More on McGwire

The Brockett Blog looks back at the McGwire record:

It just seems impossible that events that brought about so much joy and attention, that could make Verducci write things like "America is a Baseball Nation again, and Mark McGwire is the head of state," could be revised so conclusively with embarassment and muted emotions. "If they cheated, isn't this right?" I tell myself. To borrow Taylor's metaphor, though, we're well aware that the relationship is over. Would it be so wrong to look back, however briefly, and still smile?
