Aren't you glad you knew that? Is your day not more enlightened than before? In a story found by Steroid Nation in the New York Times, trainer Brian McNamee goes into totally unnecessary detail about the aftereffects of injecting Clemens with steroids.
Something showed up on his bottom, and as you can imagine, it wasn't pretty:
Brian McNamee told federal authorities last summer that Roger Clemens developed an abscess on his buttocks about the same time that McNamee said he was giving him steroid injections during the 1998 season, according to a lawyer with knowledge of details of the case.
As disgusting as that is, that doesn't really add any traction to McNamee's allegations if he has no proof of the abscess. So this really isn't much of a bombshell. Then you might be asking, "Why did you even mention it?" Because when you have a chance to burn into someone's memory a mental picture of an abscess on Roger Clemens's ass, you pretty much do it.
