MLB news: Roger Clemens indicted for perjury<\/strong><\/p>\n Roger Clemens\u2019 battle for his reputation and legacy is far from over. On Thursday, a federal grand jury incited Clemens on six counts of perjury. The seven-time Cy Young winner allegedly lied to Congress about using steroids. He made 15 different statements under oath denying his use of performance-enhancers.<\/p>\n Clemens still denies using HGH or steroids and claims he never lied to Congress. Unlike Mark McGwire, who admitted steroid use, Clemens vows not to go down without a fight. He said he looks forward to \u201cchallenging the Government\u2019s accusations.\u201d Barry Bonds is scheduled to go on trial for similar charges in March.<\/p>\n NFL news: Percy Harvin collapses in practice; league upholds Brian Cushing\u2019s suspension<\/strong><\/p>\n Percy Harvin is one of the most dynamic, explosive offensive players in football. However, as the Vikings have learned over the last year, he\u2019s also one of the most delicate.<\/p>\n Harvin has battled severe migraines on and off throughout his career and the problem came to a head in practice yesterday. In his fourth day back after missing two weeks due to the migraines, Harvin collapsed on the field. The incident was reportedly triggered by looking up at the bright, cloud-covered sky to field a punt. Shortly afterward, Harvin was on the ground, trembling and unresponsive. <\/p>\n He was admitted to hospital yesterday but has reportedly become more alert and shown \u201cencouraging signs.\u201d His concerned teammates said a prayer for him.<\/p>\n It\u2019s official: Brian Cushing won\u2019t play the first four games for Houston this year. The Texans\u2019 sophomore linebacker was suspended for using PEDs in May and, despite his appeal, the league decided yesterday to uphold the ban. Cushing\u2019s camp claimed that a unique medical condition, not actual drug use, triggered the positive test.<\/p>\n Way may not see Tim Tebow starting in the NFL any time soon. The Denver Broncos extended quarterback Kyle Orton\u2019s contract through 2011with a one-year, $9-million deal with $5.5 million guaranteed.<\/p>\n NBA news: Thunder center Krstic arrested for brawl in Athens<\/strong><\/p>\n Eat your heart out, Malice at the Palace.
