Finally, Some Good Roger Clemens News

Can we stop talking about Barry Zito for a minute? Let's talk about something lighter - like Roger Clemens. It's been a while since we had some good Roger Clemens news to report, but this new tidbit does not disappoint. While we're still not sure what he was injected with, it looks like Clemens might not quite be the family man he makes himself out to be. The New York Daily News is reporting the Clemens had a 10-year long affair with country singer Mindy McCready. Of course, Clemens was in full denial mode. His lawyer Rusty Hardin released a statement:
Mindy McCready is a longtime family friend of Roger Clemens and the Clemens family. At no time did Roger engage in any kind of inappropriate or improper relationship with her. It is unfortunate that the Daily News has chosen to report anonymous allegations that are completely unfounded, have no basis in fact, and have nothing to do with Roger's baseball career or the issue of steroid use in baseball.
But McCready did say, "I cannot refute anything in the story."

Apparently, "She was 15 when he noticed her at a Fort Myers, Fla., bar while out with his Red Sox teammates, according to the Daily News." 15? Look out, Miley Cyrus.

Roger, if your wife has any questions, I suggest you take some advice from Shaggy.

It has been difficult to be a Giants fan these last several years - losing records, injuries, and bad contracts. We may be critical - but we stand by our team through good times and bad. The Giants remain one of the most storied franchises in the history of baseball and have a crop of new stars ready to add new pages to the Giants history books. Lincecum, Cain, Sanchez, Wilson and Sandoval are giving us reasons to be excited. Times may not always be stellar, but the Giants always give us something to talk about.
