The rumors that he took steroids are just that....rumors. Until someone can PROVE any of this, it is all just speculation. Unlike Bonds, who admitted to using steroids, just not knowing that they were steroids (according to leaked Grand Jury Testimony).
So, the science of ANDRO does not matter. He was a big guy coming into the league, hitting 49 HR his rookie season. It is not unfathomable to believe that he could gain weight or muscle by working out alone. Maybe the "ANDRO" acted as a placebo for him. As I stated previously, until someone can prove McGwire took steroids, IMHO he did not. And if the only "proof" is written in Canseco's book....that thing is so full of mistruths, it reads like John Kerry's war record.
If the physical evidence doesn't prove it for you, at least we can be sure of one other thing....
you Bonds/McGwire KoolAid types will never put down the cups....
If he didnt take 'roids, where was his denial, when he was under oath last week ????
Even the sportswriters that were doling out the kool-aid have come around.....but hey.
I'ts still a free country, facts dont have to mean anything, if you choose to see it that way.
