Congressional committee to investigate Clemens disagreement

The Congressional committee was not convinced after the five hour hearing on Feb 13 over the use of performance enhancement drugs by baseball player Roger Clemens who has been constantly denying the use of the drugs while he was playing the game in 1999, 2000 and 2001 seasons.

The committee called Clemens “pinstriped perjurer” and ordered a Congressional investigation in the case. The House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform reported that seven of his testimonies were contradictory and the committee is unable to reach to a judgment in his case.
