According to this report on ESPN.com Brian McNamee, the man who told investigators for the Mitchell report that he injected steroids into Roger Clemens, has indicated he will sue Clemens if Clemens accuses McNamee of lying. Clemens was interviewed for "60 Minutes" which is scheduled to air this Sunday. The report quotes McNamee's attorney as saying, "We're not going to sue him if he doesn't do it. But if he does it, we're going to sue him."
I will be interested in seeing what McNamee has to say in his lawsuit if it does ever happen. It would probably involve a claim for defamation which would require McNamee to prove he was not lying. If he can do that, it would prove more detrimental to Roger Clemens than the Mitchell Report.
