The saga that just won’t die… thankfully

Am I the only one who doesn’t know who Mindy McCready is? Or at least, three days ago I didn’t.
Apparently, she confirmed that she’s had an affair with Roger Clemens. And oh yeah, she’s known his since she was 15, but the affair started later.
McCready - or, given her affair with Clemens, should it be McKready? - has had some run ins with the law. Just check out here Wikipedia page … that’s mostly fact based, isn’t it? So she’s had a troubled life.
But what does this have to do with Roger Clemens? Frankly, I have no idea. The ESPN legal talking heads say the McNamee team introduced this to show him as a less-than-stellar character; someone who would, I don’t know, lie about taking HGH. Even though McCready’s testimony will probably be inadmissible. I think.
(And yes, that is Dean Cain in that last link, photo No. 7)
I don’t know where this go will next. All I know, Clemens made a mistake by pursuing this defamation trial. Even if he was innocent. If he thought McNamee was such a scumbag, he’d know that they’d trot all all type of lies to defame him.
But it looks like he did have something to hide. And that makes the lawsuit an even worse idea.
