    Clemens is going to have to announce his retirement again

    Well it looks like Roger is going to have to retire so he can ask for another Hummer.

    His Hummer was stolen from his son's high school

    Roger, a proven liar, probably justs wants another Hummer. The "stolen one" is safely in his garage.

    Seriously, though, it takes balls to steal from Roger Clemens in Texas. The perp thatn proceded to piss on a picture of W and break a pair of longhorns over his knee

    After reading this article, is anyone kind of alarmed that they basically stopped just short of putting out an Amber Alert?

    Hmm... is that a death penalty offense in Texas.... or is that stealing grapes from the grocery store?

    I had one of those today too. I didn't know quite what to say. So much has happened since then and I've grown as an individual.

    That Hummer was given to him by the New York Yankees for his 300th win
    as much as I don't like the idea of Clemens keeping his retirement gifts, this is not the same.

    Environmentalists live in Texas? No way.

    How hard could it be to find an orange hummer?

    I am amazed at you guys. Still bitter at the Rocket from him doing what served his needs best.

    As if you wouldn't have taken the same path if you were in the same situation.

    Was the fake retirement tour really best for his needs?

    First off, there's no need to tell people they suck.

    Secondly, I think it's perfectly reasonable for people to have a dislike for Clemens, considering the way he played NY like a fiddle. How much of that "playing" was intentional we'll never really know, but still, the feelings of bitterness towards him are quite justified. He gave NY the impression that it was now his "home" - and made it very clear that he would retire a Yankee. He was given a "farewell" all around baseball, and got lots of ovations in many parks for that.

    I can't blame him for wanting to pitch more, but I can blame him for indiscretion when it comes to how he went about his fake retirement (announcing something he wasn't sure of, among other things).

    Re: Clemens is going to have to announce his retirement again

    Maybe Clemens should teach his son not to leave the doors of a $50,000-$100,000 car unlocked. Maybe cars don't often get stolen down there or maybe his son just figured they could buy another one if something happened to it. That said, given that it was given to him by the Yankees to commemorate his 300th win, I hope Clemens gets it back because it surely has some sentimental value to him.

    "He began letting Koby Clemens drive the orange Hummer to school after he signed a letter of intent last November to play baseball for the University of Texas, whose colors are burnt orange and white. Before that, Koby drove a black Hummer to school."

    This tragedy definitely saddens me more than the Barry Bonds story. Poor Kody.
