A whistle-blower whose admission to steroid use exposed a scandal that overshadowed his own remarkable 16-year major league career, and led to congressional hearings that cast a pall over America's greatest pastime - baseball.

    Jose Canseco and Mark Mcgwire were my heros growing up in the 80's. my first baseball game was the Oakland A's in the late 80's when I was like 6 years old. even though they both did steroids they still are my favorite players next to Rickey Henderson. they all made baseball very fun to watch.
  • Canseco SAVED BASEBALL! MY CHILDHOOD HERO, Made me his greatest fan. And, still I rock his Jersey to this day. Thank you Jose, for the memories brother. Much love from a true fan. 🙏👍🎉😉💪

    It is absurd that this only has a few thousand views. The quality and production are at a professional level. Excellent documentary, thank you. 👍

    Great interview. Love how Canseco doesn’t BS and doesn’t dance around the questions like all of his former teammates and former friends. While many will criticize him for being a whistleblower to sell his book, it is eye opening that many of our favorite players are just as guilty in taking steroids/PEDs, yet Jose acknowledges what he did and wants the others to take accountability.

    Never knew how humbled and honest was Jose Canseco, he deserves to be more famous for his achivements and values than a lot of other players, is still not late for that to happen ... Great, story. God Bless him.

    Jose deserves to be in the HOF! Go, Jose!

    Canseco was a great ballplayer and it's a disgrace what MLB has done to destroy him.
  • @webslinger48
    When I was 15 he was absolutely my idol and I never idolized anyone as much as I did when I was 15. It's complicated but still to this day there is a mystique to this man for me. I cannot shake it and I think I miss that time when I could have an idol and be ignorant of the warts.
  • Give Canseco his due,he helped fill stadiums.Drugs have been used in baseball since the1950s.Whether its amphetamines or steroids.He just had the courage to speak about it!Awesome document!!!!
  • Steroids or no steroids Jose Canseco has always been my favorite player of all time! He might have had his problems but so do I, so does everybody. As a ball player, as a slugger, a base stealer, a human being, I think he's great! Nobody could mash a baseball like Jose Canseco !!

    I wanted to be Jose when I was growing up. I was angry when he admitted steroid use but as the years went by, I think he might be the single most important person to ever play the game. His honesty changed it forever. He should be in the Hall of Fame for nothing other than being the man that shined a light on the ugly side of the game and setting it back on the right track. He's still my favorite athlete of all time.

    my condolences for the loss of your mum. I have so much respect to this man for the total honesty and feeling that he showed doing this documentary ✌️🇬🇧👍

    I happiest day of my childhood was when my parents drove me across Texas to see Jose play against the Rangers when he was with the Red Sox. I couldn't find a 33 Red Sox jersey (this was well before online shopping) so my mom bought me a plain Red Sox jersey and got 33 and Canseco embroidered on the back. During batting practice, Jose looked up and saw my jersey (I had my back to him for that reason) and he gave us a thumbs up. My mom took a picture on her Polaroid camera. I still have and cherish that snapshot. Now, as a 36 year old man, I remember that day like it was yesterday.

    Excellent Documentary professionally done and insightful.

    Jose Canseco was my Favorite Player the second I started watching Baseball.
  • When i was younger, i used to watch baseball and enjoyed it and remember the 90's baseball. This is a great documentary which shows that in any bu$ine$$ industry, the truth is more of an inconvenience than anything else. Jose Canseco is simply paying the price for exposing MLB corruption, but in his heart, he did what was right and what his father told him to do: "Do the right thing"
  • @miklom41
    I am pulling for Jose, still my favorite player of all time
  • @joeadd5911
    Take care Jose, you're a great player and an admirable human being. God bless you and your family friend.

    Canseco is the man!! I saw an interview with him here on U Tube and have been a serious fan since. Not only can the dude SMASH a baseball but is smart, funny, and honest. Canseco should be allowed in the Hall of Fame!!
  • @kentflournoy1132
    I was never a big fan of Canseco. I am now. His honesty rings true.
