    Roger Clemens indicted for perjury!

    WASHINGTON (AP)?A federal grand jury on Thursday indicted seven-time Cy Young Award winner Roger Clemens for allegedly lying to Congress about using steroids.

    Clemens faces charges of obstruction of Congress, making false statements and perjury.

    The former Major League baseball pitcher and his former trainer, Brian McNamee, testified under oath at a 2008 hearing before a House committee and contradicted each other about whether Clemens had used the banned substances.

              As if there aren't other things to worry about. What a waste of time and money.

                  It only took them 2 years of investigating to indict him. I am sure they spent the money well. </sarcasm>

                      Quick, Roger -- get your hands on a cigar and stick it into Monica Lewinsky immediately!

                      I'm not a lawyer, but my understanding is that doing this indemnifies you against a charge of perjury....

                          What a waste of tax payer money. Who cares if he did Steroids? I realize lying under oath is a bad thing... But lying about using steroids is like my kids lying to me about brushing their teeth -- It's only gonna affect them in the long term!

                          Did he not personally throw the pitches? Did someone else help him with his accuracy? I don't think Steroids made him throw a more accurate strike.

                                          95% of baseball was probably doing roids. wonder why it took so long for them to realize he lied to them. lol

                                          it is a waste of money. MLB just needs to police it's game and be strict with substance abuse and not worry about the players union.

                                              While I agree that there are more important issues, lying under oath undermines our judicial system, and should not go unpunished.

                                              The larger message to me is about steroid abuse. It is unfair to clean players whenever anyone gains an unfair advantage by using illegal drugs. Likewise, if high profile players that are idolized by young people are allowed to abuse drugs and flaunt it to the system, the use of these rather dangerous drugs may spread.

                                                      nahh thats pure fucking coincidence... :P


                                                      They should have never put Roger on the stand in the first place, or anyone else on this issue for that matter. This is a major league baseball issue not something the government should intervene in. Since they did intervene and since he did perjure himself theres not much else that can be done at this point... lying to a grand jury is not something that should be taken lightly.

                                                      all my athletic heroes of the past are on steroids or are criminals of some sort... pretty fucking sad... nobody is perfect but damn....

                                                          So first they wasted tax dollars and time "investigating" steroids in baseball.

                                                          WHAT THE FUCK!

                                                          And now this?

                                                          The people going to jail should be the fucking Congress for wasting our money doing something that has abso-fucking-lute-ly NOTHING to do with governing the country.

                                                          I feel like the country I grew up in has become an international joke.
