Swear? Swear.

Since we're running a little lean on Ault coverage right now, I'm going to take a quick diversion into the realm of Roger Clemens and his interview on 60 Minutes. Since I don't watch 60 Minutes (or CBS - nope, not even for the NFL), I'm so happy that Fox Sports has a wrap-up of it:

NEW YORK (AP) - Roger Clemens said former trainer Brian McNamee injected him with the painkiller lidocaine and the vitamin B-12, according to the first excerpts released from the pitcher's interview with CBS's "60 Minutes."

McNamee said in the Mitchell report on doping in baseball that he personally injected Clemens with steroids in 1998 while with the Toronto Blue Jays, and with steroids and human growth hormone in 2000 and 2001 while with the New York Yankees.

[...]

Clemens told CBS that McNamee's accusation was "ridiculous" and said he "never" used banned substances.

"Swear?" CBS's Mike Wallace asked Clemens.

"Swear," Clemens responded.


The bigger question, of course, is did Clemens pinky swear, or was it a swear with his fingers crossed behind his back? I suppose the world may never know...
