In a statement sent to the media today by Mark McGwire, the former Home Run champion came clean about using steroids "on and off for a decade," something many had suspected for a long time. This confession, which undoubtedly came as no shock to many avid baseball fans, is nonetheless disappointing to hear that yet another star in the "steroid era" has admitted to using.
"I'm sure people will wonder if I could have hit all those home runs had I never taken steroids," McGwire said. "I had good years when I didn't take any, and I had bad years when I didn't take any. I had good years when I took steroids, and I had bad years when I took steroids. But no matter what, I shouldn't have done it and for that I'm truly sorry."
