Actual BBTN quotes:
"You know what? He continues to get better with age."
"Keep in mind that the New York Yankees have to score runs for Roger in order for him to be effective for them."
(Uhh WOW plus you guys were just talking for several minutes about the miraculous sustained effectiveness of someone old enough to play in an old-timer game. The New York Yankees scored one run.)
THE STORY IS NOT THE ANGELS WINNING.

There is a stark difference in Clemens coverage/analysis when he does truly well (or merely satisfactory) and when he doesn't do so well. It's funny.
When he does well: Meticulous analysis marveling at a pitcher who continues to get better with age. How does he do it? Let's all discuss it for a few minutes. Look at Clemens hit his spots. Look at Clemens adjust to losing some of his velocity. Look at Clemens gut it out after getting into a jam which might've had to do with the phase of the moon or some kind of temporary talent surge on the part of a couple hitters. Look at Clemens bend down to pick up a tapper thrown miraculously in on the handle of the bat.
When he doesn't do well: Here's how the Yankees scored their runs. Ohandhereshowtheotherteamscoredclemensthrewfiverunsgivingupsevenhitsblahblahkthnxbye.

Roger Clemens carried on a decade-long affair with country star Mindy McCready, a romance that began when McCready was a 15-year-old aspiring singer performing in a karaoke bar and Clemens was a 28-year-old Red Sox ace and married father of two, several sources have told the Daily News.

clemens was 28 in '91, so the team would have included:
Tony Pena Carlos Quintana Jody Reed Wade Boggs Luis Rivera Mike Greenwell Ellis Burks Tom Brunansky Jack Clark Mo Vaughn Steve Lyons Phil Plantier Mike Brumley John Marzano Mike Marshall Tim Naehring Kevin Romine Scott Cooper Bob Zupcic Wayne Housie Eric Wedge Mike Gardiner Tom Bolton Matt Young Kevin Morton Danny Darwin Jeff Reardon Tony Fossas Dennis Lamp Jeff Gray Greg Harris Joe Hesketh Dana Kiecker Dan Petry Daryl Irvine Jeff Plympton John Dopson Steve Lyons Josias Manzanillo

i was just thinking - that early article makes sure to point out that they did not have sex when they first met. but doesn't rule out them messing around - which is still illegal with a minor. the charge would be molestation, i think. imagine clemens going to jail for child molestation!?

Source: Clemens flew women on jet Posted: Wednesday April 30, 2008 05:26AM ET
Roger Clemens hung out with several attractive women in his baseball career, including beauties in California and Boston and a former Manhattan bartender named Angela Moyer. Clemens flew the women around the country on his private jet and bought expensive jewelry for at least one of them, a source told the Daily News Tuesday. Moyer acknowledged she knew Clemens, but has declined to discuss the relationship.

The News reported that the two met in a Florida karaoke bar
Roger Clemens, what's on your karaoke songlist?
Laughing at loud at this quote from McCready:
"I have no doubt that Roger has excellent legal representation and he will emerge from this a strong person and a revered athlete," she said. "I wish him and his family the best."
So awesome and backhanded. If you can't say anything nice, compliment their legal representation.
