Do you care about who else Roger Clemens may or may not have slept with during the course of his marriage? Of course you'll say you don't, but I'm guessing the NY Daily News circulation numbers for the last couple of days proves you wrong. I'm also guessing you'll read on - smut sells baby.
In addition to the handy guide to the Clemens fiasco that Champ posted last night, I'll continue with our lowest common denominator blogging (honestly, what do you expect at this site - the New Yorker we're not) and bring you today's update on women Roger allegedly defiled. The Daily News is reporting Clemens had "beauties" in California, Boston, and Manhattan. The story also contains quotes from everyone's favorite white trash quote machine - Mindy McCready's mom Gayle Inge. While yesterday I was perturbed by the fact that these people will give interviews to any press outlet that calls covering any topic of their personal lives, I've quickly realized they simple don't care - if Jerry Springer is still doing his show, book Gayle and Mindy tomorrow.
Now Roger is hardly the first pro athlete to cheat on his wife (allegedly) but I have to say, his fall from grace the last 6 months has been absolutely Spitzer-esque. Think about it, 10 short months ago, Suzyn Waldman had an aneurysm and orgasm at the same time announcing his return and now Barry Bonds may have higher favorability ratings. Of course, none of this would be happening if the dumb ass would have just pulled a Mark McGuire and faded into obscurity instead of calling everyone a liar and trying to sue the world to prove his innocence. It all begs some important questions:
* Who would have given Roger better legal advice - Rusty Hardin or Rusty, Kramer's horse with gas problems on Seinfeld?
* Hardin HAD to have known suing McNamee for defamation was a suicide mission - if it was Clemens who insisted they move forward, why did he keep Clemens as a client? I'm guessing the large legal fees he's racking up have something to do with it.
* Is Debbie Clemens on the juice? If so, that's some roid rage Roger isn't going to want to deal with.
* Six months from now, does Clemens go to a karaoke bar, and if so, is he singing Mindy McCready songs?
* How long do we have to wait until we find out that Clemens met "Kristen" right before she shot the Girls Gone Wild video in Florida?
