McGwire was a fraud. His amazing feat wasn’t nearly so amazing. His courage and strength were mirages. His greatness, well, very artificial.

Worst of all, however, McGwire was a baseball thief.

I still remember when Joe Buck interviewed this guy and asked him to take a deep breath before hearing the same question again: “can you break the record?”
Of course he knew he could. How could he go on performing such a big fraud is, well, heck with you “Big” Mc.
