What Other Shenanigans Was Roger Clemens Up to in the 1990's?


This morning's revelation of Roger Clemens's alleged affair with an underage Mindy McCready certainly got the week off to an entertaining start. Beyond Clemens's alleged infidelity, the fact that the couple is rumored to have spent time partying with Monica Lewinsky and Michael Jordan, two of the biggest pop cultural icons of the 1990's, is pretty interesting as well. They weren't just hanging out nearby, either.
McCready, according to a source, even bummed a cigar off His Airness to give to Clemens.
At least she didn't bum it from Lewinsky. God knows that wouldn't have been sanitary.

All of these bombshells are dropping because of Clemens's defamation suit against Brian McNamee and, as is part of any defense, the trainer and his lawyers are finding anything they can to counter arguments that Clemens possesses the pristine character he claims. We've done a little digging* and found out some other things Clemens probably doesn't want coming out about his activities in the 90's.

  • The guy whose voice you actually hear on that Milli Vanilli album? Clemens.
  • Before meeting McCready, Clemens had a long affair with Lorena Bobbitt and the fallout from that is the real reason why he only made 23 starts in 1995. Don't worry, Mindy, surgeons can do amazing things these days.
  • He really, really wanted to zigazig ha Courtney Love.
  • Was the first choice to play Steve Sanders on 90210 but producers thought he was too young so went with Ian Ziering instead.
  • Hired Tonya Harding to kneecap Nancy Kerrigan.
  • Introduced M.C. Hammer to parachute pants, owns several pairs of them himself. Also invented slap bracelets.
  • The best BLT of Clemens's life was made from Babe.
  • Spent most of 1998 standing on the bows of boats screaming "I'm the King of the World!"
  • Rolled in his 5.0 with his ragtop down so his hair could blow.
  • Voted for Ross Perot. Twice.
  • Voted for Jesse Ventura.
  • Was first attracted to McNamee because he reminded him of a guy from Color Me Badd who he used to swap overalls with while serenading Tori Spelling.
