Clemens will testify

Ward also suggested that if Clemens were to contradict McNamee's testimony, he would likely be indicted for lying under oath. "If (Clemens' attorney Rusty Hardin) allows his client to go before Congress and testify under oath, I don't think we'll be talking about Roger Clemens being inducted (into the Hall of Fame), I think we'll be talking about Roger Clemens being indicted," Ward told ESPN. Despite Ward's claims, Hardin said Clemens has every intention of going before Congress. "I want to make very clear that there has been absolutely no change in Roger's willingness and indeed desire to testify under oath before Congress in a public hearing at a date of the Oversight Committee's choosing," Hardin said. "Any suggestion that he or we are having any second thoughts about that is absolutely false."
