Brian McNamee Weighs in on Fallout from the Steroid Scandal

Brian McNamee, former personal trainer to baseball’s Roger Clemens, Andy Pettitte and Chuck Knoblauch, made a rare media appearance today on the Howard Stern Show for a one-hour interview, which can only be seen on Howard TV On Demand. But the interview may have been more than he bargained for; the trainer-turned-government informant had to endure endless prying by Stern into his personal life and situation with Clemens. McNamee said he figured that if he could handle testifying before Congress on giving Clemens performance-enhancing drugs, he thought he could handle Stern.
Stern grilled him on his former life as a cop; why he saved the needles and exactly where he kept them; if he was forced to testify; and why he didn’t lie to federal agents. Stern asked for specific details about how and where he injected Clemens’ wife. He asked about Clemens’ ass; about gay baseball players and if he had any revelations about well-endowed baseball players. The two also talked about how much jail time McNamee would have gotten if he had not testified; about what kind of player Roger Clemens would have been without steroids and of course Stern asked him about the recent revelation about Alex “A-Rod” Rodriguez. Stern said it must be very hard to turn someone in and asked if he sleeps at night. McNamee said, “I’m golden. I just told the truth.”
The entire interview can be seen beginning tomorrow, Tuesday, February 10 on the Howard TV On Demand and will be available for three weeks. For more information or to upload or link to a short clip, go to http://pressoffice.howardtv.com
