I know, what was the guy thinking? Well, aside from the fact that his job is to take pictures.

Although I don’t envy Clemens’ position, I also imagine that a different decision-making process over the past 20-25 years might have helped him avoid all this. Like, I sympathize but not too much, you know?

Anyway, he’s got some good quotes here, mostly about steroids and the Mitchell Report:

Everything’s been said that needs to be said on that. We’re moving forward. It’s baseball time… I think you ought to be asking baseball questions. I think it’s time to move on and get on with baseball.

I’m picking up two things from this:

1. Clemens doesn’t talk to the same people I talk to, because I haven’t found anyone who shares his opinion that “everything’s been said that needs to be said.” I know a lot of people (myself included) who are sick of the situation, and sick about it, but that’s not quite the same thing.
2. Clemens knows more about baseball reporting than baseball reporters do. Only ask questions that he deems appropriate. It’s the New World Order, yo.

In other news, Congress agrees more with the people I talk to than with Clemens. Seems pictures have surfaced (ah, now we see why he snapped at the photographer!) that place him at Jose Canseco’s party. Clemens, you recall, swore under oath that he didn’t attend said party.

Oh, that Jose Canseco. [Pregnant pause. Nervous laughter.] All I can say is that must’ve been one heckuva party.

Of course, there is a simple solution: Judge Alex.
