Canseco speaking on Ortiz...didn't take long

I wonder which HoFer he's talking about. Anyone recent? Could Rickey Henderson be the guy? I've never really even thought about him, you would think most HoFers in now would mostly have played before that era.

1.He was a longtime teammate of Jose.

2.He did play in the 70's, 80's, 90's, and 00's.

3. When I typed Rickey Henderson into Google, it's auto complete suggestion added steroids. I think everyone thinks he had some sort of help and is checking up on it.

It has to be him.

I just looked at the list of HOF members for the last 10 years. The only guys that possibly could have are Tony Gwynn and Cal Ripken, Jr. I would say hell no to both.

Steroids existed in that area, but since no one did it everyone didn't feel the pressure of "having to keep up". It wouldn't surprise me if Rickey was juicing. That blend of speed and power was crazy. Him and Dykstra were the poster-boys for roids...I just think during the 80's it was cooler to be in a club hitting some nose candy rather than a gym with the juice.

makes me wonder if bo jackson ever tried it or was he just a freak that only comes around every 50 years.

Jim Thome??

Hmmm yeah I could see Thome being a roider. I really hope not cause he seems like a good guy but I've been burned down that road before. Hopefully he's clean but I guess we'll find out if that list ever gets released.
