Business and what not.


Don't ask.



Bye!

I won't ask if you don't ask.

WASHINGTON -- Roger Clemens has been acquitted on all charges by a jury that decided he didn't lie to Congress when he denied using performance-enhancing drugs.

Jurors returned their verdict Monday after close to 10 hours of deliberation. The outcome brings an end to a 10-week trial that capped an expensive, five-year investigation into one of the greatest pitchers in the history of baseball.

The 49-year-old Clemens was accused of perjury, making false statements and obstructing Congress when he testified at a deposition and at a nationally-televised hearing in February 2008. The charges centred on his repeated denials that he used steroids and human growth hormone during his 24-year career.

The verdict is the latest blow to the government's pursuit of athletes accused of drug use.

RT @jeffpearlman: Don't be confused: though he won't go to jail, Roger Clemens is a liar and a fraud.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

So how much taxpayer money was wasted on something Congress shouldn't even be involved in?

Not many things piss me off, but this does.

He'll probably get shelled once I say this, but RA Dickey is fucking amazingly great this season.

R.A. Dickey is 1st pitcher with consecutive 1-hitters since Dave Stieb for Blue Jays on Sept. 24 & 30, 1988:

Fuck him and his 80mph knuckle ball.

First Oriole game I've seen all year, too.

And Lance Armstrong will get crucified.

If only the French cared about baseball.

I almost died today, but then I played some softball, so all is well.

The softball and the almost dying were unrelated events. I was walking back from lunch with my girlfriend and a car ran a red light at the street I was crossing, and almost hit us.

Then the police put me in charge of getting the folks to exchange their insurance information and telling them how to handle filing the report, because they didn't want to show up.

Sideswiped by a motorist?

Edit: Beaten by the explanation. Glad to hear you're ok.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Whew, glad you're OK DS!

I just got done with my workout. I was very careful about it and was not close to dying.

Excellent pool shot. Well played.

Found a playlist on my iTunes that I certainly didn't download. But it's really quite great.
