Congressional Hearing: Part II

Roger Clemens is particularly adament about not having used steroids, so much so that he called Andy Pettite a liar.


Pettite claims that he and Clemens had a talk about using HGH together, Pettite actually used HGH in 2002 (he admitted it) and was injected by McNamee then, as well as injected himself in 2004 twice. Chuck Knoblauch who towards the end of his career became atrociously bad, admitted to being injected with HGH by McNamee as well.

There was also a discrepancy of wether or not Clemens went to a Luncheon hosted by Jose Canseco (his then Toronto Blue Jays teammate). McNamee stated that Clemens was there, but Canseco, Clemens, and countless others say he wasn't there. Then there's the other thing, the whole "Nanny" thing. Clemens and co. apparently went out of their respective ways to track down this nanny they had 10 years ago and talk to her before congress got a chance too. Congress found this to be sneaky (and rightfully so).


Who's lying to who here? I have no clue, it's all a bit of a cluster fuck.




Roy Scheider died - this saddens me.

You know what, I didn't even know that Roy Scheider died on Monday at the age of 75. This is what happens, when I neglect to read the trades for a week. I can't believe I missed this, that Roy Scheider, one of my all time favorite actors has passed away. Jaws is probably one of my all time favorite movies ever made and Roy Scheider is part of the reason why.

I remember Scheider fondly for his role on SeaQuest opposite the late Jonathan Brandon, but moreso for Jaws. God, I remember watching Jaws for the first time and just realizing that this is what movies are about. It's not about how you do it, it's about getting the point across making it look real and believable and Jaws did that. It scared a lot of people from going in the water.

Roy Scheider will be severely missed here at the BoA.

The greatest question and answer ever.

Davis: "Mr. Clemens, do you recall bleeding through your pants in 2001?"
Clemens: "I do not."

Congressional Hearings: Part I

Andy Pettite has apparently admitted using HGH back in 2004....it's not looking good for Roger Clemens.

Yeah, like you wouldn't just run to begin with...

How to Survive a Volcano? You really want to know?

Fucking put some water on it!

I saw this ridiculousness here.

Michael Phelps is Aquadude.

In an interesting turn of events...


...or not really...


Michael Phelps and his coach have created a new brand/make of swimsuit. He kind of looks like Aquaman if Aquaman were from outerspace.
GO SPEEDO GO!

Chad Johnson to the 'Skins?

It's a rumor that's definitely floating around due to the fact that Johnson and their head coach do not get along at all. Seriously, would Johnson be a good fit for the 'skins? Maybe. It would cut down on Santana Moss' catches; as well as the rest of the team. And lets be honest he's a distraction. The 'Skins had a great end of the year last year, but you know the 'Skins would have to give up someone worthwhile or...at least a couple draft picks.
