The Roger Clemens Show has one plot twist after another.
Just this week we had The Rocket’s 5-hour congressional hearing; gauze-wielding, syringe-saving Brian McNamee’s testimony; and McNamee’s claim that Debbie Clemens had an intimate encounter with an HGH injection. And now we have Penn professors joining the all-star cast.
