It just keeps getting worse for Roger Clemens. The New York Daily News published this little tidbit on the infamous Jose Canseco Party that Clemens denied attending:

“The Daily News has learned that in the days since the Feb. 13 public hearing on steroids in baseball, another major leaguer has informed congressional investigators that Clemens often joked in the clubhouse about a memorable account of the party — a scene in which Debbie Clemens and Canseco’s ex-wife Jessica compared the results of their surgical breast enhancements.”

Ouch. First Clemens exposed his wife as a juicer, then he unwittingly place her “enhancements” into the public discussion. Not good.

The Rocket showed up at the Astros camp to watch his son Koby work out. He waved off questions about his raging steroid/HGH controversy.

“I think you ought to be asking baseball questions,” Clemens said. “I think it’s time to move on and get on with baseball.”

Yeah, well, good luck with that. IRS special agents are on the case now and odds are, this is NOT going to end well for Clemens.

MYSTERIES OF THE UNIVERSE

Questions to ponder while waiting for Cam Janssen to start his first riot for his hometown Blues:

With the remaining talent the Blues put on the ice for every game, how do they avoid scoring goals?

Will T.J. Oshie fix this next season? Can Patrick Berglund help?

Shouldn’t there be a law preventing Sam Zell from selling naming writes to Wrigley Field?

NEEDLESSLY GRAPHIC ANECDOTE OF WEEK

Interim Indiana coach Dan Dakich once held Michael Jordan to 13 points while playing for Hoosiers coach Bob Knight. He told Chicago’s WSCR radio how that assignment came down:

“I didn’t know until 3½ hours before the game. Coach came in and he told me, and he got a really sick look on his face when he told me. He was like, ‘Oh, my God, I can’t believe I’m going to say this, but Dakich, you’ve got Jordan.’

“And I don’t blame him. It should have been like, ‘Isiah, you’ve got Jordan.’ But it was me. I had had the flu all week. Long story short, when he told me that, I went back to my hotel room and threw up. I just walked in. Truly, I looked at my body when I walked in the hotel room. There was a mirror right there, and I looked at myself. I started thinking about Michael Jordan, and I knew it was going to be on Ch. 2 up in Chicago and all my friends, my relatives were going to see it. Honest to God, I just threw up right there all over the carpet.”

QUIPS ‘R US

Here is what some of America’s leading sports pundits have been writing:

Mark Kriegel, FoxSports.com: “I’d love to tell you that the heavyweight unification bout between Wladimir Klitschko and Sultan Ibragimov was an epic battle. Unfortunately, I’ve seen more aggressiveness from yoga moms in Santa Monica. And you wonder why people are paying money to watch Kimbo Slice?”

Dan Daly. Washington Times: “Go ahead and laugh. A decade from now, the only unpleasant memory Hoosier fans will have of Knight will be those checked sport coats he used to wear.”

Scott Ostler, San Francisco Chronicle: “Sure, the Mitchell Report and the Roger Clemens debacle have been embarrassing to major-league baseball. But in pain there is gain. From now on, ballplayers will be a lot more careful about how they get their HGH.”

Jay Mariotti, Chicago Sun-Times, on the greatness of Tiger Woods: “Anything is possible this year because he has mind-whipped every competitor. We used to see (Michael) Jordan mentally abuse foes, but Woods has crushed the collective psyche of the entire field seemingly to the point of no return. His so-called rival in the Accenture final, Stewart Cink, sounded like an awed schoolboy on the eve of the match . . . So when Woods routed him, what else was Cink left to do but wonder if he’s human?”

Greg Cote, Miami Herald: “A new edict by Marlins manager Fredi Gonzalez: No boom boxes or loud music in the clubhouse. It is to avoid conflict ‘where one guy wants to listen to 50 Cent and the other wants Sinatra,’ he said. Yeah, nothing pumps you up for a game like a little Strangers in the Night.”
