I’m not a big fan of Congress getting involved in this whole steroids thing — it seems they’re on a witch hunt for the most popular names — but it’s happened, and there isn’t much that can be done about it now. Except, of course, ask the Feds to get involved to see if Roger’s a perjure.

Roger Clemens’ appearance before Congress not only may have failed to clear his name, it might also have led to more trouble.

The New York Times reported on Monday that the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform has drafted a letter recommending that the Justice Department launch a criminal investigation into whether Clemens committed perjury during his testimony on Feb. 13.

Citing three lawyers familiar with the matter, the newspaper said that Clemens’ accuser, Brian McNamee, was not included in the letter, prompting speculation that the committee has concluded that the trainer’s testimony was truthful.

The last time we saw the Feds get involved, Vick ended up with two years in jail. Of course, Vick’s black, so Roger at least has some hope.
