The last time we were together I was wishing you a good holiday so you know it’s been some time. I spent most of it at the Ritacco Center in Toms River where the 24th annual WOBM Christmas Classic concluded with championships for the Toms River North Boys and Colts Neck Girls.
My special thanks to an incredibly hard-working staff which makes those very long 14-hour days not only bearable but a lot of fun at times. We’ll begin working this month on our 25th anniversary tournament, which will truly be something special.
If Roger Clemens is going down he’s not going easy. The much-talked-about “60 Minutes” interview aired Sunday night in which Clemens reiterated his defense of never taking any performance-enhancing substances, which he has been accused of by his former personal trainer Brian McNamee. The interview conducted by Mike Wallace did not reveal anything not brought up before but Clemens admitted shock that his former teammate and close friend Andy Pettitte had used human growth hormones on a pair of occasions.
Just before the interview aired Clemens filed a defamation suit against McNamee in a Texas State Court and is expected to talk about that later today at a news conference in Houston.
There was a time when visiting a New Jersey Motor Vehicle Agency was an experience which you would put off until the last possible moment because it was often time-consuming and frustrating. Last week I strolled into the Toms River office in need of renewing my driver’s license and was greeted by a smiling receptionist and helpful people. I was in and out in just over 15 minutes…what a pleasure.
Some Rutgers football fans are making a bit too much out of this weekend’s bowl-game victory over Ball State. Sure it’s a nice way to end the season but the Scarlet Knights lost five games and much more was expected then a trip to the International Bowl. Plus it looks like their best player, running back Ray Rice is headed to the NFL. This is a far cry from last year when Rutgers was the talk of college football.

If Roger Clemmens was not using steriods he would have already taken a lie detector test (with his attorney) and presented this to the public. Also, does no one see a problem with 'trainers' INJECTING anything into players. Since when are they physicians? What rational human being would let someone not qualified inject an unknown substance (whether it was a pain killer or B12) into them? Why not go to a doctor for this treatment if necessary. Perhaps the answer is that a doctor would not have injected what was being used, namely STEROIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
