After listening to Roger Clemens' denial of having ever used steroids, I wondered whether he'd repeat that statement under oath in front of Contress. As it happens, he won't get the chance, nor will any other player. From USA Today:
There are no plans to summon Clemens or any other baseball player, Rep. Tom Davis (R-Va.) said, to the Jan. 15 hearing on steroids in front of the House Government Reform Committee.

"We don't want to turn this into a circus," Davis said in a telephone interview Wednesday. "We just want to know what Major League Baseball plans to do about their problems. We understand the collective bargaining agreement complicates matters, but we'd like to see if they agree with Sen. Mitchell's recommendations, and move on."

So this won't be the three-ring circus it was last time. At least that's good to hear.

Roger Clemens was prominently mentioned in the Mitchell Report, but the government went out of its way Thursday to make sure his name wasn't linked to another controversial document.
