Frickin' Clemens is a pussy. Let's see him try that in the National League. First he hits Bonds, then doesn't give him one decent pitch to swing at in three at-bats. I give the Yankee fans HATS OFF for booing Roger.

I have to agree somwhat with you. He may not have give him anything to hit but Clemens is also right! He was crowding the plate. The pitchers job is to get him off the plate. When his arm is in the strike zone, that's hard to do without hitting him. I think both are at fault.

A lot of hitters crowd the plate and they know they'll get brushed back. The difference here is that Clemens threatened Bonds, and that is a big no-no in baseball. It breeds bad blood and leads to retaliations and fights. If he wanted to hit Bonds, he should have just done it without shooting his mouth off beforehand.

I don't like Roger Clemens, as you might be able to tell.

He's a bit of a hot head...but if he dishes it out, he better be prepared to take it. He always seems to be involved in something that looks suspect.

If I was as good as Clemens and had his money, I would probably talk shyt too! I don't think if Bonds being at his best could hit Clemens at his best!!(consistantly)
