The world would have been better served had Georgie sent the 18 million around the world to help eradicate hunger, poverty and disease than to give it to a mercenary probably over-the-hill pitcher whose value at this point in his career is marginal as far as the Yankees are concerned.

Is it me or are all Boston Fans bitching and complaining about George having the nuts to open his wallet and pay Roger?? I will be willing to bet ANYONE ANY amount of money that if your GM would have paid and gotten Roger you wouldnt say a damn thing about it.. Everyone said he was too old last season and he proved everyone wrong.. he will do that once again this season.Comment

Roger is solid and probably one of the best pitchers I will see in my lifetime, but the guy is way overpaid and hyped. His desire for the spotlight is sickening, imo. And take this from someone who was in Houston during his last "relaunch". I rooted for Houston and bitched about Roger all the time; however, it was cool to watch a legend pitch. $18M for 45 year old pitcher is not the best way to spend your money imo. I wish you the best with your Roger landing as I will be watching this year....Comment

I guarantee you that if Theo had paid Clemens what Georgie did, a lot more Sox fans than not would have complained that he was way overpaid and not worth it.
Thankfully, Sox management had the sense to step aside and let Yanks have him when they heard Clemen's absurd asking price.Comment

With you AGAIN TMAC!! OVERHYPED???? Are you kidding me?? BEST beyond a DOUBT Modern Day PITCHER hands down. It amazes me how we take someone that is good as The Rocket, and say he's overhyped. And other players who have done NOTHING and they are the second coming......shows how unrealistic some of you are. And what do some of you always tell me? QUIT HATING!! Hey, if you want to complain about Georgie spending his money...HIS MONEY..go make yourself millions and buy a team. Until then be THANKFUL you get to witness the GREATEST Modern Day Pitcher ever. Number 3 all time huh Kappy!"Just livin' the dream"Comment

7-3 in the seventh Rocket was solid with 7 strikeouts......Hate all you want!! YOU all would take Roger on the team you are a FAN of. He's just good. I love when people complain about how much $$$$ he makes. Like if someone offered you that kind of cash you send it "around the world to cure the worlds woes" PLEEEEASE!!! Anyone who complains about Rogers cash is J-E-A-L-O-U-S!!! Nice outing Rocket and WELCOME BACK!!!"Just livin' the dream"Comment

7 K's true-----against one of the worst teams in MLB----Batting 250.....You failed to mention, though,one of the worst team in MLB got 3 Earned runs off of him in 6 Innings for a 4.50 ERA..........Originally posted by soonerbud
After he faces the hitting of the Indians, Tigers, D'Rays, Blue Jays, Angels, and a few more, we'll talk then.....until then enjoy yourself, throw your slurs out there, and be your controversial self.....IMO....kapt
He is good.....always has been.....How can you so easily and arrogantly praise one good athlete (Clemens), and totaly cut down another good athlete (James), if not to let the world know only what you say counts, and your totaly biased.....kapt
You prove it everytime you open your mouth....give it a break, let the season end, and then we'll see what we got....kapt

How can I praise him and not James Kappy?? Easy in the games biggest stage.........HE WINS, HE IS PROVEN HE CAN WIN........why do you have to be so ugly with me? Do facts such as Clemens is GREAT bug you? Talk about my controversial self, I am ONLY controversial because I DON'T agree with YOU!! And I can't wait until the Rocket faces those other teams.........he will WIN! Why don't you rest up so you can watch your Lebron LOSE another game on basketballs grandest stage. I finally figured it out IMO you don't like anyone who disagrees with YOU. Better yet, try and figure out how many CHAMPIONSHIPS all those strike outs won NOLAN RYAN........because they won Roger a couple. Don't be a HATER Kappy."Just livin' the dream"Comment

ONE thing I wanted to point out to you from the Rockets press conference today Kappy, I am sure you were too busy trying to figure out how many Lebron would score in a LOSING effort tommorrow. IMO Roger was asked to grade his performance. His answer was that the grade of his performance was they WON. He doesn't need to grade it, the grade is in the outcome. Sooooo as I have said over and over and over again. Great players worry about ONE thing WINNING!! And GREAT players get it done. PERIOD. But I know he is just arrogant!"Just livin' the dream"Comment

roger had many chances early in his career with the sox to carry them and floundered on more than one occasion and then went to the best team in baseball and won a ring......To me that is slightly different. In Nolans era he could not whore himself out to the highest bidder...Different era....However, i do agree Clemens is the greatest of our time along with Maddux, but i have heard many say neither one of them compare to Tom Seaver......I would like to see Clemens take a steroid test though to quell the rumorsOriginally posted by soonerbudComment
