   Rebecca,

   Law & Order will have an episode, but they’ll change the names.

   God, his son is dying. The sins of the father.

   Why doesn’t Roger tell him to do the right thing?

   Dear Fellow Bloggers,

   I am at work and cannot turn on a live feed. Can someone please give me a two sentence synopsis?

   Thanks so much.

   This has now gone from the ridiculous to the sublime and totally bizarre

    Maybe I am missing something but, I don’t know what good playing this tape does for Clemens.

    McNamee isn’t saying anything that will exonerate him. At least I haven’t heard anything. Perhaps I missed something.

    Surreal stuff, though.

    kd,

    circular conversation. Brian’s desperate and asking Roger, “What do you want me to do”. Roger refuses to answer. Just keeeps saying “I didn’t do this”.

    Basically Brian’s son is dying and he’s broke. It’s pretty heartbreaking.

12. Rebecca--Optimist Prime--Save the Three Musketeers! January 7th, 2008 at 5:38 pm

    Kd:

    Macnamee: My son is dying. What do you want me to do?
    Roger: I don’t know. Give me some time.

    Meanwhile, my mother picks an excellent time to ask me to turn the laundry around…

13. mel January 7th, 2008 at 5:38 pm

    Wow. You can’t make this $hit up.

14. kd January 7th, 2008 at 5:39 pm

    Thanks so much.

    IMO it is one of the funniest bleepin’ taped conversations I ever heard

16. SJ44 January 7th, 2008 at 5:39 pm

    Ah, they are playing it to avoid witness tampering charges.

    Makes more sense now.

    Also, Clemens can’t say what he wants done (aside from wanting the truth out) because he could be charged with witness tampering.

    He has to ride a very fine line here.

    However, say this, the guy is coming out swinging which, according to those ready to fry him, have been asking for since the Report was made public.

    Roger didn’t have to miss the funeral to be at the press conference. He could have changed the time/date of the press conference.
