Old Man Clemens

To start out I can't even understand why the Red Sox even made a bid for Roger Clemens. He was a traitor once already for going to the Yankees and then he pretends to be interested in the Red Sox again when the entire time he knew he'd go to the Yankees. Well, I have to agree with Curt Schilling, we(Red Sox) don't need him. The Red Sox have the best record in the American League without him.

I know how these things work. Teams pay a ton of money for a player and they think that one guy can turn an entire team, or an entire season around. Well I can assure you it will take a lot more than Roger Clemens pitching to help the Yankees. Unless he can pitch every single game, I really don't think he's the answer.

I understand that Clemens was ultimately looking for a large paycheck, and I'm glad he's not with the Red Sox. However, if I were Roger Clemens, what would I do? Would I go to the Red Sox, the team with the best record in the AL and has the depth enough to go all the way? Or, do I go with the Yankees a last place team that has some great offensive players but has no depth in regards to pitching? Personally, I'd go with the Red Sox. I'm not saying that as just a fan, I'm saying it as someone whose ultimate goal would be to win a championship.

You can give me all the money in the world, but it will never buy a championship. Just look at George Steinbrenner he's spent a ton of money on the Yankees and where are they? Dead last.

Well I can promise you I will be watching the Red Sox play against the Yankees on June 1st at Fenway when Roger Clemens gets his first start. I hope he doesn't pull a hamstring.

**Edit** Josh Beckett rocks! 6-0 start is wicked awesome.
