APNewsBreak: McGwire Admits Using Steroids

File this one under "Duh!" or "Obvious". Mark McGwire has admitted to steroids use. Something that some people have suspected for around two decades with him. None the less you knew this was coming once the St. Louis Cardinals hired him as a hitting coach.

Now, just think how much different his legacy would have been if he had chosen "to speak about the past" back when it mattered.



I will say once again though that I am surprised that more names haven't been released tied to steroids. I wrote about it at length during the playoffs.
