Roger Clemens has a 10-year personal services contract with the Astros, and Jim Crane would welcome Clemens to start that contract whenever he's ready.
First: Before you get outraged about this possibility, would you really deny someone the right to honor a contract that the Astros offered?
Second: What if it pissed Bud Selig right off? Then how would you feel?
I don't have a single solitary problem with Roger Clemens coming back for the personal services contract with the Astros - sure, he has plenty of money (presuming Rusty Hardin didn't siphon off 75% of Clemens' wealth for Bangs Maintenance) - but the guy has a right to work.
And if it makes Selig upset, I'm even more in favor.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.

The Astros, they're like Disneyland. If the kids come, it's a great attraction.

Yep, I think I might be fine with it for reason #2 alone.
Yeah, I was on the fence, but #2.
I think I would get behind anything the Astros did if it pissed off Bud Selig.
