When it rains, it pours and for Roger Clemens the forecast seems to be a storm a day. It's not a high pressure system causing the nasty weather but the New York Daily News. The paper seems to dig up information about a new woman or two every day, heaping more and more humiliation on the Rocket. Who's the contestant in today's episode of Roger and Me?
Why, it's Paulette Dean Daly, ex-wife of John Daly and the recipient of financial support from Clemens according to the paper. She admitted to a friendship with the pitcher although she had no comment beyond that. Imagine how much less we'd know about Roger Clemens today if that simple little phrase, no comment, just passed his lips.
The couple is said to have met via Daly's job with the Bob Hope Classic golf tournament. She organizes parties for the event, parties that have seen Clemens as an avid participant.
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.That tightening feeling around his throat isn't a new feeling, at least.
It's not just the News that's pursuing leads in this story. Up in his former Boston stomping grounds, the Boston Herald tracked down Barbara Leslie, a former waitress, who spun her own tale about the Rocket.
He made a clumsy advance at her, which she turned down, and called him a poor tipper. And, like Daly, Clemens isn't her only brush with celebrity. Leslie is married to Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake who might want to challenge the Rocket to a cage match and shave his head.
Clearly it doesn't matter if Clemens had sex with one woman, five woman or a hundred women outside his marriage. It doesn't even matter if he's ever cheated. He wouldn't be the first athlete to do it, certainly. At some point, though, you have to wonder how much Clemens wants to go through and put his family through so that he can pursue what looks like a dog of a defamation case against Brian McNamee.

Clemens personifies the SUPEREGO. He thinks he can do what he wants, when he wants, how he wants, who he wants, without any regard as to the consequences. Clemens put the "mor" in "moron."

Roger was one busy boy when his team hit the road for a game or when he was playing a golf outing. I bet his lovely wife is just tickled with him. He will lie about this just liked he lied to congress. I can't wait to see who they say he nailed next. Maybe its Hillary.

What is this supposed to mean? Of course it matters. This is saying -- it doesn't matter if he's innocent or guilty, as long as he's pursuing a suit we don't approve of we get to torment him.

I do agree with some of you who have mentioned that he is not the first to have indiscretions with other women. The only place I disagree is with having a 15 year old in your hotel room even if it was platonic. It's even creepier when you go on to have a sexual relationship with her. But Clemens is innvolved in a defamation case and the other side would be crazy not to get this stuff out there in the press...and the way the comments from these women are being worded...it's seems to be something to this. Clemens needs to rethink this...I'm not sure how much his wife was aware of his goings on, or if she did know-did she know the breath of indiscretions. No woman wants to be publicly humilated even if he husband is a SOB. His kids will get the brunt of this humiliation also. Clemens may not want to appear to bend, but he'd better bend before he breaks up his family.

John Daly settled with Clemens over this issue for 12 cases of Bud Light.

IF he was "man" enough, he SHOULD clarify this huge mess ASAP! I believe it! He was a jerk with the Yankees & he's just an idiot fool now. How his wife can ignore all this is beyond me. I feel for the kids. What do they think of their Dad. He can galavant around with no thoughts of his FAMILY? What an egotistical slob. I hope he NEVER gets in the HOF. If he does, put Rose & Shoeless Joe in!

It's a pretty well-known fact that Roger also liked boys. Without getting too vulgar, he liked to get it in the rear if you know what I mean.

At this point, I am glad it was Daly's ex and not John. However, something like that will probably be tomorrows headline.
Pathetic!!!!!!!!!!!!

Roger Clemens reminds me of John Wayne Bobbitt, remember him? The guy got his member severed and went onto become a #1 porn actor. Roger can earn a Cy - young award for this. Use pine tar and you have women like no other man on this planet. Call Ron Jeremy. This guy is number one. What's next? Did Roger Clemens ever hire an escort? These women are hot, throw a knuckle ball on them, Roger. You exemplify the male community.
