I think I just may have to get myself a copy of this book. To be honest, it will be the first book I ever buy.

the mlb-steroid witch hunt is interesting, but *******s like Canseco are giving the government more reason to take away our freedom.

******* or not he's going to make tons of money off of this book. I'm sure that was his major intent.

Out of all the players he mentions, he talks about McGwire the most by far. I love Big Mac, but I'm not convinced that he built his body naturally....and I don't care. The man was a born homerun hitter anyway. He set PAC-10 homerun records while playing at USC. He hit a rookie record 49 in 1987 at 220lbs....and Canseco even says, that to his knowledge, that season was "clean". He states that he and McGwire didn't start discussing steroids until 1988. He goes on and on about Mac's incredible swing and tecnique and work ethic. I feel McGwire would have hit 500+ homeruns either way. I never really got the feeling while reading this the Canseco was trying to be malicious...just telling his story....true, untrue, or exaggerated.
