My Pinstripes Alpha: McNamee Turning Up the Heat

With temperatures dropping back to freezing, it's only appropriate that Brian McNamee is turning up the heat on Roger Clemens. McNamee is said to be helping congressional investigators as they prepare for February hearings on performance enhancing drugs.

McNamee had previously only answered questions from federal authorities as well as the Mitchell investigators. He did not volunteer information. Whether or not it's because of Roger Clemens claims that McNamee lied, the personal trainer is starting to volunteer information to authorities, going into much deeper detail than before.

McNamee's attorney Earl Ward got right to the point...

"Brian knows a lot about Roger's moral character and knows a lot about his extracurricular activities. ... There's a lot that he could say to damage Roger's reputation, but we plan on taking the high road. ... If some of this stuff were to come out, Roger Clemens would look very, very, very bad."

Congressional investigators are asking more probing questions as well as they try to determine the validity of both McNamee's and Clemens' claims.

Clemens' attorney Rusty Hardin is also backing away from his earlier statement that Clemens would definitely testify under oath before Congress.
