Thought it was a good day for a double header. Now I’m not saying I think Roger Clemens is/was/ever has been a liar, but, well, I’m still not convinced we got the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Clemens Clemency
Today’s View From the Bull Pen
Wasted Time
Growing up in the late 60's and early 70's, I was a huge NBA fan. From Wilt the Stilt to Jerry West to Nate Archibald to my personal favorite, Pete Maravich, I loved the game and watched it as often as I could. Somewhere along the way, sometime after Magic and Bird, I lost that loving feeling, and, unless I just have to watch it for work purposes, I avoid The NBA at all costs.
This cartoon is as clear a comment about those feelings as I can make in less than 100 words. Inspired by the Eagles song "Wasted Time" which I recently heard while watching the History of the Eagles DVD, I think it is my definitive statement about how I really feel about the NBA. It all seems like a colossal waste of time. Don't you agree?As always, your readership and your comments help to make the world go round, so please continue to add them. I will try to do a better job of responding.
There isn't a way to leave comments in the Bull Pen so please feel free to leave your comments under the latest cartoon that I post.

Well, as the esteemed Dr. House would say, “Everybody lies.”
Dear Drew,
Hold on to this picture. The firefighter might be needed again after the verdict of the Sardousky (forgive spelling) trial.
All the best

Good morning From Omaha,
Clemons has had his day in court and walked. He had a chance to get into the hall of fame but from what I understand he will not get in, anything soon.
He knows what really happened during the last few years of his career and will have to live with what he has done. I guess as long as he can like the man he see’s staring back at him from the mirror we should withhold our judgements.
In regards to louis’s comments the fireman is needed to hose off the public from all the filth coming from the courtroom. One person can lie, but 9 or ten saying the same thing. hmmm
We shall see what the jury says.
Strive for excellence, nothing but your best.

Do we ever really learn “the truth” in these situations?
The result of this fiasco is that the taxpayers are stuck with the bill, because the feds can’t seem to keep their noses out of the drama that professional sports can create. The verdict in the Clemens case confirms three things for me: 1) the league doesn’t have as much influence and power, as it thinks it does; 2) the legal process works – though the outcome isn’t always what we expect; and 3) I much rather support minor league teams, like the St. Paul Saints, because those players really play for the love of the game, and not for the love of money.
