If you really want to..

Head over to the MLB.com coverage of the Roger Clemens testimony before Congress. Although the start of this writeup sounds like Joan Rivers should be covering it:
After winning seven Cy Young Awards and 354 games in the Major Leagues, Roger Clemens climbed a Hill one more time on Wednesday for the most important matchup of his career.

Amid former trainer Brian McNamee's allegations that Clemens used performance-enhancing drugs as part of his training program for the latter stages of his celebrated career, Clemens appeared Wednesday on Capitol Hill to tell his tale before Congress and a national audience.

Wearing a navy suit, red tie and blue shirt, Clemens entered Room 2154 of the Rayburn House Office Building at 10:04 a.m. ET amid a flurry of shutter clicks, flanked by his attorneys and his wife, Debbie. McNamee entered a minute later from a different entrance wearing a gray suit, white shirt and silver tie, and did not appear to acknowledge Clemens.

This part doesn't sound uncomfortable at all:
Clemens and McNamee took their respective seats one chair apart for a hearing titled "The Mitchell Report: The Illegal Use of Steroids in Major League Baseball, Day 2." Once partners who shared a common interest -- namely, escalating Clemens' physical performance through grueling, military-style workouts -- their stories now could not be any more different.
