495...New Low For Ex Toronto Blue Jay Canseco

Jose Canseco, who hit 462 dingers in the bigs and has two rings, has hit a new low in his craving for attention.

As if a nice long major league career, including a year with Toronto, was not enough, since retirement Mr. Canseco has written a book, Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant 'Roids, Smash Hits & How Baseball Got Big, where he talks about doing steriods, lots and lots and lots of steriods, the kind that make you play baseball good.

His identical twin brother Ozzie also did steriods but the kind that make you play baseball bad which is why you never knew Mr. Canseco had a twin brother until reading this line.

I digress.


As if getting beaten down in almost every fight he's ever been in wasn't enough, he did fight Danny Partridge/Danny Bonaduce to a draw, Mr. Canseco is now set to box a competitive eater on July 24. That is right. A man who is so starved for the spotlight, the former boyfriend of Madonna and American League Most Valuable Player in 1988 is going to, according the The Sporting News, box a guy who eats chicken wings by the bucket for a living, five-time Wing Bowl champion Bill "El Wingador" Simmons in Damon Feldman's Celebrity Boxing 10.

It doesn't get any smaller than that.

Wait, it does.

Bumfights.
