"Federal authorities persuaded McNamee to cooperate with them in exchange for not charging him with steroid distribution"..........

"Federal authorities indict Clemens on charges of making false statements to congress about using PED's"................

So the dealer/distributor walks free but the person accused of using them and allegedly lying about using them faces prison time?

Wow.

Clayton,

It's like fishing, you throw the little ones back and keep the big ones.

The guys who told the truth about their involvement with steroids and HGH have come out of this scandal with little or no damage. Andy Pettite is doing commercials for Dove Soap for crying out loud...Roger Clemens lied, got caught lying and even took it to a disgustingly personal level in his battle with McNamee which is much more despicable than taking PED's IMO. Now it's probably too late for Clemens to pull a Mark McGwire and issue a fake apology.

Don't forget that Roger even threw his wife under the bus too.

Heck, he threw her under the bus long before the steroid investigations even started (Mindy McCready), but yeah, that was pretty despicable too.

I am experiencing an unseemly level of schadenfreude right now.
