ONE BRAVE MAN; How Roger Clemens Risked Everything to Prove He Did Not Take Anabolic Steroids (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

: In 2015, nearly three years after baseball legend Roger Clemens was exonerated by a federal jury of perjury, where the underlying issue was whether he had taken anabolic steroids, dramatic new evidence, in the form of testimony by the most famous sports doctor in the United States, James R. Andrews, was uncovered to further strengthen Clemens' contention that he had never taken steroids. That testimony would have been revealed at trial in the defamation suit strength and conditioning coach Brian McNamee had filed against Clemens. But much to the disappointment of Clemens, however, and his attorney Chip Babcock, the case was settled after the aggressive urging to reach an agreement by U.S. Magistrate Judge Cheryl Pollack in Brooklyn, New York. Although the father of molecular endocrinology, Dr. Bert W. O'Malley, was not going to testify, he had concluded seven years earlier that Roger Clemens did not take anabolic steroids by analyzing all his medical records, including blood tests, from 1995 through 2008. O'Malley said that types of symptoms associated with anabolic steroids use included elevated blood pressure, acne, increased LDL Cholesterol and decreased HDL Cholesterol. In the key paragraph of O'Malley's findings, he wrote, "I have not found any of the above listed positive indications of steroid abuse during this period for Mr. Clemens. The record is remarkably uniform and devoid of suspicious indicators." This 10- year investigation included extraordinary access to Clemens' legendary lawyer, Rusty Hardin.
