I think that it's too bad that all this stuff will be swept under the rug because there will never be any proof. Same with Bonds v. Aaron. He can always play another year and hit 40 home runs, even without steroids. Then, he gets the benefit of both those records, even though both are steroid-aided.
Baseball's poor handling of steroids will have a lasting mark on the game.

Fuck McGwire, Bonds and Sosa. Sosa would sell his first born to be able to get on camera. In my book, it's still Roger's (even though I hate the Yankees).
It's just strange that the coverage of McGwire breaking the record is seen in a completely different light now than when 61* was first released. Then, it was a celebration and a pretty neat transition. That's no longer so. The ending of the movie has taken a completely different meaning.
