But all of that was over a decade ago. I don't think anything he's doing now has any bearing on his time here, nor does his time here have any bearing on what he's doing now.
He was done when Duquette said he was "in the twilight of his career" then Clemens got pissed, ran to Canada and started cheating to spite everyone. His entire career since he left Boston has been a lie.
He doesn't like it here, he's turned down multiple opportunities to come back, including this year when the Sox were clear favorites to win it all. I just don't see how he still qualifies as being "from here."
