Mac admits using steroids...

[tjm5711]

The worst kept secret in America is now finally revealed. Good for Mac. Loved him when he was with the A's.

I wonder how much longer Bonds, Clemens, et al will keep up their charade...

Clemens will probably take it to the grave! LOL

God bless you Mark. I hope you, and the fans, find healing in this admission.

What! Big Mac did what? No way! This can't be true! Did anyone else see this coming?

The truth will set him free

a damn shame...thats all there is too say. I was a Mac supporter for years through all of this; giving him the benefit of the doubt. Mac, Bonds, Manny, Raffy, Arod...all busted. What a sad day for baseball. If this was the olympics they all would've been stripped of whatever glory/awards they won as well as there teams. WTF baseball?!? This one hurts.

I do maintain my argument that as a professional athelete you are paid to be bigger and stronger, so over a 10-20 year career they should become larger then life. And yes, while steriods can't give you the ability to hit a ball, it can definately help you to become a freak.

Chalk another one up to Canseco.

I wonder if this effects his status with the Cards or if he was asked to come clean by them?! What prompted this?

<sigh>

Wade:

Of course the Cardianls knew this (it was the worst kept secret in baseball); but I'm sure they asked him to "come clean" prior to Spring Training so that it wasn't a distraction throughout the season....LaRussa and the Cardinals had originally stated that McGwire was going to address the media prior to Christmas, but I suppose that Mac was holding off as long as he could....

Wow what a shock! Not! He was one of my favorite players I spent 100s on a baseball from his Steiner signing and I realize many players used in that era but to me he is still not a hall of famer. Big Mac did very little besides hit home runs and it is impossible to know how many of them were tainted. He never won an MVP, did not reach 2,000 hits, had a very low batting average, no speed and struck out a ton. He won a Gold Glove but he was not exactly Eddie Murray with the glove.
