Translated it sounds more like "kiss my ass, the only reason I'm admitting this is because Mr. DeWitt has brought me back into the game that I cheated for many years. If he doesn't bring me back to the game, I deny it to my grave."
he wasn't offered immunity for his testimony before congress. his refusal to discuss steroids at the time makes a lot more sense in light of that. he was basically given the choice of admitting a criminal act with no guarantee he wouldn't be prosecuted, committing perjury, or doing what he did.

i need to do some research and resurrect the barry bonds threads from a few years back. people were still insisting there was no proof he used the year he broke mcguire's "record".

those would be fun to see again.
