Baseball Legend Roger Clemens Uses 1 Word To Describe President Trump

Baseball Legend Roger Clemens Uses 1 Word To Describe President Trump originally appeared on The Spun.
President Trump recently had some remarks about the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran that really grabbed the attention for baseball legend Roger Clemens.
In a now-viral moment at the White House yesterday, President Trump remarked that he was extremely upset at the two countries for still fighting even after his military action last week. He dropped an F-bomb while decrying that the two nations "don't know what the F they're doing."
"We have two countries that have been fighting so long that they don't know what the (expletive) they're doing," Trump said.
Clemens reposted a clip of him saying that and had just one word to describe the president:
"Legend."
Clemens' fans in the comments agreed:
"When a Legend reposts a legends post of a Legend. You hit 3 squared territory. Now that's 3-D chess," one user replied.
"Legends recognize legends," wrote another.
"I voted for that F-Bomb," a third declared.
"This is as real as it gets.. I love this man more and more every day..."
"He made more sense of the situation than anyone with that statement."
Roger Clemens has long been a supporter of President Trump. He's been an active member of the Republican Party for decades and has donated his own money to supporting their political causes through the years.
Just a few months ago he visited Trump at the White House. The President is clearly very fond of him.
As a player, Clemens was a two-time World Series champion and an 11-time All-Star during a career spanning nearly a quarter-century. He was voted to the MLB All-Century Team and is a member of the Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame.
However, Cooperstown has never come calling for Clemens, likely due to him being implicated in the steroid scandals of the 2000s. He is the only eligible member of baseball's esteemed 300-win club that never got inducted.Baseball Legend Roger Clemens Uses 1 Word To Describe President Trump first appeared on The Spun on Jun 25, 2025

Naomi Osaka announces she is no longer working with coach Patrick Mouratoglou

WASHINGTON (AP) — Naomi Osaka and coach Patrick Mouratoglou are done working together after less than a year, the four-time Grand Slam champion announced Sunday on social media. 'Merci Patrick,' Osaka began her post, with a photo of her hitting a practice serve while he stands nearby. 'It was such a great experience learning from you. Wishing you nothing but the best. You are one of the coolest people I've ever met and I'm sure I'll see you around.' The news comes three days after Osaka lost her second match at the D.C. Open and just before she begins competing in Toronto. The U.S. Open, the year's last major tournament and an event Osaka won twice, begins in New York on Aug. 24. Osaka hired Mouratoglou — who was the longtime coach of Serena Williams — when she fired Wim Fissette shortly after her second-round exit at last year's U.S. Open. Osaka, a former No. 1, is currently ranked 51st and has a 21-11 record this season. She hasn't been past the third round at a Grand Slam tournament since winning the 2021 Australian Open. ___ AP tennis: The Associated Press

Dave Parker's son shares memories of his father during Baseball Hall of Fame speech

The Baseball Hall of Fame welcomes five new members on Sunday, July 27, with Ichiro Suzuki, CC Sabathia, Billy Wagner, Dave Parker and Dick Allen set to be inducted in Cooperstown, New York. Suzuki becomes the Hall of Fame's first Japanese player – assembling a 19-year MLB career after nine decorated professional seasons in Japan – and was just one vote shy of a unanimous election. Sabathia also got in on the first ballot after winning 261 games as one of the best starting pitchers of the new millennium. Wagner ranks eighth on the all-time saves list with 422, while Allen (1972) and Parker (1978) were MVP award winners. Baseball greats remember Dave Parker: 'More respect for Dave Parker than anybody' More: Here's one way the Cincinnati Reds are honoring Hall of Famer Dave Parker An enormous crowd showed for the festivities with Suzuki a fan favorite on both sides of the Pacific and Cooperstown a four-hour drive from Yankee Stadium, where Sabathia pitched 11 seasons. Dave Parker's son shares memories of his father Pirates' legend Dave Parker passed away less than a month away from his induction ceremony, making his son's speech hit that much harder as it happened. Dave Parker II even mentioned that he died while writing his Hall of Fame speech. Parker II finished his speech with a poem written by his father, noting that it was specifically his father's request that it be read during the acceptance speech. The poem was a good conclusion, with Parker posthumously praising himself for his "rocket arm" and willingness to "run any catcher over." The best moment of the poem though was the finale. After mentioning that Cooperstown would be his last stop, Parker wrote, "I didn't lie in my documentary, I told you I wouldn't show [to my acceptance speech]." Considering Parker's recent death, this line hit infinitely harder. This article originally appeared on USA TODAY: Baseball Hall of Fame induction 2025: Dave Parker's son gives speech
