....during home run race with Sammy.

Scottw · 01-11-2010, 02:18 PM

Wow, who'd ever think that he was on them. hahahaha. What a putz.

01-11-2010, 02:18 PM

Shocking

McGwire says, "It's the first time they've ever heard me, you know, talk about this. I hid it from everybody."

Uh, no you didn't.

The andro was always the red herring.

Surprise surprise!!

Parshooter · 01-11-2010, 02:50 PM

Oh, NOW he wants to talk about the past. What an ass. Can't believe he got votes for the HOF.

Apparently, when a check is on the line, it's time to talk about the past. Not when testifying, under oath, in front of a Senate Committee.

+2 though i'm not surprised.

AD720 · 01-11-2010, 03:23 PM

It's incredible how obvious it is and that these guys still flatly deny it. It's insulting really.

Does anyone believe for a second that Bonds wasn't juicing?

If so I've got some prime Alaskan beach front property you may be interested in...

geez, I live an ocean away, baseball is just a minor sport over here, and even I knew back then that he used steroids.

GreekGodX · 01-11-2010, 05:10 PM

Actually McGwire never denied using. In the federal jury trial he repeated, "I'm not here to talk about the past".

He's only doing this so 1. People will forgive him 2. He won't face questions about it during spring training coaching the Cards 3. Getting into the HOF.

1. People will forgive him (I bet most won't)

2. He won't face questions about it during spring training coaching the Cards
(It's gonna be a circus)

3. Getting into the HOF (not bloody likely)

Still give him some props for having cajones though...bet Bonds and Sosa don't.

Sammy has cajones for doing this to himself.

WTF?!?!?!?!
Is that real?!?!

hotreds · 01-11-2010, 09:16 PM

Yes- he said he was doing some kind of skin treatment that went awry.

kugie · 01-13-2010, 05:05 AM

The only thing is that the pitchers were doing it and he crushed the balls they threw at him. There was no testing back then it was against the law of the United States not baseball. If he gets in to the HOF it is because The rest of the legue was doing it as well. IMO
Who cares about the past, move on.
PS he won't get in to the HOF for one reason, he only did one thing, he did it well mind you. He hit home runs. BA below 270, fielding was ok at best one gold glove That about sums it up. IMHO
