SILENCE COMES judgment; Clemens is Roger through his : Andy Pettitte . communicates through statements. No one has heard a word from Paul Lo Duca or Eric Gagne. The innocent usually protest the loudest, but there's ' barely been a peep out of the mouths of those named in George Mitchell's landmark report on steroids in baseball. Could be they're busy find- ing just the right gifts the week before Christmas. Or maybe they're all just wait- ing to spill their guts to Bud . Selig. So far, though, their collective silence is both deafening and incriminating. No howls of protest? No claims they were framed. Yes, a few copped to using HGH, but insisted it was only to recover from injuries, which makes you wonder why doctors everywhere don't prescribe it. Appar-entl- y no one ever used HGH to grow muscles to hit more home runs or throw in the mid-90- s. The talking head apologists on TV mostly former have to be beside players themselves. When the report came out, they were quick to claim the evidence was weak, based on only a few sources, and did a terrible disservice to baseball players everywhere. Now they're as quiet as the players Mitchell named. The only outrage comes from Clemens' paid mouthpieces, not the Rocket himself. If the cover boy in the Mitchell report really didn't use steroids and the evidence put forward makes that hard to believe he's not helping his cause by clamming up when there's some real explaining to be done. On Tuesday, Clemens' agent issued the pitcher's second statement since being featured in the Mitchell re-- . port, and you had to wonder why he bothered. The statement claimed he had never . taken steroids and urged people not to rush to judg-meuntil he answers questions at the appropriate time and in the appropriate way- Well, the appropriate time is now. And the appropri- ate way is to stand before microphones and cameras and tell us honestly why your longtime personal trainer would risk federal charges by making up such a detailed story about your widespread use of steroids. Don't wait until Congress, sends you a subpoena to testify before two House panels next month. By then it will be far too late to win back any public support that has vanished while you've been in . hiding the last few days. High school coaches in Texas certainly want to hear his side. Clemens was supposed to attend their annual meeting next month to speak about "what he did on a daily basis that kept him in shape," but that was before they heard what he might have really done to keep in shape. ' Maybe Clemens could just can the speech and bring along some syringes and vials of Winstrol and for Pettitte, meanwhile, at v least admitted he used hu- man growth hormone. But he would have been a lot more credible had he faced reporters to answer ques- - l tions about how long he usd it, whom he bought it fronv; and whether or not his tearft-matwere also using it. Instead, Pettitte waited until most of the media had, gone home for the weekend before issuing a statement ; " through his agent that he was sorry "if what I did was an error in judgment on m I part." Pettitte's claim was that ; he used HGH only two days while on the disabled list, I and only to heal quicker.
