I agree with Alderman French that Mark McGwire’s name should be removed from I-70 but for different reasons. I could care less about his use of steroids. How do we know Kurt Warner never used steroid or HGH? McGwire never lived in St. Louis, nor did Kurt Warner. Both choose the suburbs when they are here, and McGwire has since moved to Cali. If you want to honor a St. Louis legend, why not Chuck Berry? He at least grew up in the Ville.
