Juiced

So this is a little bit of a combination of days here...it's a blog hybrid if you will. Taking a touch of sports and a touch of pop culture and see what we end up with.

So they are reporting on ESPN that Jose Canseco feels that his book "Juiced" was the biggest mistake that he has made. The main reason is that he didn't realize that it was going to blow up the way it did and hurt so many people.

I think Jose may have juiced his brain a bit. Really, what did you think was going to happen when you wrote a book about steroid use in baseball....and named names in it!!! You didn't see the blow up coming? Wow...I thought it was just a guys junk that steroids were supposed to shrink. I didn't realize it was the brain that shrunk as well.

When you write a book exposing what guys are doing, especially something that they would prefer not be public knowledge, there are going to be repercussions. He brought to light a practice that is cheating as well as illegal. How did he think these guys were going to react to it? Tell him that it's okay? Did you think that Major League Baseball would just pretend that it hadn't happened?

I'm sorry but I can't feel bad for Jose. He made his bed and now he has to lie in it. When you tattle on people you leave yourself open for the aftermath...you should know that from the very beginning. Peace and Love y'all.
