Also, like I've said for years. You can use steroids all you want, but it wont help you hit the ball any better. It takes amazing hand eye coordination to be able to hit something that is traveling 95mph in which you have less than half a second to make up your mind if you will or wont swing.
It was like that snow border kid in the winter olympics a few years back that got his gold medal taken away for testing positive for weed...WEED, I mean come on, dude scores a gold medal while toking a doob, I'd give that mother fucker 10 gold medals for that.

Yeah, some nobody taking roids isn't going to help him become a hitter if he wasn't already one before, but McGwire already knew how to hit, and already had the hand-eye coordination, all he wanted was more power. |

Every power hitter from that era (except Griffey) was linked to roids in some form or another.
MLB turned a blind eye to it, as long as stadiums were full. Guys like McGwire and Sosa put baseball back on the map in '98, and nobody gave a damn then. Chicks dig the long ball.

I dont see what the big deal is...Other than hwo it looks for Americas Youth that all of there Favorite Baseball Players are Roid Heads...But it helps the body heal quicker and Mcgwire is right...Baseball is a LONG season and there was a SHITTON of pressure on him that year to break the record...And as has already been stated...Steroids make you stronger they dont help you hit home runs.
