NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Mindy McCready has "caught her breath" and gone back to work on a new album following her admission of a long-standing relationship with Roger Clemens, a representative for the country star said Wednesday.

McCready told The New York Daily News on Monday that she "cannot refute anything" in the newspaper's original report posted Sunday night on its Web site. The story said Clemens and McCready met in a Florida karaoke bar when she was a 15-year-old aspiring singer and he was a 28-year-old pitcher for the Boston Red Sox and a married father of two.

McCready, who's currently signed to Denver-based Iconic Records, has had a string of legal and personal problems in recent years and was sentenced last September for violating probation from a 2004 drug arrest. She was released from jail Dec. 30.

The newspaper reported that Clemens sent cash to McCready to help her with legal issues and reached out to her when she was in jail.

Clemens' lawyer, Rusty Hardin, confirmed that the pitcher and singer had known each other for a long time but told the newspaper that no sex was involved. At no time did Clemens engage in inappropriate or improper relationship with her, said Hardin, who described McCready as a longtime friend of Clemens and his family.

I am so surprised (okay, not really) that I haven't seen more blogs on this considering the hero worship this town seems to have for jocks. 

All I see is a lying dopehead pedophile whose "All American" persona is coming apart at the seams the more people dig into it.    

Well, color me shocked!  The brand new Pasadena Memorial High School's football team, the Mustangs, is up against Katy High School for some football championship.  They play tomorrow I think, in Rice Stadium.

I don't know much about high school football, but I know enough that for the 'Stangs to have made it this far being such a young team, that it's good.  But I also know enough that they really don't stand a chance against Katy's team; mainly because there's no way that Pasa-Mem has the fan base and support that Katy does, and since morale is so important, that's a big obstacle in and of itself.

But, I have to cheer for the home team, and if they win, great.  They did well for being so young!!

Well, the final swim meet of our season is Saturday, and the South Belt Sharks are UNDEFEATED!!  We knew we had a good team, but we didn't expect THIS!! 

Our final meet is against the Nassau Bay Nauticats.  We are hopeful, but have yet to defeat them as they are an AWESOME team, with GREAT parents who are friendly and warm to all the kids as well as the adults.  

Our kids are nervous, but optimistic.  We parents are trying to be encouraging without putting too much pressure on them.  They are as excited as we are..probably even more so since THEY'RE the ones out there doing the work!!

You can check out the Sharks at www.sbast.com .  Wish us luck!!

Well, for Christmas I bought my dear sweet husband two tickets to the NASCAR Busch race at Texas Motor Speedway next weekend.

Outside of lots of cameras & lip gloss (after all, you can never be too ready to meet Kasey Kane!)  what would be good to take?   Any other race fans out there, please advise!!
