Juicing Traitor. Go suck on Curt's bloody sock.

I live not too far from Pawtucket. Everyone in the PawSox Hall of Fame gets a mural painted on the inside walls of the ramps that lead up and down from the upper deck seats.

Clemens' mural in the PawSox Hall of Fame will show him wearing a large, flesh-colored batting helmet covered with hair.

Oh, wait. Sorry. I was thinking of his post-HGH head. Never mind

I just remember when he made 9/11 all about him and his breathless tale of hi death-defying ride back to Texas in his Hummer.

Maybe I'm being too hard on him.

I didn't know about the 9/11 story, Bitty. What a prick.




Fuck you Hal.

No doubt, Clemens is a jerk.

But he should still be in the Hall of Fame. He was a Hall of Fame player before he ever started juicing. So was Barry Bonds.

Look, I hate the PEDs, too. But the standards for the Hall—always pretty specious—are now officially ridiculous.

Basically, it has become pure personality. Big Papi will go in because everyone likes him—even though he was caught juicing. Many others will stay out—even when NOT caught, as with Albert Belle—because nobody liked them.

And too many—such as Jorge Posada—will get no consideration because they were overshadowed by juicers. Take away Juicing Pudge Rodriguez, and Jorge was the best catcher in the American League for 10 years.

Hey, is it just me, or did anyone else notice Chapman walk off the field holding the back of his right hip last night? He seemed to hastily pull his hand away when he realized the cameras might be on him.

Uh-oh.

Carl J. Weitz said...

I saw that as well, Horace. Also a slight grimace or disgusted look on his face.

Also, very true on the PED HOF hypocrisy. Big Popper will go in because of his smile wheras Arod will not because of his arrogance and narcissism.

IF PAPI AND HIS BULLSHIT GETS IT, AROD MUST TOO.

....OR ELSE IT MAKES NO SENSE.

It already makes no sense.
