That guy would implicate his own mother if he could get a book deal out of it.

Before the Mitchell report came out, I would have written this off as a fabrication. But since that report came out, and it confirmed a lot of things Canseco said in his book, I'm inclined to believe him.

How can you believe this man? Jessica has been involved with Playboy. Why would A-Rod chase her. Might be a poll question.

A, tell us it ain't so! You are the Epitome of the Yankees and Fantasy Player of the Year.

I'm sure A-Rod hitting on Canseco's wife has nothing to do with Canseco implicating that A-Rod took roids. Maybe A-Rod thought she was an easy target after watching her and Mrs. Clemens comparing "enhancements" for all to see.

Just because Canseco introduced A-Rod to some scumbag at his party doesn't mean that A-Rod became a client. I've been introduced to a few "street pharmacists" but I never got caught up in that.

Of course, I say this because I want to believe A-Rod is clean. Even though he's a Yankee, he's one of my favorite players. If it comes out that he's been using, I will be extremely disappointed, but definitely not surprised. I don't think anything could surprise me about MLB steriod use now.

David Eckstein has been a frequent abuser during his entire career?

Canseco also said that 60 Minutes' Mike Wallace asked him where he could get some HGH as well...

**cmoneyr** · 03-26-2008, 10:14 AM

Believe him or not he's still a *****, there is absolutely no reason for him to release this information other than to line his pockets. Since when did it become Jose Canseco's job to out all the steroid users in baseball?

Somebody please make Canseco go away. I am tired of hearing about him implicating other players in a so-called tell-all truthful book. The man is trying to make a quick buck because he blew all of his money he earned when he was playing baseball.

**Wesley** · 03-26-2008, 10:19 AM

And he replied that Roger Clemons youthful wife could get him some (HGH)?

MSNBC and CNN should hire him soon since A-ROD and Roger dodger are apparently well paid "Republicans." Players making more than $10M a year appear to be on the radar scope of Mr. Canseco, Locker Room Reporter from Beyond.

Just wonder why football is not more involved in the discussion. Eli Manning is on top of the world after playing Peyton for a season: Photo Gallery - Fanhouse

Is anyone seriously surprised? People may not like Canseco, but I wouldn't be surprised if everyone in baseball used. MLB doesn't care so why should any of the players. No need for outrage or feign shock.

I wouldn't be suprised if any pro or amature athlete, actor, model etc used some kind of illegal help to look or perform the way they do... The real sad thing is the percentages of high school athletes that are using these drugs.

Let's see, is it worth $3M in more salary due to better stats and performance on the field if I take HGH to help me through the long babseball season? Should I do it or not? Will the kids care? Is there any long term health effects? Will anyone know? Will anyone besides two bulldogs in Congress care? Guess not.
