Grew up with him, we worked out, hung out, had high school classes with him as well! Nothing bad to say here. Always got along, that being said. He would hit Home Runs in High School over the single family homes across the street, over the fence, before the juice days. Some of these home runs would have been considered long major league home runs. The real deal, a natural for sure. Of course, he speaks honest, and is straight up, just like most people that grew up in the 80"s YEP
i guess Im asking randomly but does anyone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account?? I was dumb lost my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
When the crowds have stopped cheering, when the fast girls and fast cars are gone, when you are alone with yourself and the money and mansions have gone, that's when you find out who your real friends are and who was just a user along for the ride. Best of luck Jose.
There are no friends per se only people you enjoy good times with. They can't help you. They did not force you to spend your money on hookers or fast cars or cocaine or other drugs. They were just there because he brought them for the ride. I am sure some of them told him to stop wasting his money and didn't pay attention. What can they do for him? Loan him another $50 million. He would waste them again and again. He is a better person now that he learned his purpose in life. To live a simple life.
Sometimes trouble finds you. I had a guy tried to start a fight with me, I’m 5’4 -140 pounds. I could not believe it, I had a gay guy shoved me for no reason- both incidents were at clubs. I’m tiny.. I was there just to dance..mean people out there!
Canseco is a known bullshitter, he's lied in court, he's lied on cheating, he lied in his book, his story about "handling" 5 bouncers is a lie. IDGAF how juiced he was, 3 bouncers working any "massive" nightclub will wrap you up and take you down even if they each weigh a buck 50 wet. I like listening to him bullshit though, he's like a funny story teller. Great person to have around a camp fire. But in the end it's a low point in Vlad TV, this is like putting Tim Donaghy on. Sure it's interesting to hear his shit, but it's still shit

Wow !! Joe Conseco living in a garage for 6 months !!!! He spent millions on his friends and family, and no one offered him a room , so he had to live in garage !!
Goes to show that people are shitty. You gotta take care of yourself and your family first, because there's no guarantee that others will help you in your hour of need.
Once you lose your usefulness to ppl, they often ignore you ..... (changed career from something very prestigious after burning-out, lost alot of fake friends/family while down, picked myself up into a great new career and never looked back. Now they want to be friends again but fuck them all, never forget. Those that stay for your down-times are worthy of your undying loyalty.)
Met Jose and his brother after the night club fight incident, reporting to probation. Very nice and polite. Seems like a good dude in public. Hope he is doing well.
It's sad. As a kid. He was one of my baseball heros. Got his autograph when I was 10. One of the bash brothers. It's so sad. Damn it man. I hope the next 20 years show you some love Jose

@@Doobie603 True, but he achieved the alpha game of the .001%. Not "always claim they are victims" and I wonder if he would trade the memories for the mediocre. Sad fact is that he is still doing better than most men.
Fuck that. This dude blew his money on Coke and getting out of jail while beating women and juicin.. No sympathy for people like Canseco,Tyson or any.of the other trash athletes that were shown copius amounts of love during their career..
When i was in elementary, this guy was one of the golden boys of the MLB, good looking, had money, good stats, the boys wanted his trading cards and rookie card.
Don't know how much longer people will learn that "only bad things happen after sun down". Something about the darkness of night that unleashes the worst side of people. Stay home and enjoy good old fashion family, friends or love ones company and avoid going out at night even to get ice cream.
I have to agree with you. The saying that "the freaks come out at night" has plenty of truth to it. It's been my observation that humans are on some different type of sh*t versus the daytime hours.
I would somewhat disagree with this only because I used to work nights in a bad neighborhood. During the day everyone is out and about trying to get money for their next fix and at night everybody is at home at that point doing their thing or whatever so the nights were actually very calm. But I do agree that if you do run into someone at night it's probably not going to be a great encounter.
I read his book when it came out years ago and I seemed to be the ONLY person who believe every word and ALL his accusations of roid use by other players. I never understood how people can be so NAIVE! At least HALF of MLB was on roids... and quite frankly, it SAVED the game of baseball.
Through all of his craziness and “snitching”, I’ll always have love for Canseco. Him and Mattingly were by far my 2 favorite baseball players when I was a kid.
I remember my brother in law knowing Jose and his house was half way built in Miami but his basketball court in his backyard was built and we was all playing basketball with Canseco..he was a good dude
Try coming off an uncut fentanyl habit cold turkey.... In county lock up for a month. As the only skinny white guy. I didn't eat for 23 days. Then get arrested for buying dope literally the day your released and back in local jail by night fall. Or coming off a fent habit.... In a car. In -11 January weather in Detroit. With no money to turn your car on for heat.
Jose canseco is one of my all time favorite ball players. Ive read the book, it was great. He saved alot of years/lives by coming out and helping move baseball steroid testing policies etc.. he in my eyes is like someone to be praised not banned. Thanks Jose for being a solid dude and for the things youve accomplished.
Lifelong Oakland A's fan here. I remember seeing Jose playing at the coliseum. He was always very friendly and would stop for autographs. Seemed like a really solid guy. Hope he fixes his situation.
Weird, because I remember in 1987 I went to an angels vs a's game. I bought a ball and stood in line after the game to get his autograph. I got close when I realized he was charging $20 for an autograph. I walked away and lost all respect for him.
If you can spend 55 million in your lifetime than you are living way above your means buying all kinds of shit that holds no value. With 55 million you should be set for a couple generations in your family.
Jesus Christ paid for our sins ,dying on the cross...he is the saviour. I don't joke about this ,one day we die, get to know him.The spending too much is accurate, even the extra 10 to 15% a year....few years down the road plus interest your thousands in debt.Everyone may know this,but its easy to ignore.
I remember reading an article in the local paper in the bay area that one of the janitors for the Oakland A's was cleaning out the lockers and found a $350,000 pay-check that somehow fell behind his locker and Jose didn't even know it was missing. Now that's when you know you're making too much money!
Anything can happen to anyone. What happened to Jose could happen to anyone, and being put in jail doesn't necessarily mean that you are a criminal or a bad person. God Bless you, Jose!!
I once watched Jose hit a towering home run into the bleachers. I honestly wish him well. Just keep your head up and dont worry about what other people say. Your a hero in my book, humble and honest.
Wealth is about defense, not offense. Many people make big dough, but are hyperconsumers and have nothing. Many people make little, but achieve great wealth
No actually achieving wealth is all about offense. That's why it's called Capitalism ; you capitalize on other's misfortunes. Also no, many people don't achieve great wealth. Listen to @Jeffrey D if you want to end like Jose
@@jonathandeegan9044 Speak for yourself. Offense usually requires spending minutes of your life doing crap. I spend my minutes doing fun stuff . I never inherited a penny. I drove a semi for 12 years and retired at 32, fairly wealthy, yes, by playing defense and investing. Haven't worked in 16 years, traveled to/lived in 94 countries. . Listen to @Jonathan Deegan if you want to be a bitch to money, and chase paper like a pathetic simp. I plow teenagers, sleep till noon, gamble, travel, drink, play bocce, lift weights, run marathons, read, shop, volunteer, did I mention plowing teenagers on the regular? Listen to me if you want financial independence fast and (easier) . My instagram is _fekman What is your Insta/FB? Let's compare lifestyles for a minute (crickets).......see how all that offense is working out for you, lol
I’m not much of a baseball fan but I do remember him and it’s soo refreshing to see a sports superstar in an interview where he’s just being “a person”. He seems to be down to earth and humble and didn’t sidestep any questions. It was a very interesting interview, well done.
you kinda get humbled when you've fallen from the mountain top. not kicking him while he's down, just an observation and a reflection from my own (smaller in comparison) life experiences.
There are some people you could give them a dollar, come back a year later and they've turned it into $1.25. Others, give them $10,000, come back a year later and the $10,000 is gone, plus they owe another $5k.
Both he and his twin brother Ozzie always had that blinking and twitching going on. His brother played ball too, but was no where near as good as Jose.

@@jmarsh2314 he said he invested in properties that went bad. You hear of the housing crash in 08? No such thing as a sure thing. I have known people that thought they were being wise and prudent but sill lost almost everything. It's easy to talk about spending someones else's money.
40% goes to taxes, then 50% of your 40% goes to divorce (ex-wife, kids, lawyers and court) then throw In some bad Investments and the stock market crash and It goes pretty quickly If you are not on top of things.
doesn't matter how much money you have, you will lose it all without assets that pay for a multi million dollar lifestyle, you can never maintain a high million dollar lifestyle if your money isnt working for you, otherwise you will work until you die
I mean, other than taxes, it's all about choices, right? He was probably a dick to his wife, cheated on her, etc., that makes her bitter, more inclined to try to roast him in court and he's arrogant, he wants to fight everything, so he ends up spending ten times the amount of money a normal person would and the lawyers aren't complaining. Meanwhile, he makes dumbass investments, looks for big returns, tries to constantly beat the market, doubles down on losses because he KNOWS he gonna win and then loses $11 million because he didn't do boring, he didn't balance his portfolio, he could easily and safely earn $500K/year on a $10 million balance, but no...and it all goes down the drain. All of it. I don't know...everyone knows that if you drive your car at 100 mph everyday all day and never change the oil, the engine's gonna blow. But guys like this...they don't seem to understand that until their Lambo dies out on the I-40 in Arizona in 120 degree heat with no cell phone coverage and no tow truck in sight.
Did you listen to the 6 minute and 33 second interview, he told us. It makes sense! 11M just in the market, and that was after tax money... So, figure 40% in taxes of 55M and he's down to 33M - 11M is down to 22M. That's more than enough money for ten lifetimes, but go figure you gotta pay agent fees which are through the roof, lawyers and retainer fees, fines/restitution, his house was probably 5M'ish with taxes, cars (ferarri's and lambo's) and like he said, friends family (uncles and shit he probably never knew he had) and anything else. It doesn't last long!!
i lived in my car for 18 month!!!! Funny part, i loves most of it because i had no one above or to the sides of me!!!! i got to the point in my life, starting in 2015, that i saw 👀 people for who they REALLY are and government entities for what they REALLY stood for, ton this day, i am a PROUD loner!!!!

If you’re playing professionally baseball full time, you don’t have the time to learn and manage your money. You can’t just put it into a savings account. Back then there was no internet so it was way harder to learn things or read about ex broke pro players. A lot players never talked about money or admitted they mishandled their money so you were basically on your own. There was no smart phones so it wasn’t like you could clearly and quickly see your money situation. Also, back then there was a lot of horrendous shitty financial advisors and you wouldn’t know they hosed you until it was too late.
@@TheYoungwet correct. People hating on him are retarded. If you’re playing pro baseball you really don’t have down time to focus on your investments and check your financial advisor on what’s going on.
He didn't come clean they were already talking about it and he thought he would jump on it and try to get paid as some type of savior to baseball. He snitched on everyone and gave names cause his career was done
Poverty is the worst especially ,when all the bad decisions you made were when you had the most money. When people are desperate that's when they throw their money at anything.
It looks like the drugs caused him to have a neurological condition called Tardive Dyskinesia. He has a lot of facial ticks and spasms that he never had before.
An absolute beast at the plate. I never get tired of watching his moon shots on video. Juice or no juice, who cares. He was pure electricy. Nobody before or after,
Whats It like now for these kids getting millions of dollars just to sign and never step on a field and then fail when they hit the pro field??? Sports is a joke at the moment!!!
I've known this man for 30 years he's been a friend of mine we play adult softball together 50 and over traveling tournament team. he's one of the best people and the most humble person I've ever met he's exactly the same now as he was when he was a millionaire and that's the truth to all the haters out there
I'm single, I live in my house but the garage is starting to come into the house (motorcycles & tools). Mostly only sleep in the house, spend much time in the garage.
Jose, all I can remember growing up is your name and what a larger than life person you were. Top Professional athlete and absolutely gorgeous to boot. You still are that person. Regardless how the system has been treating you, stand tall. You are a warrior. All things come full circle. I know this well as I have lost everything myself. As a nurse, I noticed your hard blinking and would wish you to seek the consult of a neurologist just to ensure your continued good health. Always a fan Colleen
@GrandMaster Bushido Brown Unfortunately you may be right. Even with prenuptial agreements, I just can’t see guaranteeing someone a certain amount of money/property just for marrying you. I also do not think alimony should be so easily given. Especially the damn excuse that “I need to maintain the lifestyle I had within the marriage.” Naw... get a fucking job sis. I can see it if they’re married like 10+ years and the woman gave up a career or schooling to raise his kids... An agreed upon amount with an expiration date for certain situations makes some sense. However, I see guys pay like half of their salary to alimony and child support after like 2 years of marriage and it being given until the kid is like 18!! Wtf is that!? That shit is what keeps people in miserable marriages. That’s probably also why men have a higher suicide rate and die younger than women. K I’m done ranting lol
i remember him being the big thing... my friends all wanted his autograph. we were like 11, every kid that asked him the reply was, '$20' to an 11 year old kid. and this was back in the 80s when $20 bucks was not chump change

- "every kid that asked him the reply was, '$20' to an 11 year old kid" I'm a firm supporter of capitalism. If you have something of value, why would you give it away? There is nothing wrong with charging people money for something you have, that they want.
I don't care what anybody says, I've always been a fan of Jose Canseco and still am. That guy ignited one of the most exciting eras ever in baseball and he was a total phenom when he came into the league. Everyone in the baseball world was enthralled with this guy.
He couldn't throw accurately, was a terrible outfielder, had a crappy on base percentage, never hit for average, was a mediocre base runner, struck out every other at bat. He hit home runs. That was it. He stunk.

Never heard that before. Thats good.

For all of the notoriety around Jose, he actually seems like a cool dude, or atleast has become one.
You believe the media?
He's k now that he's older in Miami he use wear a shirt don't bother me lol
@@kellyfontes7757 Not as a rule.
He is full of shit. His whe life has been based on lies. Not really surprising that his life has ended this way.
I'll second that...he seems like he's down to earth
He's as honest about his life and baseball as Barkley is with his and basketball. I love honesty! Two guys I'd love to hang out with!
'For sure!
Lifelong Oakland A's fan here. I remember seeing Jose playing at the coliseum. He was always very friendly and would stop for autographs. Seemed like a really solid guy. Hope he fixes his situation.
Weird, because I remember in 1987 I went to an angels vs a's game. I bought a ball and stood in line after the game to get his autograph. I got close when I realized he was charging $20 for an autograph. I walked away and lost all respect for him.
It doesn’t matter how much u make it matters how much you spend
True! Why would you call yourself Jesus Christ?!?!
If you can spend 55 million in your lifetime than you are living way above your means buying all kinds of shit that holds no value. With 55 million you should be set for a couple generations in your family.
@@wfail8656 he is jesus christ 🤷♂️
"And to the Gentiles, it was said 'spend less than you earn'" - Ephesians 3:12
Jesus Christ paid for our sins ,dying on the cross...he is the saviour. I don't joke about this ,one day we die, get to know him.The spending too much is accurate, even the extra 10 to 15% a year....few years down the road plus interest your thousands in debt.Everyone may know this,but its easy to ignore.
I remember reading an article in the local paper in the bay area that one of the janitors for the Oakland A's was cleaning out the lockers and found a $350,000 pay-check that somehow fell behind his locker and Jose didn't even know it was missing. Now that's when you know you're making too much money!
There's a story of Rickey Henderson framing a 1M check. Then a year later the A's accounting people had to go tell him to cash it lol!
Wow 😳
@@seano79 Haha! Oh ya ..... hate when that happens....
Wow when that kind of money is pennies you know you are making lots of money
Hopefully by now MLB requires players to enroll in direct deposit.

Great comment
Very underrated comment! 😆😄😂👏
Great guy, great interview. Not often you find guys this honest or informative about such a business. Love hearing about the old A's teams.
Anything can happen to anyone. What happened to Jose could happen to anyone, and being put in jail doesn't necessarily mean that you are a criminal or a bad person. God Bless you, Jose!!
And when the bad times hit..friends will leave your ass quick ...if your lucky 2 or 3 real friends in a life time..
I once watched Jose hit a towering home run into the bleachers. I honestly wish him well. Just keep your head up and dont worry about what other people say. Your a hero in my book, humble and honest.

Wealth is about defense, not offense. Many people make big dough, but are hyperconsumers and have nothing. Many people make little, but achieve great wealth
Moral of the story is - there are twice as many people
@@LeksoSai в смысле?
Thanks Jeff for that enlightening comment.
No actually achieving wealth is all about offense. That's why it's called Capitalism ; you capitalize on other's misfortunes. Also no, many people don't achieve great wealth. Listen to @Jeffrey D if you want to end like Jose
@@jonathandeegan9044 Speak for yourself. Offense usually requires spending minutes of your life doing crap. I spend my minutes doing fun stuff

I’m not much of a baseball fan but I do remember him and it’s soo refreshing to see a sports superstar in an interview where he’s just being “a person”. He seems to be down to earth and humble and didn’t sidestep any questions. It was a very interesting interview, well done.
i noticed the same thing. seems honest.
you kinda get humbled when you've fallen from the mountain top. not kicking him while he's down, just an observation and a reflection from my own (smaller in comparison) life experiences.
Sounds like a great guy who got screwed by everyone.
Poor misunderstood nice guy.
Met him on the street in NYC he was walking to do Howard Stern show to promote his book, he even took a picture really nice guy.
I am glad he was nice to you.
He seems nice.
But he plays the victim.
I just don't see the point of listening to anything else he has to say.
There are some people you could give them a dollar, come back a year later and they've turned it into $1.25. Others, give them $10,000, come back a year later and the $10,000 is gone, plus they owe another $5k.

This is sad to hear that Jose Canseco had only $20 dollars in his pocket and living in a Garage.
And millions in equity and value of his name, or brand of his career etc, it’s not like average joe with 20$ in his pocket, he can bounce back

Both he and his twin brother Ozzie always had that blinking and twitching going on. His brother played ball too, but was no where near as good as Jose.

He should have bought a few houses and rented them out. Then once he went broke he would have some place to go. I know hindsight is 20/20...
Hindsight is 2020
A couple apartments too. Atleast you’d have a thousands coming in every month. It might not be millions but you can still live a decent life
@@jmarsh2314 he said he invested in properties that went bad. You hear of the housing crash in 08? No such thing as a sure thing. I have known people that thought they were being wise and prudent but sill lost almost everything. It's easy to talk about spending someones else's money.
he owned a few houses. there wasnt exactly a app for renting your multimillion dollar mansion back then
@@soulfly3438 I agree with you statement but people rented, homes, planes and dated via agencies and classified ads way back in the days.

@@Siriusfishing718 snitch ?? He did baseball a favor...now if we can get Pete Rose in the HOF
@@terryduncan5718 that’s a fact. Jose told straight facts.
Everyone has stories, just by living. I got a shitload of interesting stories, & I didn't lose 55 mil. You sound star-struck.
Lot of lies more like it
How you lose that much money, I'll never know. At least he's humble now.
40% goes to taxes, then 50% of your 40% goes to divorce (ex-wife, kids, lawyers and court) then throw In some bad Investments and the stock market crash and It goes pretty quickly If you are not on top of things.
doesn't matter how much money you have, you will lose it all without assets that pay for a multi million dollar lifestyle, you can never maintain a high million dollar lifestyle if your money isnt working for you, otherwise you will work until you die
He's humble because losing that much money and your life going from I can do anything to I can't do nothing will make your ass eat some humble pie.
I mean, other than taxes, it's all about choices, right?
He was probably a dick to his wife, cheated on her, etc., that makes her bitter, more inclined to try to roast him in court and he's arrogant, he wants to fight everything, so he ends up spending ten times the amount of money a normal person would and the lawyers aren't complaining. Meanwhile, he makes dumbass investments, looks for big returns, tries to constantly beat the market, doubles down on losses because he KNOWS he gonna win and then loses $11 million because he didn't do boring, he didn't balance his portfolio, he could easily and safely earn $500K/year on a $10 million balance, but no...and it all goes down the drain. All of it.
I don't know...everyone knows that if you drive your car at 100 mph everyday all day and never change the oil, the engine's gonna blow. But guys like this...they don't seem to understand that until their Lambo dies out on the I-40 in Arizona in 120 degree heat with no cell phone coverage and no tow truck in sight.
Did you listen to the 6 minute and 33 second interview, he told us. It makes sense! 11M just in the market, and that was after tax money... So, figure 40% in taxes of 55M and he's down to 33M - 11M is down to 22M. That's more than enough money for ten lifetimes, but go figure you gotta pay agent fees which are through the roof, lawyers and retainer fees, fines/restitution, his house was probably 5M'ish with taxes, cars (ferarri's and lambo's) and like he said, friends family (uncles and shit he probably never knew he had) and anything else. It doesn't last long!!
He’s no longer living in a van down by the river. Only that motivational speaker is still
God...I MISS CHRIS FARLEY..One of the funniest guys to ever live
nice!!
Very very very interesting. I'll be watching the whole interview tomorrow. Thanks for putting this up

This is why saving and investing money when you're wealthy is so important
Best to start saving BEFORE the lump sum.
Get ready for the lump sum
@@tachometer-flac also keep in mind that people make up stuff in the comments like Myspace had stock. Myspace was never a publicly traded company. You could say Myspace stock was News Corp stock when they owned it. Stop making stuff up in 2021 when you can easily Google this stuff
He said he invested money theres no guarantee when investing either everyone is not Warren Buffett smh
If you’re playing professionally baseball full time, you don’t have the time to learn and manage your money. You can’t just put it into a savings account. Back then there was no internet so it was way harder to learn things or read about ex broke pro players. A lot players never talked about money or admitted they mishandled their money so you were basically on your own. There was no smart phones so it wasn’t like you could clearly and quickly see your money situation. Also, back then there was a lot of horrendous shitty financial advisors and you wouldn’t know they hosed you until it was too late.
@@TheYoungwet correct. People hating on him are retarded. If you’re playing pro baseball you really don’t have down time to focus on your investments and check your financial advisor on what’s going on.

i like canseco. he's the only person from mlb who came clean about roids...
Back then roid was legal in MLB.
He didn't come clean they were already talking about it and he thought he would jump on it and try to get paid as some type of savior to baseball. He snitched on everyone and gave names cause his career was done
His wife was using steroids as well. Sad story.

Jose, you can stay in my garage any time.
That way when someone starts something in my yard, I open up the garage and unleash the beast.
Interesting flow lately from vlad
Jose has always been a cool guy.
I remember being a kid in the early 80s and idolized "The Bash Brothers"
The cranium home run is still Jose’s crowning achievement in MLB.
I remember that one
He was one of my favorite ball players in grade school.
It looks like the drugs caused him to have a neurological condition called Tardive Dyskinesia. He has a lot of facial ticks and spasms that he never had before.
I definitely noticed that
He’s had those as long as I can remember.
@@forwardobserver2048 ok. I didn’t know
He’s always blinked like that
He always had ticks back in the day, I remember he used to tick at bats.
He now plays slo-pitch senior softball and is flown everywhere to play. The owners of the team have many ex MLB players on their teams.
And any one of them can kick YOUR ass in about 2 1/2 seconds. Don't forget that part, Never Was.
Poor guy. Looks like he’s had some issues. I have had some myself and can relate
Some issues?? That's an understatement.
Poor what? Happens to ALL illiterate/uneducated people who receive fame and money and are not prepared to handle it, sportsmen and artists.......
An absolute beast at the plate. I never get tired of watching his moon shots on video. Juice or no juice, who cares. He was pure electricy. Nobody before or after,
He was a helluva BBall players.. powerful. We all hit our low points in life .but you can never quit. Much respect sir.
Look at Cansecos arms and shoulder muscles , who in their right mind would wanna tackle him . Only a damn fool .
A drunk fool 😂
Beast
He got knocked by billy football in the first round.
Big doesn’t mean tough....most big guys can’t take a punch bc they’ve never been challenged their whole life.
@Kingdom of the Son of God - Him as well
I respect him he is the one that came clean first
he had no choice so he rated on players
Most people can’t handle being rich and famous, it usually ends bad.
What happens when you get money as an athlete or entertainer is that all kinds of vampires become your friends to see what they can get out of it.
Whats It like now for these kids getting millions of dollars just to sign and never step on a field and then fail when they hit the pro field??? Sports is a joke at the moment!!!
I've known this man for 30 years he's been a friend of mine we play adult softball together 50 and over traveling tournament team. he's one of the best people and the most humble person I've ever met he's exactly the same now as he was when he was a millionaire and that's the truth to all the haters out there
Canseco was one of my baseball heros in the 80s dog.
Yea dog
Smash bros ...him and mark McGwire
Jose recently made 1 million taking a dive at Rough and Rowdy so he's back on top!
If he made 55 million and fucked that up
I heard he spent already at the event
Typical story of WE LOVE YOU WHEN YOUR GIVING US SOMETHING, but forget you when you need us! Love you Jose! Blessings to you brother!!!
I’m living in my garage and l live in a new home 🏡. The married men can relate 🤨
Lol boys bring your xbox's upstairs and try to get your wife into COD. See how that goes.
I'm single, I live in my house but the garage is starting to come into the house (motorcycles & tools). Mostly only sleep in the house, spend much time in the garage.
I don't know if its because this guy was an idol of mine as a kid or what but this interview is one of the best
Real Deal
this man was great on the field!!!
Especially when the fly ball bounced off his head for a home run!
Wow i dont even watch baseball but i saw this dude destroy the home run derby one year and i was impressed nobody can hit like that
Money: hey big boy want a piece of this!
Canseco: hold my beer! Lol just trying to stay on topic here! Cheers!
Amazing how one thing can snowball into a career-ending life-altering situation .AN no FRIENDS! AN what's with the constant blinking . Drugs are bad !
Jose, all I can remember growing up is your name and what a larger than life person you were. Top Professional athlete and absolutely gorgeous to boot. You still are that person. Regardless how the system has been treating you, stand tall. You are a warrior. All things come full circle. I know this well as I have lost everything myself.
As a nurse, I noticed your hard blinking and would wish you to seek the consult of a neurologist just to ensure your continued good health.
Always a fan

He did the blinking years ago,don't know why
How do you spend that much in a lifetime, let alone how quickly he did. Why tf are women allowed to divorce men and take so much?? So fucked up!
@GrandMaster Bushido Brown Unfortunately you may be right. Even with prenuptial agreements, I just can’t see guaranteeing someone a certain amount of money/property just for marrying you. I also do not think alimony should be so easily given. Especially the damn excuse that “I need to maintain the lifestyle I had within the marriage.” Naw... get a fucking job sis. I can see it if they’re married like 10+ years and the woman gave up a career or schooling to raise his kids... An agreed upon amount with an expiration date for certain situations makes some sense. However, I see guys pay like half of their salary to alimony and child support after like 2 years of marriage and it being given until the kid is like 18!! Wtf is that!? That shit is what keeps people in miserable marriages. That’s probably also why men have a higher suicide rate and die younger than women. K I’m done ranting lol

*It isn't. The real moral of the story is never save hoes*
I've met Jose twice, he wasn't the most endearing person either time.
He hit home runs but other than that was a sub par major leaguer.
He couldn't throw accurately, was a terrible outfielder, had a crappy on base percentage, never hit for average, was a mediocre base runner, struck out every other at bat. He hit home runs. That was it. He stunk.
