Are Steroids Worth The Money?

In his latest video with the industry leading Steroid.com, Jose Canseco delves into
the argument “are steroids worth the risk for a pro contract?” His answers are
somewhat surprising.

Canseco explains how the game has changed, “Today if your caught using steroids your career is over” and not only as a pro but in the minors too. However, Canseco
still believes that a big name player would stand a chance and may get a free pass.

Jose goes onto explain the issue of personal choice and if the money is there and
it’s needed to support a family use could be worth the risk.

“The American way is capitalism and making money…money and finances take care of the family”

While the money could make the risk of being caught worthwhile, Canseco
emphasizes the issue of destroying your legacy. However, he also explains that a
legacy doesn’t pay the bills.

Adamant about telling young players not to use steroids, to work harder and let fate
take care of the rest, Jose tends to make some small exceptions. If you know one
more great year could pay off with a big check and the contract is guaranteed, the
risk may be worth it as far as he’s concerned. However, he continues to emphasize
personal choice.

Jose rounds out his latest video sharing his thoughts on Lance Armstrong. Needless
to say he feels sorry for him and doesn’t believe Lance deserves any of the fire
he’s getting. If there’s anyone who knows about a steroid destroyed career, it’s
undoubtedly Jose Canseco.
