Well I'm glad that's all cleared up…

January 6, 2008

In a way I feel bad for Roger Clemens. In a sense, one of his comments on tonight’s 60 Minutes was right: America (or at least some of its baseball fans), have reached a point where it’s guilty until proven innocent.

To my mind, Clemens did not convince me of his innocence. I wonder if some sports broadcasting concern (ESPN, SNY) might higher an expert in body language to try to discern whether the Rocket was being truthful. I also wish I could see the unedited version of the segment.

I heard that Clemens had scheduled a press conference for tomorrow. I know we’ll all find out soon enough, but I wonder what the theory is behind that.

Stay tuned…

I wonder if body language is more revealing than a lie detector test? Clemens looked fairly convincing except he kept swallowing when the interviewer was reading from the Mitchell Report..indicating he might a been choking. His big screw up was using the 25 years I’ve given to baseball routine….sort of irrelevant to the accusations because it only takes one minute for something fresh to go rotten and 5 seconds to slip from steroids free to steroids filled.
