“You Know What Else is Uncalled For? Sucking!”

Ahead of the drubbing taken by Roger Clemens in tonight’s AL All-Star Game victory, Seth Stevenson had a great smackdown of the Rocket on Slate today, certain to be of interest to fans of the Red Sox. Or Yankees. Or Mets. Or Blue Jays. Or really, anyone else.

Stevenson says many things that we’ve all wanted to say at one time or another, and also asks some hard-hitting questions. Such as, with such a celebrated, hard-core exercise regimen, how is Clemens still so fat?

There is one glaring factual error, however. Stevenson (or more likely, his headline writer) refers to Clemens as “the greatest pitcher of all time.” In reality, he’s not even in the top ten.
