Mac admits using steroids...

[WadeInBmore]

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....
