I mean.. alot of people do drugs and no one cares. So his salary makes him more important that the rest of us? I don't get it

The reason they bring it up is because of little kids and steroids, rather than MLB and steroids. If you make examples out of superstars then the thought is younger athletes wont use them.
Its very sad. I got 10 things that came out of this debacle yesterday:
1.) McNamee is a liar and a drug dealer (we already new that)
2.) Pettite lied about his HGH use (this was shocking)
3.) McNamee's story about Clemens appears to be backed by Pettite and Knoblach (a little shocking)
4.) Pettite will be called in to testify about the conversation and you will have Pettite on one side and Clemens on the other (very interesting)
5.) They will have about 5 more of these hearings before someone is charged with perjury (waste of money)
6.) Clemens did HGH (suspected but now confirmed imo)
7.) Their was really no talk about anabolic steroids primarily hgh
8.) Barry Bonds will go down a much different route that Clemens
9.) congress has no plans on ensuring kids don't use steroids, they only care if Clemens used it (typical congress crap)
10.) Waxman looks like a pig who fell off a bus face first
