GM Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Despite his efforts to branch out, McNamee kept a low profile until October of 2001, when he was suddenly in the New York tabloids. According to police reports, an employee of a St. Petersburg, Fla., hotel where the Yankees were staying had noticed a man and a woman apparently having sex in the hotel pool, while another man looked on from a few feet away. All three were naked in the pool. One of the men, Charles Wonsowicz, the former St. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Dierking Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 The one thing he has been CONSISTENT about is he does whatever he has to stay out of jail. With that, it was fully explained to him that he was given immunity, AS LONG AS HE TOLD THE TRUTH. It is literally a "get out of jail free" card. I could not fathom the circumstances that would make him want to lie about what he told the Mitchell group. There was not a reason to fabricate. To fabricate would be to his detriment. It would remove his immunity. He has certainly told the truth about Pettite. Why would he change that tune in relation to Clemens? Tell the truth on some, lie about others? That doesn't make logical sense. He certainly has gone a long way and become very imaginative if this is all indeed a lie. It would take some real initiative to go to those lengths. And why? Is it because, as Clemens lawyesr claim, he is trying to sink Clemens personally? If there was one thing out of that ridiculous phone call that Clemens taped, that I learned-It was that McNamee trailed Clemens like a puppy dog. Admired him. Was in awe of him. Still is to some degree. Why bury the man that you have mancrush over? In the end (no pun intended), we may never know the truth. But, if som eone asked me who I have to believe at this point, based on known evidence and just the way things have evolved, McNamee seems much more truthful than Roger. One man's opinion.

Zeebers Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Clearly, McNamee is not a model citizen, I mean he helped inject Clemens with Steroids and HGH, he even said so himself. As for his credibility in this case, Pettite's admission gave him credibility regarding Roger the Roider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugg Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Clemens did steroids. And? what else is there to say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavrik Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 POS's tend to hang out with other POS's. Why would Pettitte and Clemens continue to use the fact after something like this had come up? This proves McNamee is a douchebag, but doesn't vindicate Clemens in any way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arsis Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 From a purely scientific and forensic point of view any so-called evidence that mcnamee has is 100 pure garbage. There is no way that any of that would be admitted in court. There is no way to prove that he did not tamper with any of it, that he stored it properly. The dumbest thing Clemens could do would be to give them a fresh sample of that they could taint their evidence with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
