Clemens Come

On the heels of his game tonight with the Trenton Thunder minor league baseball team, I was perplexed in thinking/reading about Roger Clemens' return to pro baseball:

Why was the world so shook up when Jay-Z came out of retirement, to seemingly go 1x platinum, but Clemens comes out signing MILLIONS, and there's not even a word of resentment?

I guess in a sport where we can let dopeheads break records, anything is fair game...

I'm feeling local columnist Jeff Edelstein's column from today's Trentonian. Really hits the nail right on the head.

Not a word of resentment? Try asking anyone in Boston.

fucking media circus, from the pics I saw the next day. everyone was out, people were cramped... all to see an old (by baseball standards) ass man poorly pitch.

and they won. next game, we got stomped. 14 to God knows what...
