Pitcher Names Clemens as Steroid Users
Former Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Jason Grimsley is said to have named Houston Astros pitcher Roger Clemens in a sworn affidavat concerning steroid use in Major League Baseball. Grimsley supposedly claimed that Clemens, along with Andy Pettite "used athletic performance enchancing drugs". There are some who question the validity of the affidavat in that some people close to Grimsley say that he has stated that he did not make all the statements that federal agents claim he made. At least three other players beyond Clemens and Pettitte were supposedly named by Grimsley. To read the whole story here is a link.

1. Grimsley has complained
to friends that federal agents credited him with statements and disclosures he didn't make, and it's doubtful that he'll ever publicly name names.

I don't think this will come to much.

2. little will be made of this...
if the name Bonds is not attached to the story, the public or press by large could give a crap.
