15 year olds dude

Ohhh Roger Clemens. The Rocket. As a kid, i hung your posters on my bedroom wall. I collected your baseball cards, i still have your rookie card. I stuck with you when you betrayed the Red Sox and left them for their nemesis the Blue Jays and then went on to the Yankees. I was even happy for you when won the World Series even though i hate the Yanks. Your powerful arm and longevity reminded us of the great Nolan Ryan. You were a fierce and intense competitor with a menacing demeanor and a respectable passion for the game. Then you went and took steroids, i have no doubt. But i could probably have let that slide seeing as you were probably only one of hundreds that did the same. But then you had to lie about. You had to go around capitol hill glad-handing congressman. You turned on your loyal trainer. You betrayed your friend Andy Pettite. Lies, lies and more lies flew from your mouth. And now this. A 15 year old, dude. As a MLB All-Star and multiple Cy Young winner, I'm sure you could have been with any woman you wanted but instead, while you were married, you chose a 15 year old girl. Before you took steroids, your head must have already been bigger than your home state of Texas. Mindy Mcready owned up to it. Andy Pettite owned up to it. You have nothing left but to own up to the truth. Accept your rapid demise. Fess up to your wife. Fess up to Congress and MLB. Suck it up. You screwed up. Own up to it and quit with the lies. You are just getting more and more pathetic. Heroes rise and heroes also fall....

Probably the best post we've had. Well done, Zulu.

I have an idea.

Let's pull all the money that funds baseball and invest it where it counts *soccer* and catch up to what the rest of the world already knows is true...

Hey now, Fro, I still like baseball.

But it looks like it's getting worse for the vaulted Clemens:

An alleged affair with golfer John Daly's wife.

Oh, how they fall, with a trail of lies behind them.
