Good Point

Pete makes a good point. The players didn't do themselves any favors by stonewalling the issue for years. But the MLB Grand Poohbah's seemed to turn a blind eye to this as long as TV ratings and record revenue poured in. My point is that you can't convict all of the players. This Mcnamee is less than a credible witness.

The next investigation will seek players who knew of steroid use and didn't report it to their superiors.
Mr. Torre, I would like to ask you some questions about the bad things that took place while you were in command.
I can't explain why MLB owners can't take responsibility, but Mr. Steinbrenner (Sp?), thank you for stepping down.
Duty, honor, courage.

Less credible than Clemens?

McNamee had a strong self-interest in telling the truth, whatever the truth may be.

Clemens has a strong self-interest in denying taking steroids, whatever the truth may be.

So, which is less credible?
