There's a new reason for us to hate Roger Clemens. Indirectly. Baseball legends Clemens, Reggie Jackson, Joe Morgan and Pete Rose were treated to plane rides, strippers and hookers, among other things, from a "friend" named Kenneth Jowdy. Unfortunately, Jowdy paid for the plane rides, strippers and hookers using money 19 current or former NHLers invested with him in a golf resort that was never built. Oops! Five of the NHL veterans, who are now suing Jowdy, played for the Bruins. Sergei Gonchar, Glen Murray, Bryan Berard, Dmitri Khristich and Jozef Stumpel all spent time in Boston and lost between $250,000 and $500,000. Morgan, already not popular with the Nation, denies involvement.
