It is such a boring case.

The Sandusky case is intense..switching from that to Clemens is like 60mph to 0. Pettite didn't recall the conversations with Clemens too well and that was like the core of the case. Not to mention, Clemens' lawyer has restricted him from testifying on behalf of himself.

Everyone hates Barry, Clemens has always been more of an indifferent character in the public eye..race isn't an issue here though. Barry just an a$$hole :manny:.

First of all, his case already happened. This is just the retrial.

Jerry Sandusky's case going on at the same time is gonna overshadow everything, let alone a retrial of a case that already took place.

Quoting this because this will be ignored.

This was "top" news in the sports world leading up to the first trial that started a year ago, but on the second day there was a mistrial because the prosecutors showed the jury evidence they weren't supposed to show.

Media kinda blew their load already and with the Sandusky shyt starting, that's gonna take over the sports/law news.

ESPN on the day of the mistrial

http://web.archive.org/web/20110714210455/http://espn.go.com/

It's one of the five selected for top stories and the first under headlines.

You look at the days leading up to the trial you'll see headlines talking about jury selection

Same reason the suspicions of Clemens didn't come out until after he was done playing and why his a$$hole behavior was overlooked or spun.
