Pettitte: Clemens Told Me He Used HGH

Yankees pitcher Andy Pettitte has told Congress of a conversation he had with Roger Clemens in which Clemens admitted using Human Growth Hormone, ABC News has learned.
Pettitte told Congress that the conversation occurred sometime in 1999 or 2000 in Clemens' gym, according to lawyers familiar with the investigation.

It is looking pretty bad for Rocket. When your best friend betrays you, it is time to come clean.

Pettitte's testimony puts this over the top, I think. Clemens is in serious trouble now.

Seems like Clemens bailed on Pettitte first. Never stuck up for him for a second. So I think Pettitte just decided he was gonna tell the truth no matter what. He came clean about himself; I think that makes him very credible in terms of fingering Roger too.

Over a conversation years ago?...come on...

Nobody in baseball is clean...or everyone is clean until a court of law proves them otherwise...I don't care which really...

But I hate this playground finger pointing crap...

McNamee for one got pretty much called a "liar" by Congress...and he had lied in a police investigation of a rape before...so how is that for a counter weight in this stupid waste of tax payer money.

Clemens was tripping over his own feet, he said Pettitte was honest but misremembered their conversations. Misremembered Is that even a word

On the other hand McNamee got called a liar...so...let the circus continue at the tax payer's expense...

At this point, do we really, really care? Hell its not going to amount to much expect a waste of money and a black eye for the MLB...HOF voters already are keeping Big Mac out...and Barry Bonds don't seem as awful anymore.

Well gotham Not everyone in baseball is juicing, theyre several players who are clean, and secondly Clemens shouldnt have played games and just admitted to it like the other players have done, but he wants to make an ass out of himself in court so I have NO sympathy for him, Pettite remembered exactly what clemens said to him it doesnt matter how long ago it was, as far as wasting tax payers money whats new..

1) Dude there is no way to know...either all clean or all dirty...and move on with it...

2) Who cares about Clemens? He keeps his millions and I foot the bill along with the American Tax Payer...move on...

3) Pettitte is no better or worse...and Hell, that's one way to treat your so call Idol...I would not hang someone on a convo we had and my recollection of it.
