Roger Clemens has been found guilty in the court of public opinion and honestly, that’s all that really matters. But for those that want the facts, Roger Clemens was actually found not guilty on all six charges in his perjury trial. Most casual fans probably don’t even know what he was on trial for. They know it had something to do with using steroids or performance enhancing drugs (Ped), but he was on trial for lying to Congress. Which is hypocritical in my opinion with how much Congress lies to the American public, but this isn’t the place for that rant.
Clemens was accused of perjury, making false statements, and obstructing Congress during his 2008 testimony about PEDs. The star witness for the government is publicly perceived to be as slimy as Clemens. Personal trainer Brian McNamee is linked to numerous alleged cheaters, and various drugs.

During that interminable period at the movies betwixt the dimming of the house lights and the appearance of the dancing popcorn, I have taken to playing a game to help pass the time. The game's objective is to guess a film's eventual Rotten Tomatoes score, based solely on the quality of its trailer. I take pride in my ability to hit pretty close to the center of the dartboard with some measure of frequency -- one of the more recent feathers in my cap being the score of 15 that I assigned to Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked. (As it turned out, I was too generous. It clocked in at a 13.) Perhaps I shouldn't pat myself too much on the back for that one, though. It was pretty hard to imagine anyone not named Armond White giving a favorable write-up to that piece of Chip. Upon viewing the trailer for Mission: Impossible -- Ghost Protocol,...

From 2000 to 2004, the Oakland Athletics were the greatest baseball team that never won the pennant.
Film fans can get that idea from "Moneyball," the new Brad Pitt movie about Billy Beane, the club's computer-genius general manager.
In that stretch, the A's won 98 games per year - 20 in a row at one point. First baseman Jason Giambi and shortstop Miguel Tejada both were named the American League's Most Valuable Player, and pitcher Barry Zito won the Cy Young Award. Oakland was in the playoffs four straight years - and lost in the first round every time.
There's another idea fans might not get from the movie: The "Moneyball" A's were loaded with steroid users.
Nine men who played for the A's between 2000 and 2004 used banned drugs, according to the Mitchell Report, former U.S. Sen. George Mitchell's official investigation of baseball's steroid era.
