Was Mcgwire cheating? Hmmm. Dunno fer sure. Sure seems like Barry Bonds has been.
I wonder what they took in Roger Maris's day? Something I'll bet. Caffeine? Cocain even maybe. There is also talk about them "juicing" the ball now too. Making it more lively. Although pitching was not near as strong in those days.
What did the Goliath people feed to him to get him that big? I'll bet some people think it's cheating.
My point to all that...? None really. There is always differences... these things are never even. They say that there will never be another NBA player as dominant as Wilt Chamberlian. That might be true... but he'd not be special in today's league. Not at all. The level of the other players has risen DRAMATICALLY.
