Not in Hall of Fame
We talk about Roger Clemens here a lot don’t we?

Let’s do it again!

Recently, we discussed Clemens and the Baseball Hall of Fame and in a recent interview with 98.5, the Sports Hub in Boston had this to say:

“It would obviously be a Boston hat…That’s where I got my start and my nickname.  It’s where I grew up…I’m not worried about it.  I don’t confuse my career with my life, or refuse to let one person define what or who I am as a person.  The guys that are voting are great.  It’s their opinion and they have a right to do what they want to do.  I have zero control over it.  I know how I did it and I did it right.  I did it to the fullest and I loved it.  That’s all you can do as an athlete when you go out and perform not only for your teammates but your fans and the city you play for.  It’s an award. Go ask any of my teammates, that’s what means the most to me. I love that I got to play 13 years at Fenway Park, right there where Ted Williams and Carl Yastrzemski ran around. It was awesome. That’s something you can never take away from me. I don’t worry about rumors that are carried by haters or anything like that.”

So what do we know from this?

We know that Clemens should he have a chance to get into the Hall, wants to go in as a Red Sox, but is that even possible?

Kudos to Clemens for playing the game in that he ‘doesn’t care if he gets in’ but all of you, myself and Roger knows otherwise. 

Still it is always news to us when a prospective Hall of Fame talks about the Hall!
