You might have seen our reports on the Home Run Chase this last summer and even a preview of the controversy last spring training from Arizona. This year things are a bit different. The drug problems with baseball have been at least partly revealed and some of the big names, like Barry Bonds, are not currently signed with a team. As a huge baseball fan and former professional player, I have given my opinions and think the surface wa
s only scratched, but I also truly believe we should move on rather than rehash. The commissioners office, owners and the players association are all at fault. The players themselves, many have not been named, will deep down know they cheated the game.
One person we have been relying on during our coverage is longtime baseball writer Barry Bloom. He’s got another article out about the Bonds testimony being unsealed. I have the article here after the link, but while interesting, there is no smoking gun. I still think there is a chance that Bonds gets a chance to play this year. Keep Reading …

Many of you watched the Congressional hearings during which Roger Clemens and Brian McNamee each told their tale of whether or not Clemens used performance enhancing drugs. Now the FBI is being asked to investigate whether Roger Clemens lied under oath.
Overwhelmingly, you posted comments on the Colbyfiles that one or the other was lying. But I heard a theory - perhaps far-fetched - I want to run by you.
A fellow attorney suggested that McNamee may have injected Clemens with steroids (as he claims) but Clemens may not have known what he was being injected with. In that isolated case, each would in fact be telling the truth.
I admit it’s a long-shot and I’m not even sure the FBI would consider it. But two weeks after we heard and considered the testimony of both:
Who do you think is lying - Clemens or McNamee? Is there any chance they are both telling the truth?

Are you watching the Congressional hearings on the alleged steroid use by Roger Clemens? Roger Clemens ended his opening statement in an emphatic way…insisting that he has never used human growth hormone or steroids. Never.
Brian McNamee continuing to insist he is not lying and that he did inject Roger Clemens. In fact he states today that now that he has had a chance to think about it, he injected Roger Clemens more times than he previously testified to.
So with both Clemens and McNamee insisting their positions are correct….
Who do you believe is telling the truth about whether Roger juiced up?
