I’ll admit it.  I’m fascinated with the whole Roger Clemens Goes to Congress fiasco.  So fascinated that there’s another SportingNews.com column from a certain Internet hack on the topic.

This one takes a look at whether either of these guys could be convicted of perjury in the aftermath of Wednesday’s hearing.

You can read it right here.

And while some readers continue to be confused by the fact that Congress is even pursuing this thing, keep in mind that it’s the natural consequence of an effort by Congress starting three years ago to remove illegal performance enhancing drugs from pro sports, in order to ensure that young athletes don’t use the stuff.  The Mitchell report was a result of those efforts, and the decision of Roger Clemens’ lawyer to publicly bad-mouth that Mitchell report prompted Congress to explore the report’s accuracy.  

Explore it Congress has, and now Roger Clemens has an irreparably tarnished legacy, which will be stained even further if he is indicted for perjury.
