Sosa wasn't juicing. Bonds and McGwier were. Nobody cares though - MacGuier still got the publicity.

McGwier was juicing and got caught after the fact (which was a stabbed in the heart) but wasn't Sosa also caught juicing? I remember the corked bat incident before he retired (and honestly, after hearing how almost everyone who was somebody in baseball was juicing in the late 1990s to 2000s a crooked bat isn't that bad in comparison, in my opinion).GrumpyCatFace wrote:FIFYFife wrote:FFS, the spelling is not that hard.

Yep, that is his name's correct spelling:Fife wrote:FFS, the spelling is not that hard.
*McGwire*
http://content.time.com/time/health/art ... 29,00.htmlThe saddest part about Mark McGwire's insistence that he was naturally "given the gift to hit home runs" — even as he copped Jan. 11 to a near decade's worth of steroid use — is that it might just be true. He did, after all, smash the single-season home-run record for rookies with 49 long balls in 1987 — two years before, he says now, he first tried doping. Could he have edged out Sammy Sosa to crush Roger Maris' 37-year-old home-run record in 1998 — knocking 70 balls out of the park — even without juicing? Fans will never know.
