Clemens Catastrophe Continues

On January 4, the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee invited Roger Clemens, Chuck Knoblauch, and Andy Pettite. They also summoned Major League Baseball Players Association President Donald Fehr, former trainer Brian McNamee, George Mitchell, former clubhouse attendant Kirk Radomski, and Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig. On January 10, the committee postponed their hearing.

On Sunday, Sixty Minutes interviewed Clemens. Clemens discussed his career. He eviscerated McNamee. He ridiculed the allegations. Clemens is angry. His anger is justified. Clemens is innocent. McNamee is a desperate, insolent, pathetic loser. McNamee does not deserve attention. Certainly, he does not warrant trust.
