You know....I have no idea what to believe about Roger...what he did or didn't do. But, If I judged him the same way I judge others, which is based on how they treat me is a human being, this guy has moved way up in my book. Spent about 10 minutes with him Saturday and another 10-15 minutes with him just a little bit ago. I sensed very little ego. Loves the game of golf and treated me like he had known me forever. A real man's man that looks you in the eye when he is talking with you. I have seen him be nothing short of very accomodating when customers approach him and ask for his autograph.

I agree with you Kev....don't want to believe the steroids or the Mindy stories..he was a helluva competitor and I don't believe that Radomski guy JUST happened to have a reciept from Roger UNDER HIS FREAKIN TV....there..I feel better now

It's called 'saving face'. He needs all the support he can get.

Just messin' with ya'. I would have loved the chance to see Clemens. Still one of my favorites. Mostly because I still see him like I did when I was a kid, and I care so little about most of the pro sports now that changing my mind on him isn't worth it now.

Very cool that you did get to meet up with him...
