I love Roger Clemens! There will always be a special place in my heart for the big oaf from Texas. Not because he’s the best pitcher I’ve ever seen, (sorry Pedro Martinez, Greg Maddux, and Randy Johnson), but because it was Clemens who introduced me to sports gambling.
It was the summer of 1986 and Clemens was unbeatable. He began the year with a 14-0 start, on his way to a 24-4 record and the first of his seven Cy Young awards. He was also on the mound when I made my first MLB wager.
