Well, history has proved that my line of reasoning was ridiculous. I still wonder how athletes like Bonds, McGwire, Marion Jones etc... could be happy as they garnered all their fame knowing it was crap. It's something I guess I'll never understand.

Several million dollars assuages a fair amount of guilt, I guess.
