Attention Mark McGwire

I've got to find the testimony that McGwire gave in that congressional hearing a few years back. "I am not here to talk about the past". What might I ask are you there to discuss then???

I had the chance to see McGwire play during his record-breaking home-run season during a game against the New York Mets. He hit a home-run during the game and literally swatted the ball out of the stadium. Straight-up backhanded it out there like he was holding a tennis racket. SI recently published an article in its latest magazine that chronicles Barry Bonds' stats over his entire career. This includes his height and weight as well as pictures of him. If you get the chance I'd recommend checking it out. If you take a look those pictures you can definitely see the man putting on weight...inconsistently. Being an avid fan of bodybuilding myself and I know that even "professional" bodybuilders when adding mass generally put it on consistently and not in large spurts. For a normal human being putting on 5 pounds of muscle per year is considered great. I know from personal experience. Genetics plays a huge part in being able to add muscle mass and granted these guys are professional athletes so they have that part working for them. I highly doubt that McGwire will ever be voted into the Hall of Fame.

Well apparently being "frank and candid" won't get you punished by the MLB commissioner. I doubt it, but I wonder if this will get anyone else to come forth and be "frank and candid".
