Roger's talking part II......and I do mean number 2

I was very disappointed with Mr. Clemens' little secret tape recording of his conversation with Mr. McNamee that was released in the press conference today. The following are my takeaways from that conversation.

1. Absolutely nothing new.

2. Why didn't Roger ask Brian why did you say that I took steroids?

3. Why did Roger lie to Brian and say that he did not know who was on his line after Brian said that nobody was on his line because it was a cell phone, and Roger had his lawyers set up the recording to begin with?

4. How can Roger say that he had no idea that his dear friend Andy Pettite was taking HGH? (that's like saying I know everything about you but that you are taking HGH?)

5. When Brian asked repeatedly what do you want me to do? Roger didn't say come down here and clear my name?

6. Apparently Brian is ready to go to jail for Roger just like Mr. Anderson did for Barry, but it may Brian who would be lying to Congress without the payoff this time.

I will be the first one to recant if Roger is "clean", but until then, I am still convinced that today's little dog and pony show accomplished NOTHING.
