Sam Adams can't catch a Break

Sammy back in the news this week. Months back, Sam Adams said he didn't have relations with Beau Breedlove until he was 18.

Well, that may be a fib.

New phones reports show that Sam called Beau 33 times when he was 17, and the same phone report revealed that Sam made most of the calls to Beau a few weeks after they met. However the records don't show any calls Beau to Sam.

Mess...and here's where the J.R. and Sue Ellen part comes in (thanks to The Oregonian)

The outcome of the state Department of Justice investigation could come down to the word of Adams and Breedlove, both of whom acknowledge lying in the past about their relationship.

Breedlove, now 21, could become a problematic witness should Adams be charged. After saying he wanted to maintain his privacy, Breedlove gave a nationally televised interview, posed for a gay erotic magazine, signed autographs at an adult video store in Portland and served as a judge for a sexually explicit contest at a Portland doughnut shop.

Adams, 45, has tried to move past the controversy, working on high-profile deals such as Portland's Rose Quarter, the new Columbia River bridge and a proposed convention center hotel.

Meanwhile, the mayor's office has been distracted by the ongoing investigations by the state and the media.

The Oregonian and other news agencies flooded City Hall with records requests after Adams' admission Jan. 19. Officials have provided the newspaper access to hundreds of pages of spending records and a dozen archived boxes from Adams' years as a city commissioner.

The mayor's office also released a recording of an interview Willamette Week had with Adams four days before he admitted the truth about Breedlove. The recording shows Adams repeatedly lying and evading questions put to him by the newspaper.

Maybe Sam should just tell the truth...the finale doesn't look so good.
