Two 60 HR seasons in 130 years of major league baseball. Then all of a sudden, in the midst of steroid prevalence in baseball, there was six 60+ HR seasons in a 4 season window. But according to McGuire " It just made me feel normal " - TOTAL NARCISSISTIC BS ! This " apology " made it even worse !

I am no McGwire fan at all but I do think baseball stars in general took too much heat for PED use due to the nature of baseball. This isn't the only sport in which steroid use is a major issue, but it's the only one that's been destroyed because of it. The NFL has never really had to face the music on this issue, and there's something fascinating about the double standard for PED users across different sports.

Gnasty G that’s not the point man. Yes he had the hand eye coordination no normal person has. But the steroids robbed the game of a beloved record and tainted the game of baseball forever. The roids easily added 20+ homeruns not to mention helped his body recover faster, an option others who didn’t take any drugs didn’t have.

I commend finally telling the truth we all knew before he did. But he still was unable to fully bear the brunt of what he actually did. We all know he couldnt have set those records with steroids because regardless of your ability his body wouldnt have allowed him a chance to once it started breaking down. The only natural way to do that and try wouldve been to semi retire get fully healthy then return like some great athlete even in that era attempted to like Griffey Jr. with some success but not like they had before. Currently we'll see if Gronkowski can do it as a TE in the NFL.

It doesn't take strength to hit a home run. If your using strength to try to hit a home run you don't know how to bat and will probably never hit one. It doesn't matter if it goes 2 inches over the wall or 200 ft over the wall. A home run is a homerun. Swing earlier and you don't even need bat speed. Just a good fastball. Prove me wrong

Not to hit one. It's possible with solid swing a pitch's velocity redirected toward the bleachers. But to regularly hit them? You need strength. The force it takes over the course of a season I don't believe someone could without having some level of strength.
