How ironic...

Not really, Canseco wasn't viewed as a trustworthy guy, and he got blacklisted badly for speaking out. I remember everyone and their mom was trashing him as an attention-seeker and questioned the truthfulness of his accusations, based on questionable motives.

how did you sig that quote, everytime i try it messes up.

If you know when you'll be testing, you're gonna past the test. Setting your own schedule is a NO NO.

The only event that is perfectly safe from steroid allegations is the World's Strongest Man Competition.

You get banned if you're NOT on the juice.

Probably because he wasn't gaining any traction in getting votes for the HOF. That, and he's apparently going to rejoin baseball as a Cardinals batting coach. But I doubt he decided to go public out of the goodness of his heart - he absolutely has motives for coming out now.

anyone know why all of a sudden he admitted to it? Didnt he go infront of a court and swear under oath, that he didnt take anything???

sorry i just thought this smily was hillarious

Baseball is not strict with steroids like the NFL and NBA.

Don't make me laugh.

That was it. He didn't really have a choice after not making the HOF.

He could've kept quiet and penned a book about it later, but his conscience wouldn't let him rest.

Yeah, totally. He is back in the spotlight as the Cardinals new Hitting Coach. He'd get bombarded with the steroid accusation questions so might as well clear the air here and now before the season starts. He wants to look like the nice guy in the end but, once a cheat always a cheat.

Free to get back on the juice without restrictions.
