Bonds convicted of obstruction of justice

The discredited Ting testimony was crippling when it was contradicted. The Government did a horrible job of prosecuting this case considering the time and money expended. Bonds never spends an hour in jail.
As far as the Rocket goes, his case is completely different. You don't have an Anderson who would go to jail to protect his friend, you have a witness who wants to see Clemens buried. I think Clemens is is serious trouble.

I agree that Clemens is in serious trouble, and the trial will be in Washington, so he may not get much sympathy from the jury as Bonds possibly did as Peter S. alluded to in the prior post. Although Clemens' trainer may have credibility issues, it could very well be that Andy Pettite is the pivotal witness that makes Clemens go down in flames.

it is my now my single prized bond's artifact.
