There is talk that Clemens may end up getting a Presidential pardon. That that is why he's been so adamant that he's never taken steriods/HGH. I guess Bush and him are buddies.
Can you imagine that. Bush giving Clemens a pardon. |

It's about that time in his Presidential life anyway so he might as well. I think if that happened it would make both Clemens and Bush look even worse than they already do now.

The next question becomes what about Bonds? Can he pardon one guy and not the other?

lol Buster Olney thinks the Mets need to discuss signing Barry Bonds. I'm not sure I could root for Barry even if he wore a Mets uniform. Then when Alou comes back the lineup would be like:
SS Reyes 2B Castillo 3B Wright LF Bonds CF Beltran 1B Delgado RF Alou C Schneider ...that lineup would need to score 10 runs a game to offset the awful corner outfield D |

Of course he can. In fact I'd be more surprised if he did pardon both of them than if he only pardoned Clemens.

LOL. The Yankees and Rays had a bench-clearing brawl today.
Yankees pitcher Heath Phillips plunked someone in the first and was immediately warned...and then when the Yankees batted Shelley Duncan slid at someone with spikes up despite the fact he was clearly out by a mile, and he promptly got ejected. Jonny Gomes came charging in from the outfield, and a brawl ensued.

Stupid.
People might disagree but I do think plowing a catcher down in ST was uncalled for. Obviously this is too. Have a feeling this is definitely gonna spill into the regular season. |

lol Shelley Duncan is incredible
He is just this big goof who likes to start shit. This is almost as good as when he signed a 5 year old Red Sox fan's ball: "Shelley Duncan: Red Sox Suck." |

Shelly Duncan is an idiot. He said after the first game there would be revenge, then he went out and came in spikes up the next game but then after that game says he was trying to knock the ball out of the 2nd basemen's glove lol
Yankee players do have a history of trying to hit ball out of peoples gloves though I guess, so maybe he really was?

Shelly Duncan obviously thinks baseball fans are dumb

"I saw it a couple times," Duncan said Thursday. "I still don't understand why they were as upset as they were."

If Cash can catch the knuckle ball I am all for it. I mean Mirabelli is the man and everything but his bat has been awful the last few years, like really awful. He shouldn't be a back up catcher on a team this good

Duncan is a fringe player at best still, I guess he thinks he'll become the character guy. A ball to the head ought to solve that line if thinking.

I just saw a piece on ESPN First Take about this third baseman for the TB Devil Rays named Evan Longoria.. I only bring it up cause his minor league team played the Mississippi Braves last season in a game I went to.. It was hilarious cause the whole crowd chanted "EVA" every time he went to bat..

Evan Longoria could be this years Ryan Braun. Probably with a lower avg though. Kid is going to be a stud.

Longoria is going to be an All Star.....Until he is traded to a contender for more prospects just like him.
Vicious Cycle. TB will not compete even with a new Ball Park. Which is sad, because I really would like to see them contend, they have a great young team, but they atre buried in their division. Had they been put in a Western City, they would be the AL version of the Dbacks. |

Shit. Some big time news.
Red Sox vote not to board plane for Japan, play final spring game FORT MYERS, Fla. -- The Boston Red Sox are threatening to boycott their season-opening games in Japan unless their coaches and other staff are paid for making the trip. Mike Lowell has told The Boston Globe the team voted unanimously not to take the field for their final spring training game or to board the plane later Wednesday for Japan. Manager Terry Francona and his players were upset after learning staff members are not going to get a $40,000 stipend. The Boston Herald reported players insisted part of their agreement to make the trip included the fee -- for them and the coaches. "I did not have an off day yesterday. I had the phone glued to my ear because I was promised some answers and I haven't even received a phone call," Francona said Wednesday. "So I'm a little bit stuck. What I want to do this morning is get excited to play a baseball game and what I ended up doing is apologizing to the coaches and being humiliated." The World Series champions are scheduled to begin their season against Oakland on March 25 and 26. The Red Sox clubhouse was closed to reporters because of the dispute and the team had not taken the field for batting practice before its last scheduled spring training game in Florida against Toronto. "We had an agreement," Curt Schilling, one of a handful of Red Sox players who talked with Major League Baseball on ground rules for the trip, told ESPN's Claire Smith. "Some of the promises have already been taken away, now this," Schilling said. "As far as the players are concerned, [withholding the coaches' bonuses] can't happen." ''When we voted to go to Japan, that was not a unanimous vote,'' Lowell told the Globe, "but we did what our team wanted us to do for Major League Baseball. They promised us the moon and the stars, and then when we committed, they started pulling back. It's not just the coaches, it's the staff, the trainers, a lot of people are affected by this. "I'm so super proud of this team," Lowell said, according to the Globe. "When we put it to a vote it was unanimous, we're all in agreement that we're not going to put up with this.'' That the players would consider such action "is really appreciated, to say the least," Red Sox hitting coach Dave Magadan told Smith. "It means as much as the money itself. "While we're very fortunate, a lot of people don't realize what we do. It's nice to get recognition from the players." |
