ARE YOU LYING...ROGER THAT!



It is great watching Roger Clemens squirm as he is being grilled during the congressional witch-hunt about steriod use in baseball.

Right now Clemens has two strikes against him. Both Andy Pettite and Chuck Knoblauch, both former Yankees, have confirmed the story of Brian McNamee.

Roger Clemens struggled to find the right words under questioning during a congressional hearing Wednesday and denied new accounts of drug use made against him by former teammate and close friend Andy Pettitte.

Using words like “misremembered” and mispronouncing the last name of his chief accuser, Brian McNamee, Clemens rambled and stumbled during his early remarks on Capitol Hill.

Clemens’ reputation and legacy were on the line, and there was the possibility that criminal charges could follow after the seven-time Cy Young winner testified.
