HERE'S THE MAIN ISSUE WITH ROGER CLEMENS
It's not that he had sex with her when she was 15....

Or that he had sex with this woman while he was married...

Or that he tagged John Daly's wife...

It's this...
News reports have described Clemens as being in attendance as recently as two years ago, dancing around the party with an 8-foot-long boa constrictor around his neck.

FRIDAY SHOW STUFF
(Figured I should start putting up the stuff I plan on talking about)
-Shaun Alexander. No one else is looking at him. When teams with better track records personnel-wise (most of them) than the Bengals pass on a guy, does that tell you anything? You can say the same thing about Jason Shirley.
-Tales from the Kentucky Derby. I've never been, though I want to. Besides the race, I hear it's kinda like Mardi-Gras. What the craziest thing you've seen or done at the Derby?
-Roger Clemens has entered the OJ Simpson Club. Athletes more remembered for what they've done off the field (both good and bad) than what they've done on it.
-Bad customer service. Tried to buy a video camera at Circuit City yesterday. It didn't go well.
-Iron Man. Looks pretty cool. Might try to see it this weekend. But are there any superheroes left to make movies about?
-Why I'm influential. Check the front page of the local section today.
-Enjoy the vastly underrated Kimberly Williams...
