Willis McGahee's Dentist 61 Posted June 8, 2016 3 years before Caneco's book. Caminiti was doing it for the right reasons, as well as having no friends and hating everyone. Canseco did it to make money. hardly a hero He is to me. He had the balls to name names. A lot of frauds were revealed because of Canseco. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edjr 7,039 Posted June 8, 2016 He is to me. He had the balls to name names. A lot of frauds were revealed because of Canseco. do you remember when the book 1st came out? he was a laughing stock, a punchline, a sham. No one believed him. Not until the Mitchell report. Sadly, he is still all those things. a joke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 16,057 Posted June 8, 2016 Right, but why does this merit mentioning? Just pointing out where his drug abuse led him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly, he is still all those things. a joke. This was what I remembered, which is why I had asked my initial question. They guy was labeled a money grabber and a fraud. But I believe over time, everything he claimed was proven right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly, he is still all those things. a joke. Yeah, the Mitchel report was a ton of money and manpower investigating to prove what Canseco had been saying all along. Canseco had a reputation of being a bit flakey. So his original claims were looked at a bit apprehensively. But he was spot on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I believe over time, everything he claimed was proven right? most of what he said in the book re: steroids was proven. The guy is a habitual liar and most other stuff that spewed from his mouth has been B.S. He's just one of those dudes that craves constant attention and will say anything really.

What does that have to do with the fact that he was 100% correct about all the cheaters in baseball? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hardcore troubadour 16,057 Posted June 8, 2016 Canseco was and is a lot more fun than Bonds. Bonds is a bore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kilroy69 1,273 Posted June 8, 2016 Well bonds does have black balls....I assume that is. We would have to get them out of Edjrs mouth before we can be sure and I don't think he is giving them up that easy. They are lodged deep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Willis McGahee's Dentist 61 Posted June 8, 2016 I thought Bonds tried suing the league for collusion. Whatever happened there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
