.''

• Many attribute prejudging McNamees' honesty because, "if he lied, then he would go to jail." 

Here is a list of professionals that were issued the same threat of prosecution for making false statements (lying), all of whom support Clemens, that he never took any PEDs:

1.) Dr. Ron Talyor-injected B-12 same time as McNamees' missing abscess.
