| 23rd December, 2007 - 12:08 pm | MLB.com - Roger Clemens spoke for the first time about his alleged steroid use when he released a video statement on Sunday, denying all allegations.
The video, shown on his personal web site, rogerclemensonline.com, shows Clemens giving the following one-minute, 48 second statement:
"Over the last 15 days, it's been extremely difficult, for my family, my children, my extended family," Clemens said. "I'm holding up better than they are. I'm almost numb to some of these suggestions that I used steroids. It's amazing to me that I'm going to lengths that I'm going to have to defend myself.
"I faced this last year when the LA Times reported that I used steroids. I said it was not true then. Now, the whole world knows it's not true now that that's come out.
"It's surfaced again later now with this Mitchell Report. Let me be clear: The answer is no, I did not use steroids, human growth hormone, and I've never done so. I did not provide Brian McNamee with any drugs to inject into my body. Brian McNamee did not inject steroids or human growth hormone into my body, either when I played in Toronto for the Blue Jays, or the New York Yankees. This Report is simply not true." [READ] |
