Clemens, considered a shoo-in for the Baseball Hall of Fame someday, was prominently featured in the report on performance-enhancing drugs that former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell released Thursday. "Roger Clemens adamantly, vehemently, and whatever other adjectives can be used, denies that he has ever used steroids or ... improper substances," Clemens' attorney, Rusty Hardin, said Thursday.
President Bush said Friday that baseball players and owners must take seriously the Mitchell Report on steroid use, but cautioned against jumping to conclusions about the individuals named. “My hope is that this report is a part of putting the steroid era of baseball behind us,” he said, surrounded by Cabinet members in the Rose Garden.

Tight security greeted high school students Wednesday as police searched for the gunmen who wounded six young people at a school bus stop, an attack that officials believe stemmed from a fight about a girl.
The six were wounded Tuesday shortly after a group of Mojave High School students got off a school bus in a working-class neighborhood in northeastern Las Vegas.
Bobby Petrino couldn’t even wait until this miserable season is over before abandoning the sinking ship Atlanta Falcons. But if his timing is less than ideal, it’s probably fitting. Atlanta began the season by losing its star quarterback, Michael Vick, has lurched into week 14 with a 3-10 record, is playing to thousands of empty seats and is headed nowhere. Oh, I almost forgot: the city is running out of water, too.

Finish this sentence: I was most disappointed when... describe in detail a time when you were most disappointed. What happened? What caused the events?
I was disappointed when the referees costed us a football game against Central. The reason this was so dissapointing is that we had worked so hard all week in practice and when it came down to the game the took the chance of us winning in the beginning of the game. They told us that we had no chance to win simply because we are considered a white school and there a black school. And when we asked the refs if we could have a fair chance at winning the game he said NO. So that is the most dissapointing moment i can remember rite now.
