    You are all incorrect.

    As time goes by, most experts will agree that it is Roger Clemens. It won't even be close.

    Was Roger Clemens born here?

    Also, was Clyde Drexler born here?

    Anyway, I saw Mary Lou Retton at the gymnastics her girls and my girls go... she's a nice lady but parks her HUMMER2 in the handicapped space... :(
