Clemens = Liar Liar Pants On Fire?

"But sir, I only watched pron at work once, and I did it to help my work productivity."

I'm sure those will go over very well.

I watch pron at work all the time and I've never gotten into any trouble at all. Sorry, I couldn't resist... I know typos just happen and I should have let it go.

I'm fairly certain Pr0n wasn't a typo. You have officially taken a step back in your Grammarian training.

I don't blame any of the players on the hot seat right now for saying anything or nothing at all. If they do say something it just sounds like a canned response written by their publicist and no one believes them anyways.

Tav got it.

It is sometimes used in legitimate communications (such as email discussion groups, Usenet, chat rooms, and internet web pages) to circumvent language and content filters, which may reject messages as offensive or spam.

"Honey, I only cheated on you once, and I did it to help our family."
"Your Honor, I only robbed one bank, and I did it to help my family."

Don't know why I'm adding to the porn analogy in my last post. But I realize I have more to say and that JTWoods other statements actually illustrate the opposite of what he wants them to say. I think his statements show how I believe right and wrong is not always so clear cut.

Are these people equal?

Yes. How many times they did it and the reason for their motivation do not change the fact that they all committed an action to which they knew there were consequences.

I'll basically agree with that, they both committed an action with consequences. But aren't the severity of their actions different? Shouldn't the consequences be different? Or is every "crime" equal?

Aren't they going to be punished differently?

I don't see anyone demanding that these players' wives divorce them. Wait. Is divorce a punishment or reward?

Im not saying this to defend Clemens' integrity, but his intelligence. Surely, after what has just happened to Bonds, he wouldnt deny it in the way he did if he really did take steroids. They had him using them pre 2002, so the punishment shouldnt be extremely harsh, so why lie? Im going against the grain and saying he is telling the truth. I just cant see how someone could come out and say this, and if he is lying, then he is dumb and he will get caught.

He says it so people won't attribute his stats to steroid use. There are also those that won't vote him into the HoF if they think he was using PEDs. Let's see if he testifies before congress under oath. Is he as stupid as Palmiero?

Technically Palmeiro wasn't lying if he didn't use steroids before he testified. He only tested positive afterwards.

Stamfar,

Kunne jeg tigge av du en sjenerøs donation av kontanterene, jomfruer, eller begge ?
