Boston Red Sox Baseball Dog Puppy Pet Collar - Small Officially Licensed MLB
Customer Review: Go Sox!!
Great product, much better quality than the officially licensed Pats collar I got around the same time. The little tag engraves nicely too. Absolutely essential for the seasoned K9 sox fan.
The question for us is, are we loyal? Are we really loyal to our friends and family? Are we willing to stand by our loved ones no matter what it costs us? Clemens wasn't; game over.
If Mr. Clemens has broken a law, he must be held accountable. That is fundamental to our society. That, of course, remains to be seen. But when it comes to how he has behaved in public, I am reminded of the words, "he who is without sin, cast the first stone."
In baseball, merely bobbling the ball, can lead to a game-losing error. Roger Clemens' game-losing error: he bobbled his wife. Instead of holding on to her, he dropped her just as he had his teammate and personal trainer. He was willing to so arrogantly assert that his beloved wife had taken human growth to improve her appearance for a swimsuit photograph but that he had not taken it to prolong his illustrious baseball career.
In baseball, there is an element of statistics known as "errors" that are tracked closely. The most significant error to a baseball player is a game-losing error. When you commit this error the game is over. Too many of these and you have to sit on the bench. Of everything I have seen in the media recently there is one error, a game-losing error, committed by Roger Clemens.
Next, is Brian McNamee, Clemens' personal trainer for years. McNamee is now a villain. He brought this on himself. He lied and broke laws. He was left with only path to redemption: confession and truth-telling. He sat before the congressional committee and confessed that he had lied in the past. It is risky business for a liar to start telling the truth. He must be convincing; I thought he was. Clemens continued to berate and demonize McNamee. I couldn't help but to think of how close they must have been in recent days. This meant nothing to Clemens as he was willing to do everything to safe his own reputation.
I'm one of those people who has been extremely disappointed in Roger Clemens and the many other sports heroes who spend as much time with lawyers as they do coaches. I've been particularly disappointed by how Roger Clemens has conducted himself in the public eye after being accused of taking steroids and human growth hormone.
Before we throw stones at Roger Clemens maybe we should realize how similar we are to him. We are often guilty, even if to a lesser degree, of the same misbehavior as this all-star baseball player.
His error: disloyalty. First there is his good friend and teammate, Andy Petite, who was asked the same questions as Roger Clemens. Realizing that his own reputation would be tarnished, Mr. Petite told the truth about taking human growth hormone. His words also implicated Mr. Clemens. Andy Petite surveyed his situation and let his core value of truth-telling override his desire for public favor. In the end, I believe he will gain public failure by telling the truth.
