This explains it all about McGwire. He really was great, but now will never receive the credit not that he deserves, but that he EARNED.

Yeah I dont know about this. I'm sure he did use em to heal faster but he kept using em to break records."(Shoeless Joe Jackson's fall from grace is one of the real tragedies of baseball. I always thought he was more sinned against than sinning." -- Connie Mack
"I have the ultimate respect for Whitesox fans. They were as miserable as the Cubs and Redsox fans ever were but always had the good decency to keep it to themselves. And when they finally won the World Series, they celebrated without annoying every other fan in the country."--Jim Caple, ESPN (Jan. 12, 2011)

And by using roids to overcome injuries; he was able to overcome his inability to hit homeruns due to those injuries.
Seems like a circular arguement....
So far; effords to divide roiders into 'good' and 'bad' camps is a EPIC FAIL.
If there's one good thing, it's that Mccwire still isn't in the HOF.

IMO, the smartest thing Mac did was jump out and admit to using andro. If anything, I think it kept MLB from actually testing him deeper to see what he was really using. Perception is key. When you voluntarily submit information, it can often lead people to look the other way because you're a "good, honest guy". I never bought it and never will."Chuckie doesn't take on 2-0. Chuckie's hackin'." - Chuck Carr two days prior to being released by the Milwaukee Brewers
