Bizarro World Canseco's

In my last post,I sent the message out to the blogosphere that I was In need of  some Canseco White Sox/Angels/Expos  cards .I got antsy and kept seeing them on ebay so I picked up a couple singles.These truly are the most bizarre Canseco cards I own.I'm not even sure If  Canseco got any AB's In  for the Expos or Angels.These are like ,from some alternate universe or something.I tend to forget that Canseco got kind of sucky towards the end of his career and In the process of sucking something fierce ,got moved around a bit.It's a shame,too, cuz all he needed was few homers more to reach 500.I gotta believe even that wouldn't have gotten him into the hall with all the animosity .I just love the cards though.They  remind me of  all those mid 80's Reggie Jackson cards .

I Kind Of Miss Manny..

Anybody else feel the same?I understand what he did,and at this point the only difference between him and 65% of the league Is that he got caught.I get that.He did wrong in the eyes of  baseball supremacy.Still, that doesn't negate the fun and  downright goofiness Manny brought to the game.The bathroom breaks,the infamous cut off, and the genuine fun Ramirez had while playing the game.It's funny because MLB will ostracize him to a certain extent,yet use his quirky clips In blooper reels to  draw laughs and enjoyment.In other words,get views.The guy was a a highlight reel waiting to happen,whether with the bat or his trademark antics.I'm not sure what growth hormone or testosterone builder Ramirez was caught using,but I'm sure It wasn't as strong as some of the stuff other guys used In the past.It didn't turn him into a dick and you never heard stories of Manny punching any cameramen.If Manny was guilty of anything,It was of  "..being Manny",and I kind of miss that  :(
