Blue Dress Redux
I'm not quite sure what to make of the newest chapters in the Roger Clemens saga. This thing has gotten so crazy I'm to the point I'm beginning to empathize with those nuts that follow the wild escapades of Britney Spears.
Am I supposed to believe that a man innocently kept bio-waste? Was he planning on blackmailing Clemens? Or was he, as he says, keeping it just in case. Just in case what? In either case it diminishes the argument that McNamee was just a fool who simply told the truth when caught in a legal trap.
This reminds me of the question why Monica Lewinsky kept that stained dress. The scene is eerily reminiscent of that period while we waited for test results that would unmask the perjurer. Clemens knows whether McNamee has the goods. What must be going through his mind now if—and I stress if—he is guilty?
For McNamee is either one of the most insane men in history, or history itself is insane. He is now proclaiming that he not only injected Clemens with PEDs, he injected Clemens' wife with HGH. This is not unbelievable, mind you. The Fountain of Youth from a syringe is not limited to males, and it is not inconceivable that if her husband were abusing she would get into the act, anymore than it is inconceivable that the most powerful man would risk his reputation and his country's security pleasuring himself on an intern in his "employ".
Wonder if Debbie Clemens looks good in blue…
Will the DNA match?
Will Clemens' wife be called to testify?
What else is in McNamee's cellar?
Tune in next week.

Russell,
I feel like a political blogger must have felt during the Lewinsky debacle. This thing just gets weirder by the moment.

I agree about the wierdness. Especially the way the alleged evidence was stored...a crushed beer can. A professional athlete and a personal trainer....the equation just doesn't add up. This isn't a Freshman in high school drinking a beer and his buddy pulling out a pack of Zig-Zags and a bag. This is just plain wierd.

Hey, Michael!
This whole Clemens mess is playing out like some crazy soap opera; and, as we all know "soap operas" never end. I think this is also going to be the case with Clemens...at this point no matter what the result is [after all the Hearings, Lawsuits, TV Appearances, etc. are finished] there will always be doubt regarding Clemens and his use of PED's !!!
I'm going to withhold further judgment until after watching the Hearings [Wed Feb.13th]...I want to hear more of what Clemens has to say [I didn't believe him on his "60 Minutes" interview]; and, also, hear for the first time what McNamee, Pettitte, and Radomski will say...
And, just like a soap opera, an odd character comes from out of nowhere - which seems to be the case regarding Chuck Knoblauch. I don't know what he is going to add to all this drama, but sometimes these type of characters provide a lot of unexpected excitement to the show, and add something that no one saw coming!...
Anyway, all I can think right now is that someone is lying! But, like I always felt right from the start, I think the more Roger Clemens talks, the deeper the hole he is digging for himself!...
Only time will tell !!!
