- Roger Clemens talks with Joe Buck about the steroids investigation on him and what it did to his career after.
#MLB #worldseries - Sport
The fact that Dale Murphy, Andruw Jones, and Curt Schilling aren't in the HOF is ridiculous.
It's a virtue signaling Marxists who keep Schilling out.
My HoF has Eric Davis & Dave Parker in it
@@princebowie9950 Dave Parker 100% for sure needs to be in - had E. Davis not gotten sick, I think he would have eventually made it in (numbers would obviously be better).
On March 20, 1973, the Baseball Writers' Association of America held a special election for the Baseball Hall of Fame. They voted to waive the waiting period for Roberto Clemente, due to the circumstances of his death, and posthumously elected him for induction into the Hall of Fame, giving him 393 out of 424 available votes, for 92.7% of the votes. 31 were against it. Amazing.
...pete rose and others too
Put him on a polygraph. How 'bout that big boy?
Did that make you feel big little buddy?
Those have been PROVEN to not work.
Keyboard tough guy in the comments. Did that make you feel bad little boy?
You're all big boys!
Bud Selig the commissioner for the entire steroid era is in the Hall of Fame.
Selig was the biggest crook he was dirty knowing what was taking place. Probably got paid off.
Ok Roger is adamant about the investigation being biased and unfair but he never said he did not take PEDs!
He said it 10 times with 10 negative tests.
Classic method of liars.
@@corycole5677 good enough for me.
@tonymeinerding7463 innocent until proven guilty.
Clemens is a druggy that loves himself.
One of the greatest pichers ever!
Yes. But he’s also a lying, arrogant jackass
He was a cheater. The last seven years do not count.
One of the Greatest cheats ever!! F’em
Did he ever deny to Joe that never took steroids???
No
Clemens and Bonds should be in the Hall a while ago. On the clean years alone.
None of the cheaters should get in. Period
If you pull up a seat for Canseco, Clemens wouldn’t be talking like that
100% and I was always a Texas and Clemons fan,,,until this.
What about the broken bat you threw at Mike Piazza?
"What broken bat? When? Where?"
“I thought it was the ball”
Arrogance led him to cheat and Arrogance is what keeps him running his mouth.
He is a cheater.
So when did he cheat? East dates only
Did you get that straight form ESPN Buddy?
@@TB-ni4ur Ahhh, you love the steroids era. Mr. Selig, is that you?
@@sr-ty7gb You did. Good to know...
@TB-ni4ur Sure thing Bud.
If I repeat a lie often enough, in time I’ll start to believe it myself.
That is correct Mr. Trump.
Are you Donald Trump???🧐
So you're still lying about it in a nutshell.
I’ll never believe him.
me either.
Why would a picture take gear? It’s the worse thing for your tendons and joints , they were all probably copying each other running that magic cream and using testosterone, which does nothing for a picture
@@davee7344 P I T C H E R. Learn to speel yeu moran.
This guy was a good pitcher but a real jerk!
Mentioned 82 times in Mitchell report
Pretends he knows nothing about it lol!! Bro you are guilty as hell..
Clemens is a narcissist and a frighteningly good liar. He definitely took PEDs, and the guy doesn't have the integrity to just admit it. Credit to Andy Pettis for having the integrity to tell the truth about Himself and Clemens.
Sounds exactly like Lance Armstrong.....
Pants on fire
If he doesn't want to come clean about it, I can understand that since baseball still hasn't forgiven Pete Rose despite confessing his sins. I just wish he'd be satisfied that he beat the rap and just shut up about it instead of insulting our intelligence and pretending this was all a huge conspiracy against him.
He literally says he doesn’t feel like talking about this anymore. So if Joe asks him a question he should just stare at him? Also Pete Rose “confessing his sins” he didn’t come clean until he could make money off a book. And even then he still wasn’t being completely honest! Get a clue.
Pete Rose NEVER confessed his sins. He's saying what he thinks MLB wants to hear so he can be in the HOF.
I say put him in the HOF. But....
keep the lifetime ban from participating in anything. Including his HOF induction. If he wants to fully come clean, then do his part to talk to young players every spring training about gambling and be the spokesperson for what NOT to do? Then maybe let him back "in".
He still feels like he did nothing wrong. It's like a dude who's sorry for cheating on his wife. He's sorry he got caught. Not sorry that he did it.
Greatest hitter in my lifetime. Also possibly one of the biggest pieces of sh*t human beings as well. Both can be (and are) true.
The Mitchell Report was done by a guy associated with the Red Sox so of course there was Yankee players named but nothing about David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez and all of a sudden they're named after the report came out. That was either intentional or incompetence
David and nomar was on the list.
Mo Vaughn also on the list
Ortiz another dirtbag.
This guy will never own up to his mistakes and sins. Lying, cheating, cheating on his wife with a minor, ego, arrogant, narcissistic punk, etc. God gets the last word bruh. Nowhere to run.
Sounds like you have the last word eowen---I am glad you are not my judge.
Everyone was doing em. Clemens still one of the greatest to do it.
The moment he threw the broken bat at Mike Piazza in the WS for no reason was the moment all doubt about steroid use was gone.
Lance Armstrong ALSO claimed he passed every drug test he ever took……and we know how that turned out.
It turned out that the guys who blew the whistle on him tested positive too. LoL
So when did Clemens fail a test
@TL2354 you’re not bright. Bonds & McGwire never failed tests. What’s ur point. It’s common knowledge it’s how he salvaged his career.
Just because you never fail a drug test doesn’t mean you don't do drugs. Bonds’ drug supplier explained the entire scam Bonds pulled. Armstrong laid the same line of BS on gullible fans just like Bonds, McGwire, and Clemens did. All of them are drug cheats.@@michaeljaffee-eo6mr
@@michaeljaffee-eo6mrthey are all doing it.
Don't do him the "Favor" since he wouldn't appreciate it anyways.
David Ortiz first ballot Hall of Famer while using Peds without being close to the player of Bonds or Clemens. It's an absolute joke.
Ortiz is one of the most overrated baseball players of all time.
@@PoliticallyIncorrect90definitely bonds and Clemens are goats but Ortiz is not overrated your out of your mind.
Big Papi overrated? You must be a Yankee fan! Sorry about your bad luck!
@@paulscott6998I don’t know if he is overrated so to speak. But there are double digit players who deserve to be in ahead of him. Especially when you consider that he DID test positive. No matter how many times Red Sox fans cried and lied about it. It’s pretty hypocritical to say the least.
I love how some of the Clemens jock sniffers on here are like “he never did steroids, he should be in the HOF!” And the others are like “others did steroids and they’re in the HOF, he should be too!”
Buck basically owns him with that question about “ok you say the HOF can kiss your ass but also keep trying to clear your name…”
His own friend Andy p. Sold him out !
(And Rodger is the one who helped push him)
Well said.
Thing about Rocket Vs the rest of the Mitchel Report players is he is the Only one in there that there is no evidence against him. Everyone else has receipts or checks. Not Roger. Plus if his use of 2 months in 3 seasons When legal for total of less than 6 months of a 25 year career is “Angelic” compared to other players of the Era. That Represents only 5% of his entire career!
And How do some “clean” superstars got immune of allegations despite the physical changes and improvements over Age they get a pass? As a former Bodybuilder and Professional Exercise Therapist over 25 years, I scratched my head to see them go unchallenged
Take a lie detector and be done with it - and yes I know it's not admissible.
They’re not reliable
@PhillyJohnny they're not admissible because they're not accurate.
He did not do it correctly. You do not have to worry about trick questions if innocent. Narcissist extreme.
No shame in not being in the Hall Of Shame. Steve Garvey and Kurt Schilling ain’t in there either. Roger is in Great company.
Long time Red Sox fan here. Roger deserves to be in the hall and so does Pete rose
Juicer, you don't get better with age. Last season in Boston he was 10-13 with a 3.63 era. At 35 he signs with Toronto & goes 21-7 with a n era of 2.05. Follows up with 20-6 and an era of 2.65 at 36. Enough said..
If Pete Rose is banned for life … this Juicer should NEVER be allowed in!!!
… just like Aaron’s HR numbers conveniently increased into his later 30s after he started ingesting “greenies” … but all anyone ever wants to zero in on is Bonds
Babe Ruth is still the real HR king in my mind
He did lead the league in strikeouts in 1996, and McNamee wasn’t there in 1997, nor was he in 2004, 2005. I’m not saying I believe him, but what you said about someone not getting better with age generally applies to late 30s, not mid 30s.
Could he have had a better record cause he was on a better team in Toronto
@@dadesoldier305 in 97 they were better, in 98 no.
Dude YOU 100% juiced, You lied, You cheated....You are not a victim! You did this to yourself. You in your late 30's and you had incredible stats based on roids...thats why you did them. Admit accept and move on...quit blaming the investigators.
He may have closed the chapter but we will never forget.
I’m a baseball fan.. Long time baseball fan..
I couldn’t care less about what you did to further your career, but I do care about being lied to..
Just say they were slinging hundreds of millions of dollars around, and it got crazy..
Which cheek does he want us to kiss? The one w the “B12” shots?
He’s more hot about this then I expected but he is not telling the truth. I think the part the irritates me most about the complete sociopathic athlete users - the Lance Armstrongs, Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens- is the extent to which they’ll throw under the bus the trainers/ suppliers who gave them steroids or HGH. Brian McNamee supplied Clemens and he supplied Andy Pettitte for the very brief time he used (on Clemenses recommendation) to recover from injury. Rocket has been telling himself this lie so long now. Thing he is, to get in now he would need to convince a committee of HOFers and his chances were much better with the sportswriters. The HOFers don’t want him.
Good Luck 🍀
He may not have injected anabolic Steriods, but that doesn't mean that he didn't use some form of performance altering substances.
Own it Roger - that's your only way forward.
He owns 10 negative test results. So what's your moot point?
The only path forward is when the voters stop acting like holier than thou hypocrites. Bud Selig oversaw that era and is in the hall of fame. There are several players that took PED’s that are in the hall. The fact that people still care like their life was affected in any way is pretty laughable to say the least.
Sorry. Was a big fan but he keeps making it worse by lying. Really disappointed with Roger.
David Ortiz took steroids and is in the Hall of Fame
Seriously? You know that personally? Just admit you’re a Yankee fan and be honest about it!

Video Unavailable.
Roger was a badass pitcher specifically now that he rocking those gator skin skin boots
Lance Armstrong’s brother in arms. He would be kicking’ like a mule instead of trying to explain his way out if he was innocent. Same schtick as armstrong.
@josephfuller7008 all of Armstrong's main competitors were doing it too, so the playing field was level.
Roger should not care about the HOF. He won in the World Series twice on 2 different teams. Had a great record. Has his money. What is so good about having a plaque in an old building in Cooperstown? Not that big a deal. He can move on. He is right in saying the joy of the HOF is gone whether or not he gets in. But maybe he deserves not to be in it. What would change for him if he is voted in? He kind of likes taunting them anyway, can be the tough guy.
Keep it interesting, topic of converstaion in certain circles, Billion dollar industry and historical past time that if you never played youre still a fan and even enjoy going to a game....
Anyone who gets butt hurt by professionals using PED’s clearly don’t understand one damn thing about them, or how they actually work. They don’t make the athlete, especially in a sport like baseball.
I was a fan of Roger’s, but he cheated and until he admits it he doesn’t deserve to be in the Hall of Fame. He’s just not worthy of being a MLB Hall of Famer.
admitting anything does not help. Just look at Pete Rose
@@rtmhrj Pete’s not the example you want to use. He lied for years before admitting it and did so many, said so many things that will keep him out of the Hall of Fame. At least while he’s alive.
Nice way to twist the story Rogg
You can cheat baseball,you can cheat yourself, but you can't cheat life.
Ortiz and Pudge are in but not the "Rocket"? Absolute Travesty!
the "accuser's" were the fans of MLB
Get Pete Rose into the HOF, then get the rest of the
pete rose will be in the hof once he dies - thats really sad and stupid but it is what it is - best hitter of all time and he isnt even in the hof
His character or lack thereof actually bothers me more than whether or not he did steroids.
Joe: What about the Andy Pettitte quote?
Roger: That's right
Joe: THAT...THAT IS A DISGUSTING ACT BY ROGER CLEMENS
Roger: ...
Piazza ortiz i rodriguez used
Right, RC. You cheated and that’s what determined your game.
Yea yea yea, mo money!
He shouldn’t have used roids !! He doesn’t care about going into the HOF because he knows he used !!
The Boston Red Sox let him walk away, they noticed his decline. He took it personally, got angry, turned to performance enhancing drugs (steroids, human growth hormones) and he resurrected his career. So sick of liars in sports.
Lock the doors let none of them in
I think he's a liar like almost 100% of the players who used steroids, get caught and use some ridiculous excuse as to why it happened. You can say what you want about Canseco but he was the only one who admitted using the juice.
He's the only one dumb enough to think it would help him sell more books.
🕺
People don't have a clue about drugs in athletics. I think people would be absolutely shocked if they actually knew who took what and how often. People need to remember, this is about money. When money is on the line, corruption is e everywhere. Just look at the 1997 & 1998 home run totals. You got chipper Jones hitting more than he ever has and a huge drop off after two seasons. And yet, nobody thinks anything about it. The facts are nobody will ever know and that whole era is tainted. Roger should get in because so many people in the HOF were on speed or some kind of drug through the years.
I Think Roger Should Come out one Day and Admit he did the Stuff he Was Using and I Believe he Didn’t have Lie To Prove to The Boston Gm at the Time that he Was Wash Up! I Hated him as a Yankee,But with or without Steroids he had Major League Stuff as a Pitcher Him And Pedro Martinez were Great at Throwing The Baseball like 🔥 I Respect Pedro Who Brought the World Series Championship to Boston and as for Mr.Clemens he had Talent as Well! I Just Wish he Would Tell the Truth and I do Respect them as Players Who Played Well Steroids or none all!
Just say, YES, I did it like everyone else.
He sounds bitter, upset and sad knowing other players got away with it and are in the hall of fame. He was more less 'singled' out like others like bonds and sosa. Seems like they put the hammer down more on the negative energy players of that era. The ones that might have been too cocky or were rude to reporters. It may not be fair..but it Is reality.
The "ROCKETT" , 125 pitches at 90mph. vs MOE ,42, 24 Pitches at 91mph. ??
did you just compared a starting pitcher vs a closer?
One doesn't deserve to be sited impaired because of the others were not prePAIRing, somehow leds back to Clinton administration.?
Roger was glowing in the dark by the end of his career. They should keep him out of the HOF until he shows some contrition.
The 90s was a shit show for baseball. It all started when a nosey reporter went through Mark McGuire’s locker and found a bottle of pills. And Canseco was the biggest snitch on the planet
Doesn't affect my life, therefore......WGAF!!
Number one he did PED’s. Number two he was telling the truth about it being his job. It was all about money and making more of it. So he did what he had to do as many of them did, to make more money. Now that he’s retired, getting into the Hall of Fame might mean something but he’s not gonna sweat over it or at least say so on the outside. but he years away from the applause of the crowd and the recognition and all the positive articles of all the wondrous things that he did and I’m sure he feels like he would like some more accolades. Some more retention. It’s only natural. We all do. So to say he doesn’t want it but kind of sorta he does make sense. On a sidenote, if you gonna keep guys like that out, take out the ones who are in who really don’t belong in.
He went from loved to hated by fans real quick....hated for the lying...not really the steroids...
Screw all the cheaters.
Athletes are under pressure and expected to perform at a high level day in and day out. If taking drugs helps by making everyone on the team and especially those in high office happy what's the complaint about? Many Americans take some sort of drug everyday to make them perform their daily tasks which they can not do on their own. Taking drugs is the American way as so much money is invested in it. Just look at TV commercials. Besides fast food, drug commericals are in shown literally in many commercials!
Like he said, who cares? It’s just a job.
In the words of the great Axel Foley: You were lying’ your ass off.
😅
In the words of the great David Goggins "You'll never meet a hater doing better than you."
So, Roger is not admitting to this? C'mon
Once a TX Dik always a TX Dik.
Just another Lance Armstrong lier.
I will NEVER believe Clemens didn't take steroids. Put him on a lie detector. Just because he sounds convincing doesn't prove his innocence. He has had decades to make himself a nice little story.
Why does a guy like mr waxmen have a opinion about baseball at all?
Roger Clements is one of the greatest competitors and greatest pictures of all time but there’s no doubt he took steroids, but it was a much do about nothing because it made the game better when it needed to have a resurgence for the strike they let it happen because they needed to.
Yep, well your entire circle was busted with steroids... and you were the only one that said, no, not me.....its tough....
If everyone is doing it, it's not cheating. Only a fool would refuse to take steroids when every other star is taking them. That could cost you your job and millions due to underperformance. There are hundreds of pro athletes that would not have made it to the professional level without the use of steroids.
Him not in HOF is shameful.
Same with BB & MM
& Pete
Bonds was the biggest cheater of them all. His head was 2X after roids.
Pete gambled…
@@robertkauffman8137no he wasn’t. And had a HOF career before the juice
@@lawrencefranck9417 no he wasnt - he was a tiny guy who could run and steal bases and hit 20-25 hrs - after the juice he was so big he couldnt steal bases anymore
@@lawrencefranck9417 So did Barry Bonds, but it wasn't good enough. They had to juice. Cheaters don't belong in the HOF.
He's getting close to Barry "Steroid" Bonds in becoming the Biggest P.O.S. that played the game !!!
Steroids were not on the banned list when he played.
But they were illegal if not obtained from a physician for a legitimate medical reason.
@@stevenmiller7747 most got them thru Drs and even team staff.
@@stevenmiller7747 what difference does that make? Driving drunk is also illegal but you don’t get banned from the HoF for doing it. Painkillers, especially opiates are illegal too without a legitimate medical condition but they are abused by a ton of players. The HoF is full of players who committed crimes. The point is, if it was not banned by baseball then it has no bearing on a player’s status.
Worse than a cheater is an unrepentant cheater.
Regardless of Roger's situation, The Hall of Fame is a joke. The voters have their own agendas, just like awards in any other field. To merely become a major league baseball player is the pinnacle of playing the game. Anything after is just icing on the cake.
Examples of how the Hall is joke:
1) the all time hits leader is not in
2) the all time home run leader (also most MVPs all time) is not in
3) pitcher with most Cy Young awards is not in
Ok, yes, these players are believed to have cheated, so they're not in. But it's still strange, right?!?! How about some more legit reasons why the Hall is stupid
4) Harold Baines is in
5) Mariano Rivera is the only player unanimously voted in. This is not to say he didn't deserve this honor. I'm just pointing out that somehow at least one voter left off their ballot the likes of Cal Ripken Jr, Willie Mays, Ken Griffey Jr, Rickey Henderson, Nolan Ryan, Tony Gwynn, Greg Maddux, and so many more. How dare these players not be voted in unanimously!
6) Lou Whitaker is not in, but Alan Trammell is??? Not only did they play their entire careers next to each other to form one of the greatest double play duos of all time, but their career stats are eerily similar. Yet, Sweet Lou of left out somehow?
7) Curt Schilling is not in. There is only one other eligible pitcher with over 3,000 K's not in the Hall, and it's Clemens (Verlander, Scherzer, Sabathia will all be in soon enough). Not to mention Schilling is a playoff hero, always stepping up in the biggest games. He is not liked by the press, and that shouldn't matter. His play on the field was top notch and he deserves the credit
There's more of course. Add your reasons why the Hall of Fame is a ridiculous thing
What has this guy actually contributed to the human endeavor on planet earth? Same for any "sportsman" who throws, catches, hits or kicks balls? In ancient Rome, before its demise, the people cared for nothing but "bread and circuses". Clemens (and numerous others) worked in the circuses.
That era of baseball was awesome steroids or not
Joe Buck is the worst
Rocket 🚀 you belong in the Hall of Fame
Cheater looks like he's eating a lot of Cheetos.
They are juicing now.. get real
Top 10 all time pitcher- HOF
Roger Clemens will never get into the HOF, and even based on his numbers regardless of his rampant roid use, do not justify him being there. He sucked.
