McNamee's Sicko "Evidence" Against Clemens (Wizbang Sports)

According to ESPN, the former trainer of Roger Clemens and Mitchell Report star witness, Brian McNamee, has allegedly turned over physical evidence that proves that Clemens took performance-enhancing drugs in 1998, 2000 and 2001

The evidence allegedly includes syringes, gauze pads and vials with Clemens' blood.

Right. And I'm Marie of Romania.

What kind of sick and twisted person retains 8-10-year old syringes, vials and gauze pads? Moreover, he turned over this "shocking new evidence" early last month.

The phrase we're looking for here, kids, is "contaminated and compromised evidence"--evidence that will be quickly and easily challenged by Clemens' defense team. Or doesn't anybody remember the OJ Simpson trial?

Other than for extorting money, what would motivate McNamee to keep such evidence? To defend himself should he get caught? Give us a break.

What a desperate and sick ploy by McNamee and his lawyers.

UPDATE: Sorry about the link not working. Yours truly is a bit technically challenged, so I'm trying to figure out what I did wrong.

Fair enough. But what kind of sick and twisted person saves a cum stained dress ...

Imhotep:

Extortion is the only reason Mcnamee would have saved the syringes.

As for the dress, extortion/money or "proof" you did what you said you did; most likely the latter...so you can brag to your friends.
