Who Screwed Roger Clemens?

I can't remember if I shamelessly plugged this before, but there's a goofy little exercise I've been doing since it became apparent that the Astros fielders and hitters (who are surprisingly one and the same!) tend to get sloppy when Roger Clemens is on the mound and hurling his best performances.

It's called Who Screwed Roger Clemens Bingo.

The game is simple. I lay out a Bingo card with the roster arranged in a not-so-random order:

Then as each player makes a Clemens-screwing error at the plate, around the basepaths, or in the field I'll tint their square red.

The worse the screwover, the redder. (Ensberg hurls one over Lance's head - slightly red. Ausmus kills a rally with a GIDP - redder. Lane comes in to Pinch-K - even redder. Qualls or Lidge blowing a save - solid red.)

I'll be livebingoing the game over at isfullofcrap.com tonight if you want to play along. I'll also be on most of the major chat networks as isfullofcrap if you think I've been overly harsh or not harsh enough.

Or, you can whip together your own Bingo card. Just be sure to arrange the starters and the other starting pitchers in a way so a Bingo actually is possible.
