Rocket follow-up

So Roger Clemens apologized for "making mistakes in his personal life." He says this because of all the talk about him and Mindy McCready when she was 15. And the talk of his relationship with John Daly's ex-wife. And a Manhattan bartender. He claims that there were no relations with "a 15 year old girl." But that's about all he denied. Oh that and steroid/HGH use. I bet you anything that his extra-marital relations number in the dozens over a 20 year career. So Wilt had 20,000 but the Rocket only had 4? Sure. Anybody remember his prepared statement to Congress? He went on and on about how he had strong character and great morals because of how his mother and grandmother raised him. So they gave you the morals to say no to drugs but yes to cheating on your wife multiple times? I wonder what his mom really thinks of his character now.

One of my friends suggested that he must be mentally ill. He is not technically mentally ill, he just has the mentality toward lying that a 10 year old has but I think even 10 year olds admit it once this much info is out. This is what happens when you live 40+ years in society with every single person kissing your ass and giving and doing whatever you want. He lived a life with no real responsibilities except getting hitters out. If his character was suspect it didn't matter, everyone would just look the other way on that. His whole outlook on life is completely warped. Just like Bonds. These athletes mentalities are absolutely no different than the Paris Hiltons of the world. Which is why it is a joke to idolize professional athletes. You don't know them at all! You'd be laughed out of the building if you admitted idolizing Paris. Now I can understand kids doing it because they don't know any better but when I see adults kissing the asses of professional athletes I just cringe. I respect their ability to play a sport but that doesn't make them super heroes. Now I don't want to throw them all under the bus because there are a lot of decent guys out there but based on my experiences, I think they are in the minority.
