1. Isn't that what everyone under attack by an author says?
Paul O'Neill, Richard Clarke - trying to sell a book. It's the same in any situation.

Not that I believe what Canseco says. Just sayin'.;)

5. i seriously don't think Schilling was attacked by Canseco
the dude is born again after all :D

right now, IMHO, Canseco is the dickhead here (reserving the option to change my mind at a later date)

just thought that was entertaining during these McCarthy hearings

9. Ooooh that's right!
The Lord would not approve!:D

Canseco is a tool regardless of whether on not he's telling the truth.

Ahhhhh...it's nice that the government has the time and energy to conduct hearings about such pressing things. :eyes:

3. I heard that, I was like....you're a sucka!
Man, as the first reply said, people always say that when someone writes a book.

I do think Canseco's a punk though.

11. Matcom's new book: "Baseball: Battle of the Dicks"
Say something like, Jeter bathes in the blood of a dozen virgins before each home game.

You'll sell millions!

12. You got that right.
Plus, Canseco ended up basically confirming what Schilling said about the # of players using steroids! LOL.

10. Schilling is a bit of a dick...
But I think he is doing a good job in the hearings.

14. Schilling is actually cited in Canseco's book as being AGAINST steroid
use; it seems strange to me that he'd rage against it in 2001, and now say nothing about it. Oh wait, maybe that was before he'd "found God". I like him as a player, but he's a piece of shit as a person...

16. Did anyone catch Schillings comment when asked if he was for
Edited on Thu Mar-17-05 05:50 PM by rockedthevoteinMA
or against the hearings? He said, "no that's the media and the democrats."

Okay... does this guy not get it? He just insulted half of the people he is testifying in front of!

He's a great ball player, and I love the Red Sox, but... he real needs a brain implant or something.

Edited for horrible grammar.

17. Someone should point out to him....
...that der Fuhrer named steroid use as a national crisis during last year's SOTU.

:eyes:

What a tool.

18. Schilling: "I'm voting for George Bush"
'Nuff said.

(p.s. In a game of wits - Schilling vs. a potted plant - take the plant.)

19. I remember...
...thinking it was very crass of him to go on the morning news shows after winning the WS (wince) to talk about * and not the WS (wince).

24. Well, this probably ain't gonna help
I'm an Angels fan, and I think I recall beating some team from NY on the way to the Series in '02.

I know - (wince). :)

Hang in there - if two of your new starters don't get the dreaded "changing leagues" disease and Randy Johnson stays away from cameras you'll be fine.

Schilling, on the other hand, will be an asshole no matter what.

20. Hasn't everyone else been thinking that?
Seems pretty likely. Canseco acts just a little too excited about telling the dirty secrets on TV. I'm glad someone finally said it.

21. Schilling is right
If you've read the book (I have) and seen a number of people point out the inaccuracies (check ESPN.com or Olbermann's blog) - you'll realize Canseco is full of shit. Not about everything, but about A LOT of things.

22. I agree.
Don't care who Schilling is.

I was watching Canseco during an interview the other morning, and he said several times, "If you want to know, it's in my book."
"It's in my book."

Asshole. As if he hasn't made enough money.

Would be a beautiful response.
