Clemens, Pettite, Others Called to Congress

Congress' House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform have called Roger Clemens, Andy Pettite, Brian McNamee, Chuck Knoblauch and Kirk Radomski to testify before them on January 16th according to the AP.

"Lawyers for Clemens and McNamee said they intended to accept the invitations. The others, who have all been linked to McNamee, could not be immediately contacted after the announcement by the committee."

Now if these hearings turn into a Clemens show, this won't accomplish a damn thing. Hopefully it's more open and looking for some solutions to the steroid issue.

Re: Clemens, Pettite, Others Called to Congress

Are the just being requested to go, or is this a subpoena. Can they tell them no?

At this point they are just being invited but will be subpoenaed should it become a necessity.

Right, Congress "invites" people to Congress. But if Congress wants someone to talk with them, they will bring them in.
