Report: Clemens to be named in Mitchell report
Boston.com ^ | 13 December 2007 | Steve Silva

This just ran across the ESPN News scroll...

"A source close to a former Yankees strength trainer tells ESPN The Magazine's Shawn Assael that the trainer told Mitchell investigators he supplied Roger Clemens with steroids; information supplied by this trainer is in the Mitchell report. According to one industry official who spoke to [the] Bergen Record, 'several' prominent Yankees will be named in the Mitchell report."

Sucks when the head of the investigation is also on the Board of Directors of the Red Sox. If any recent Sox stars are not named, this report will immediately be considered rubbish by most fans.

Is Varitek big enough a hit for you?

A-Rod appears to be clean. Finally, a clean superstar.

Agreed. I am a diehard BoSox fan, and even I am very happy Gayrod didn't make this list.

No kidding---that was yesterday's blockbuster trade! Those who asked themselves what the hell Baltimore was thinking might have their answer . . .

I almost mentioned Nolan Ryan, but I figured that true baseball fans would get my point when I mentioned “power pitchers over 40”.

This is all so hilarious. Every lineman in the NFL does steroids and nobody cares. Also rampant in hockey. Only in baseball does everyone get so bent out of shape over it.

Baseball's the only one with records and history that people care about. I'm glad the public holds it to higher standards.

Well this patriot team would crush that dolphin team,

Even this year's Dolphin team would crush the '72 Dolphin team.

You can recover from a muscle injury in 1/4 the time with steroids.

Torn shoulder muscle? Back on the mound in 10 days.

Baseball records are no more sacred than any other. And the people aren’t the ones holding baseball to any standard, the people have clearly demonstrated they don’t give a crap about steroids in sports. It’s the press that keeps the roid story alive, and then Congress got bored and made things scary for the MLB. That’s why the Mitchell report happened, to make Congress go away and shut the reporters up.

That’s what I keep thinking with some of these.

I just got a steroid shot a couple of weeks ago for a freakin’ sinus infection. There are medical reasons for it. Did they make a distinction or just lump them all together?

Bradley has had some anger issues over the years. I remember
seeing him come up with the Vermont Expos (now Lake
Monsters) years ago. No relation to the game company

'roids are not just used by the "big".

They are used by most of these guys to recover from injury.

The so called NBC list is now under revisement. So don’t lose hope.

We know Ortiz is eating illegal amounts of donuts.
Manny eats raw cocaine leaves but that’s just Manny being Manny.

Randy Johnson does not APPEAR to be a regular roid user.

He's definitely a power pitcher.
