McGwire Admits Steriod Use

[JaoSming]

I don't have an article but watching this on ESPN right now.

I never thought he would fess up, but he claims he could see himself hitting all of those homers without them.


just, shame, but not surprising


anyway, a perjury trial can't be too far away from him

he'll probly get a plea bargain and not got in trouble whatsoever. I dont understand why this is news: everyone who testified in that committee seems to have actually been on 'roids: its just a matter of whether we have confessions or proof. I couldnt care less, i loved baseball in the 'roid era and am not too worried about its integrity (with selig as commish there's not alot of integrity left). But according to what i read Big mac wont get put up for perjury because he never lied. He danced around it and didnt say anything: but he never lied to the courts.

Best part was seeing a bunch of talking heads on ESPN trying to out offend each other over it. This wasn't even news back when it happened, there were tons of accusations he just finally fessed up.

That said, none of these players should get in legal trouble. The idea that the Congress was holding hearings on this shit and the players face perjury charges from that is the most offensive thing of the entire affair. It's almost as offensive as the idea that Congress needs to decide the college football champion.

Repeal the 17th Amendment!

he done did perjury.....he should goto jail for that

congress shouldn't have anything to do with it, but he should still be tried for perjury

When did he lie? if i remember right: his address didnt say a damn thing that was a lie (it just didnt say anything) and he pleaded the fifth on alot of direct questions. Thats illegal now?

all i can remember is that quote that he said with those glasses on where it was like "I did not use PEDs, Period." I cant find it on youtube or on any sites but ESPN ran it a few times when he admitted he used them.

I thought that was palmiero who said that.
will look around some.

Bingo: Palmiero used that line. Big mac when asked anything everything it was like that skit from chappelle. No matter what they asked "im not here to talk about the past" thats all he ever said

[JaoSming]
