That's what Roger Clemens is going to be paid for throwing a baseball this summer. He announced his return to the Yankees last night from George Steinbrenner's box at Yankee Stadium. The Yankees will pay him $28, 000, 022.00 (the last 22 is for his uniform #--isn't that cute?) for his skills.

Clemens, who has amassed quite an impressive resume, will turn 45 in August.

Mind boggling.
