But a few points about your points:
1) Taped conversation. Notice during the conversation he never asks McNamee "Why did you lie about injecting me with steroids when you know that I've never taken them?" or something along those lines.
2) He offers a report on his career. So?
3) His stats. His stats are tremendous. The best pitcher of his generation. How good would they have to be for you to be at least a little suspicious?
4) His body hasn't changed. Besides for Kevin Brown, can you name a pitcher that has either been suspended or listed on the Mitchell Report whose body has noticibly changed? The hitters bulk up for the power. The pitchers are aiming for recovery and the extra 2-3 MPH, not turning into Barry Bonds.

He told McNamee to tell the truth. He obviously wasnt talking about which weights he used. Common sense tells you he didnt have to say steroids.
What other evidence does he have besides his career?
His stats are suspicious? He had quality seasons besides the ones he was suppose to be using steroids after 1997. What about when he was in Houston. Or did he have another trainer giving him steroids?
Even if they take them for to different things shouldnt taking steroids give you some of the same physical signs?
