Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte, Chuck Knoblauch testifying on Capitol Hill

Found it C-Span 2.

It is hard to watch - Seems like many legislators are missing the point about this serious issue as most are looking for the perfect sound bite to make the national news.

Typical congressional stuff---they want to show all that elected them that they are doing something even if they know nothing with regard to what they are doing---but it is media exposure

If baseball had policed themselves, there wouldn't be any Congressional hearing.

Who are the Black Hawks?

Geesh!

Geesh is right - now Britney Spears is mentioned in the Congressional Hearings on Steroids!

I found that to be funny. But the rest of her statement was dead on.

That explains her hair loss.

Will the person with the most issues brought on to themself, please stand.

Bud ?
Spears ?

I am astounded at the rise in use of drugs for ADD, 28 to over 100 in a short time period?

Continuation of testimony on Capitol Hill reference "The Mitchell Report - Steroids in Baseball", is scheduled for Wednesday, February 13 at 10:00am. (Eastern Standard Time)

Below are some of the attendees whom have been invited and asked to give a deposition to the Congressional Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on Capitol Hill. Again, this will probably be televised "live" on C-Span... Stay tuned folks!

Chuck Knoblauch
Brian McNamee - Former Yankees Trainer
Kirk Radomski - Former Yankees Trainer & former Mets "batboy"

Whoah! You threw me a curve changing the title. I read the first line and saw the time, missed the date. I'm OK, it's just that where I'm at, it's 9.5 hours ahead of Eastern Standard time which is what I keep my computer set at. Things were not set correctly after vacation; new watch, new computer. I thought I had it fixed the other day, then this.

Now, what was that about ADD/ADHD? Never heard of it.

Chuck Knoblauch

I guess I missed something. Why is Knoblauch on the agenda?

Sorry for the confusion. I've just edited the post so it reads "a little better".

Trainer(s) named him as one of the players "they assisted" with this stuff... shall I just say,
