'Roid Rage: Mark McGwire - Yawn - Apologizes to Baseball

• Hey there, I saw some info on this page and I like it. Is it ok if I copy it and backlink to you?

• Approximately 6,600,000,000 men and women inhabit the globe, 3 quarters have heard of jesus. One human talking in one single country, initiated this, through word of mouth. Internet users have the world wide web with which to reach all of those people, all this at your fingertips, you can change anything, go for it bad boys!!!!!!

• Here is the problem with allowing steroids. You not only allow players to use them, you force players to use them who otherwise would not out of fear of loosing their job to some one who is. And when did athletes become responsible adults? If a little does this much good... Next thing you know there is a run on Barry Bonds size batting helments.

• I think Cactusflinthead hit it right on the ..um.. head. Legal or not, it was still cheating and personally I hope that none of the admitted, or caught, users are ever inducted. Whether or not it is the most popular, most attended or draws the most TV ratings, Baseball to me is still America's game in spirit and it is still a travesty when that spirit is violated.

• Bring on the 'roids!! I want to see 120mph fastballs being thrown to 300lb sluggers who can hit the ball into the next zip code!! I want to see 290lb runnnig backs with 4.3 speed being chased down by linebackers who are bigger and faster than the running backs!! Bring the 'roids on!!

• @dr g: i enjoy you almost as much as your impersonators.

• Tap the brakes. McGuire is no more a Hall of Famer than I am. Power hitting alone does not get you into the Hall. There's 4 other tools to consider.

• Dave, No statute of limitations has passed that I know of, but I also don't believe he actually "lied" to congress. If memory serves he just refused to talk about it saying something to the affect of "I don't want to talk about what happened in the past, I was to discuss the future" thereby never saying he didn't use steroids. Make no mistake this is just a very shrewd PR move by McGwire to hopefully get him into the HOF.

• If any of these baseball players want to show true remorse, then volunteer to have the stats from their tainted years stricken from their record. If then, they are still worthy of the hall, then so be it. If I get drunk, drive and run into a tree, can I use his adage? I was drunk,but that wasn't the reason I ran into the tree. The only reason he spoke was for selfish reasons. I think him, A-Rod, Giambi and the whole bunch who confessed should be punished severely. They cheated. The cheaters who haven't confessed (Bonds, Sosa and the rest)are a bunch of pussy low life's who should never be considered for MLB positions or HOF.

• "Why now all of a sudden, is he admitting it?" So he can take the hitting coach job with St Louis!

• Why now all of a sudden, is he admitting it? Is there a Statute of Limitations, or something like that, which pertains to perjury and lying to a congressional panel?

• I have to agree with: "In retrospect, he was merely the most prolific hitter in baseball's most intriguing, fabricated era. Fake boobs aren't authentic, but they're still fun to watch. Right?" and that he should be in the Hall of Fame. It is only fair. There is no telling how many are in that used them and how many that are using now that will be put in the Hall in the future. I do NOT agree that he should be commended for anything. He cheated and came clean to finally clear his own conscious. Nothing particularly noble about that. It was only to benefit himself.

• He should have just kept his mouth shut. His story is worse than his denial. He only took small doses, HA. They didn't help him hit homeruns, Stupid. That dude was juicing as much or more than Canseco was, he just happened to have more natural ability than Canseco.

• "Funny how he ca$hed in back in 1998 and now he wants to cash in on sympathy" Bingo

• scott always enjoyed playing butt darts as a boy

• @drg, take heed: Yes, it will, Precious, won't it? It will get the hose! dr.g put the effing lotion in the basket!

• @the fake drg's, sorry dear sports but me is here to stay, cease and desist, move along or else the beating you incur will surely leave you to ask for pity..like the Norsemen of Minnesota shall beg for this Sunday.

• Yeah, it matters to me. The fact that everyone was doing it is the same argument I made with my parents. It still doesn't hold any water. It was wrong. I might be willing to let in the steroid era players after they let in Shoeless Joe. As far as I am concerned the entire collection of CHEATERS belongs in their own tainted wing. Take the Black Sox, the steroid era players and put them in their own area with all the lip-smacking videos of Clemens, the finger wagging Raffy and the no Ingles Sammy for all the world to see. I don't like playing a game or watching one when I know it is rigged. If the Olympics can manage to have world records and thorough testing of athletes then MLB can do the same.

• dear mr mcguire...baseball bores me to tears, too. oh, what? that's not why you were crying? oh, it was the fake apology? well, maybe the tears have been believable if the apology had been. and, it's all about as surprising as satan palin joining fox "news". it's amazing how the american publis continually taken in by fakes and liers.

• Since I'm the original, I'll say that while obsession is at first flattering, it soon becomes scary. Sorry everyone has to suffer through these non amusing posts with my name attached to them. However, I'm very certain that all regular readers know the source.

• you are entertaining no one but yourself

• @Dr G. BORING, your schtick is not funny.

• Funny how he ca$hed in back in 1998 and now he wants to cash in on sympathy Paul the Damn Viking, die die die

• Good morn mates, as the resident Physician for the good ol Sportatorium, I say RW..quite the opinion of both baseball being boring and steroids being good. I am sure the wrath of the unwashed is sure to visit this missive post haste. I am quite sure that Sir Robert of the golden haired Carpenter clan has either found an elixir of mystical origins or some HGH in the recent past, for his performance in the last two weeks has surpassed his limited output of which we had previously observed. That being said in clinical trials, with regulated steroid applications to the serf know as Scott, we have been able to increase the output of his eppiglotis 300 %..which has drastically increased his earning potential on the street which you call Harry of Hines.

• Mr. Selig-I am shocked, shocked there is steroid use going on in here! Mr. Fehr-Mr. Commissioner, here are your winnings! Mr. Selig-Oh, thank you very much! borrowed from elb160
