Roger Clemens Denying Steroids

The one where Roger loses a little more credibility for not making sense.

Roger Clemens spoke out today on ESPN’s Mike and Mike.  When asked about if he had ever used steroids or HGH, at one point he said:

you know guys, just let me add to it.  I mean… common sense… I have, our family has a history of heart conditions.  Uh my brother had a heart attack in his late 4o’s, my STEP DAD died of a heart attack.  Uh… I mean it would be suicidal for me to uh… even think about taking any of these dangerous drugs

Uh… Now I don’t know, cause I’m not a doctor (Family Guy ref, couldn’t find link), but I’m pretty sure when you are talking about family medical history, that your Step Dad’s medical conditions aren’t relevant.  Unless heart conditions are contagious (maybe I shouldn’t have gone to visit that nursing home last week… why is my left arm tingling?).  Roger boy is saying he thinks it would be suicidal to do steroids because of a medical condition that some one who isn’t related to himself has.  If that’s the case, I should probably watch out for diabetes because my mom’s friend’s 3rd cousin has it.

I like Roger Clemens, but he isn’t exactly making himself sound believable when he says stuff like this.
