He must be using steriods. No 40-something should be as good as he is.

Absolutely. Look at him in his earlier days... in his late 20s he was slightly overweight... with chronic back problems.
Now these days, at 40+, he's a body builder... with this stringent workout regimen... and blah blah blah.
Yeah, so's Barry Bonds.

No he is not.Looking at the Rockets career numbers,he is around where he should be at this point in his career.That is why he considered one of the greatest of all time.There should be an award or something like the Cy Young award named in Rockets honor.The Roger Clemens Award.This guy is definitely a first ballot Hall of Famer and before he retires I'm sure there will be other accomplishments as well.50 years from now baseball fans everywhere will look back and compare him to the Sandy Koufax's of the world and some will remember him and tell their grandchildren that they saw him pitch.Which I have over at Shea.Juicing? No way!

I believe he might be, but he does have a strong work out session he does everyday. However, how can a 40 year old pitch with the same velocity? Sure Nolan Ryan did it, but that was before the scandals of steriods. I believe Roger might be using something to better inhance his performance.

I don't think so. Roger the mumbler and stumbler has never showed enough interest in anything or anyone but Roger. He would never have figured out all by himself that steroids could help him get bigger and stronger. If it comes to pass that he has or does, we will be treated to another one of his bumbling explanations. No matter what he says at the beginning of his "speech" will be contradicted by the end of the diatribe. He is the drama king of major league baseball and continues to play others for all they are worth. Look at his recent fiasco of guess whether or not I will play and for whom. He may have been a great pitcher, but as a person, he is a flop!!
Have to call them as I see them.

Ever heard of Nolan Ryan who was still bringing it at about 95 mph at 46 yrs old? No Roger is not juicing, he has just kept fit and has strong legs.

Clemens has class unlike your allegation and a few other answers here. He is also the best mlb pitcher of all time.

Yes I think he is taking some kind of supliment maybe not steroids? He is by far still one of the best pitchers ever.

Steroids? No.
HGH? Well..............................how else do you explain this out of a 43 year old? And how do you explain 50 HRs in the last 150 or so games by Giambi, huh...?
