Adam, I agree you usually don’t think medication when you say “drugs.” However, when you’re trying to deny the use of steroids in front of the nation, I would certainly think you’d be specific. In his first denial he said that he never gave Brian any drugs to inject him with. Wouldn’t it have been much better for him to say, “Brian is mistaken, the only thing he injected me with was lidocane and b12?” In one instance you’re saying the whole thing never happened, in the other, you’re saying it was medication that is perfectly legal. To me, those two things are drastically different. Clemens’ behavior ever since this has come out has done nothing but make him look more guilty.

You’re an idiot. I’m not looking for reasons but its clear as day. When you’re confronted and asked “do you take drugs”? Your response is No even though you may be on medication. He also could be defending himself against Brian stating Clemens gave him drugs to take – the emphasis could be on “I did not provide Brian with xxxx”. Its not reading between lines – you just cant read something and know his intonation and intention.

Now that you mention it, there is some inconsistency with what he said in this video, and what he said in the 60 minutes interview.
