Obviously he's a douche for doing it initially, but at least he manned up.

Unlike Pete Rose, who's never admitted to what he did - as far as I know.

Pete Rose admitted to gambling on baseball a few years ago.

Rose should be in the hall of fame well before McGwire. Rose didn't directly cheat the game while playing as McGwire did.

Yeah, it's good he finally admitted it, but he could have and should have done it years ago. That was an important summer for baseball, and with a lot of things recently it's all BS. I still have no respect for McGwire or A-Rod or Clemens or Bonds or any of the cheaters. I know people say "blame the era" and "it was just part of the game", but I don't buy that. You knew you were cheating and decided to do it.
