Finally! Mark McGwire admits to steriod use.... like we didn't know

Mark McGwire Comes Clean.
The man, the myth, the legend has finally come clean about his steriod use! Mark McGwire no less then 10 minutes ago decide to come clean about his tainted career. Let's be honest...does this come as a suprise to anyone at all? Does it hurt anyone's feelings? Did he think he was fooling anyone? Look back at his rookie year McGwire was only 225 pounds, his last year he was around 260 of pure muscle(well tainted muscles). He had 30 home runs his first 4 years, but then in 1992 and 1993 he only had 9 home runs in both seasons. Then the next year it jumped back up the 39 and the year following that 52. Granted he got hurt a bunch in those 2 off seasons...but that's a sign of steriod use. Tony La Russa his coach said he didn't know that Mark did steriods until he just came out about it, yeah I call bull on that. As a coach you know, especially La Russa who is a great coach, what your players are doing you just don't want to believe it until they come clean. Mark McGwire was a cheater as proven today. He does not deserve a spot in the MLB hall of fame. I hate people who have to cheat to be good at something. It's called hard work and effort...heard of it Mark? Obviously not. He and a few other players such as Barry Bonds, Rafael Palmerio and a few others do not deserve a spot in the hall of fame because they stole records from people who did it clean. This makes me sick. Come clean 10 years ago when you were in a court of law. Does that mean now that you could get jail time for being an idiot? I hope not, but I've heard people going for less then lying before the judge. Baseball is America's past time but it's slowly turning into the laughing stock of the world. Clean it up, if not for you for the sake of the kids. Thanks.
