    I had Sinatra.

    And Canseco is really stupid. Did he bother to Google "Jim Bouton" and see what happened after Ball Four? Is he even aware there was a Ball Four?

    Something tells me that Canseco isn't a big reader.

    Hell, I wonder if he even read "Juiced," much less wrote it. He told somebody a few things he knew and threw in a good bit of educated guessing. Now he wants to take credit for making the game better when all he really wanted to do was make some money and lash out at MLB because he couldn't handle the fact that his career was over. I remember the interviews at the time, he was going on and on about being blackballed even though the truth was his skills had deteriorated and his body kept breaking down.

    Sounds to me like this is all about making it look as if he made some noble sacrifice.

    My Jose Canseco regret: I wish I'd never watched/heard him karaoke sing Wind Beneath My Wings with Mario Lopez.

    I wondered if that home run off his melon made the regret list.

    He is the Henry Hill of baseball. It's all good until you get caught, then just rat on everybody.

    How did the Kung Fu movie never get made. Maybe Jose thought he was writing a movie when he fought Hong-man Choi
