Did Mike Wallace say that more on the Canseco book was going to be broadcast this Wednesdy? I hope so. Many things may develop in 3 days.

Yes, that's what pruneface said.

Q: How do you know when Jose Canseco is lying?
A: His lips are moving.

Seriously, I laughed out loud when, right after Mike Wallace read from his book, Canseco defined "often" as "probably twice."

One thing is certain. Canseco would say or write anything to sell a book. Anything. Truth matters not a bit.

Well if Canseco isn't sued for libel, perhaps he really is telling the truth. Talk is cheap, if McGwire really says it isn't true, let's see the libel suit, what is he afraid of?

Some people don't give a sh*t what a POS like Canseco has to say.

Not everyone seeks to make a lawyer wealthy at the drop of a hat.

So it's ok for Canseco to make a ton of money writing a book of lies, and defaming other's character if indeed the allegations aren't true?

"It's a free country." Heaven knows lots of people make money selling lies.

If McGwire cares neither about what Canseco says nor about what we might believe -- at least, not enough to take time out of what seems to be a quiet, enjoyable retirement in near seclusion away from the public eye -- good for him.
