      <title>Celebrity Death-Match: Roger Clemens vs. Brian McNamee</title>
      <author>Chris</author>
      <description>  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;img class="attributed_image" src="/image/file/12525/feature/random_key_25996_file_clemens.roger.2.jpg" br_image_id="12525" border="0" style="margin: 0px 8px 8px 0pt; float: left" /&gt;What have we learned during the Congressional Hearing?&amp;nbsp; Somebody is obviously lying; we don&amp;rsquo;t know who.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Republicans like Roger Clemens.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Democrats like Drug Dealers.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Suffice to say, we haven&amp;rsquo;t learned anything.&amp;nbsp; In the end, we probably won&amp;rsquo;t learn anything.&amp;nbsp; There&amp;rsquo;s only one thing that can prove one way or the other and that is the syringes; everything else is just finger pointing.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;It is known that Brian McNamee has lied in the past, but it had also been determined that two people he accused of using HGH have admitted the same.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;So the corners are set, McNamee versus Clemens.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;McNamee starts off by pulling out the Mitchell report.&amp;nbsp;It seems he&amp;rsquo;s planning on taking Clemens out with one shot.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;What&amp;rsquo;s that, Clemens dodges the report.&amp;nbsp;He must have known it was coming.&amp;nbsp;No wait, Clemens is claiming he had no prior knowledge of the report.&amp;nbsp; He&amp;rsquo;s saying that he&amp;rsquo;s a public person he could have been notified.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;There he goes again, back to his evasive maneuvers and McNamee is still swinging report. Oh my, he nails Andy Petite and Clemens&amp;rsquo; wife Debbie.&amp;nbsp;They both saw it coming and just let it hit them.&amp;nbsp; They are both recovering though, it seems that everybody is letting them recover while they watch Clemens and McNamee square off.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Now it is Clemens&amp;rsquo; turn.&amp;nbsp; He is trying to cut McNamee&amp;rsquo;s legs out from under him.&amp;nbsp;The blows hit hard as McNamee is proven guilty of lying and it sure doesn&amp;rsquo;t look good.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Look at that, McNamee is fumbling through his pockets, no wait; he&amp;rsquo;s pulling syringes out of his butt.&amp;nbsp; I don&amp;rsquo;t think anybody saw that coming.&amp;nbsp; He must have had those up there for years.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;What could Clemens do to combat these new weapons?&amp;nbsp; I don&amp;rsquo;t believe it, he&amp;rsquo;s going old school.&amp;nbsp; He just said &amp;ldquo;what kind of sick freak would keep syringes&amp;rdquo; for that long.&amp;nbsp; He&amp;rsquo;s calling McNamee names.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;This battle is really heating up folks.&amp;nbsp; So much in fact, Congressmen are joining the combatants in the ring.&amp;nbsp; The Democrats are siding with McNamee while the Republicans are backing Clemens.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;This is the bloodiest fight I&amp;rsquo;ve seen since I visited Michael Vick&amp;rsquo;s house.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;It seems the Congressmen have gotten their blows in and are leaving the ring.&amp;nbsp; That didn&amp;rsquo;t solve much did it?&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;And that&amp;rsquo;s about all we have time for folks.&amp;nbsp; Join in next time. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin-bottom: 10pt" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Although, there&amp;rsquo;s no way I could leave without some predictions.&amp;nbsp; There are only two possible outcomes from how I see it:&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in" class="msolistparagraph"&gt;1.&amp;nbsp; Those syringes miss their mark, and Clemens turns them against McNamee to stab him to death.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in" class="msolistparagraph"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt 0.5in; text-indent: -0.25in" class="msolistparagraphcxsplast"&gt;2.&amp;nbsp; Or, the syringes are real and they hit Clemens right in the heart for a fatal blow.&amp;nbsp; That&amp;rsquo;s alright because George W. Bush is waiting ringside to save Clemens from a reputation-killing jail sentence.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;  </description>
