| Hey, my name is Dan. I'm from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I've been A big Jose Canseco fan since 1986 when he came into the league. I've followed his career, and it was a treat to see him in person when he came to Toronto. I've went to a lot of game here in Toronto, and the best moment was seeing Jose hit his first homerun as a Blue jay in 1998. the feeling was amazing, I had a big smile on my face for days. My ultimate collectible was getting a 1986 rookie uniform of Jose Canseco and to actually talk to Jose about the jersey. It was the best to talk to Jose, he was the nicest guy. Here is a photo of me and the Canseco Rookie uniform. Thanks Jose for making my dream come true, to talk to you and to have your rookie uniform. Also I would like to thank Jim, for making all of this possible. |

| I have been a Canseco fan since I was 7 years old. I remember how I became a fan. He was the first player I ever saw hit a home run. I soon realized that other players hit homeruns, but none like Jose. This player had something no others had, he had presence. I am now 25 years old and am more a fan now than I have ever been. I recently added a member to my family by way of a baby girl named Anna born last November. I will raise her right, as a Canseco fan. I have never met Jose, but that is a dream of mine. I have collected over 1500 different cards of Jose over the years. I have over thirty game used auto cards and almost as many game used cards. I have an autographed bat and an autographed game used bat courtesy of Jose Canseco.com. I have several other autos and various other Canseco collectibles. I have been a Canseco fan over a third of my life, and I don't see any changes any time soon. No matter what he does, I will always support him. |

| Dear Jose, I have been a fan of yours since I was old enough to follow the game of baseball. I would come out to Cleveland Stadium and then Jacobs Field everytime you would come to town to watch you play. When your book came out people trashed you and even called you a liar. I didn't rush to judgement because, after all, you claimed to have first hand knowledge. Today Rafael Palmiero has been given a 10-game suspension for violating MLB's testing policy. Further evidence that you know what you are talking about. Hopefully someday, some of the members of the national media will get off your back. I enjoyed your book by the way. Mike Cleveland, OH |

| Jose I have been a fan since I was 11 years old. I wanted to be like you in many respects on and off the field. It hurts me to know that you did steriods but I respect your decision why. I thought you lied about the accusations on other ball players and thought you broke a code. But Baseball broke the code first. And after today seeing what Raffy has done being tested and found guilty of steriods. I apologize. I hope your life straightens out because of this and Baseball looks at you really trying to clean up the sport. I hope one day to meet you. To meet a hero of mine would really make my day. Again I apologize for not believing in you speaking of the truth and for the abuse you've recieved of late because telling the truth. Manny |

| Jose, Dude just like I have been telling folks I have believed you from the start. People better get behind you and view you as the savior of the game. Time will tell Jose but I truly believe you will go down in history as not only a great player but a player whose honesty put you above all else. I want to thank you for keeping my son Daryl from having to make the choice of using steroids. He is great high school baseball player. I don't think people fully understand that you have given so much to the game that you truly don't need it to give back to you. Your sacrafice goes unnoticed now but down the line folks like myself will pay tribute to you and our numbers will grow. So again thank you so much for just being you. Oh yeah Palmero got caught today so I guess people will start taking what you wrote about to heart. I miss seeing you patrol the outfield in Oaktown. Your friend, Ricardo |

| I have been a loyal Jose fan through it all. The man is a great homerun hitter and came out with the truth about steriods. That just shows what type of man he is. The way the system puts pressure on a man to be the best. But I have followed Jose since the Oakland days. He is the original bash brother and probably could still hit a towering home run. I just wanted to say that Jose is still the man and he will be missed from the game. Jeff QM1(SW) United States Navy |

| Jose, Just finished reading your book! Mate, all I can say is "You are a true champion" I really couldn't put the book down once I started reading it thanks for giving us an insight into what it was like to be a great MLB player. I bet Bondsy or McGwire could never write a book like yours, life is full of people who always hide in the shadows of the truth. I refer to those types of people as FAKES. People would respect them more if they told the truth. I just rang my bro and told him I finished reading your book cause he can't wait to read it, he played in the Marlins and Mariners system for 10 years and made the 40 Man roster Mariners before breaking his arm and they said "See ya Later, Alligator" But I said to him the other day that if he juiced up it may have been a different story and he replied "You know what I hate to admit it but I think you're right." I'll be making sure my son reads your book as well, he's currently 2 years old so it'll be a few years before he reads it. When he gets older he'll have great expectations to live up to his Dads and Uncles reputation on the baseball field. Good on ya mate great book! Im off to surf ebay to see what I can find which is autographed by yourself! Damo Sydney Australia |

| Hey this is a great site for the canseco fan. Good work guys. Anyway i just wanted to express my fanatical life that Jose has inspired. He is by far the most powerful hitter ever to pick up a bat, just to watch him swing is impressive, such speed and authority. Hes awesome. Hes inspired me and captivated me on and off the field with his controversial life. But no matter what he does ill be his fan forever. Missing over 500 games and still hitting 462 homeruns who could say that he wouldnt pass Aaron. No doubt Jose Canseco is the greatest power hitter ever. |

| Jose, My wife and I have gotten a kick out of your Surreal Life appearance. Your ability to laugh at yourself, and to rise above the rude behavior of others (booksigning episode), is admirable. ...You might get a kick out of an editorial cartoon I did when your book came out. Best regards, Jim Editorial Cartoonist |

| To One of My Heros Jose.... It saddens me greatly to see all of these people trying to deny the truth and blame you for everything. You and the rest of us know the truth. I am a 33 yr old former college athlete from Minnesota. I suffer from severe back problems and have had many surgeries. I may be in a pinch but I always loved living my dreams of baseball thru watching you and a few others play ball. From one big dude to another... chin upm be proud, and remember. There are more of us that love ya man. God Bless you! your pal from Albert inMinnesota |

| Jose; I want to first say I am a fan. A fan of Jose Canseco and a fan of baseball. I believe as a professional and the owner of a company that if you do not give 100% every day you fail as a person, I have no problem with what you or others did to be the best in your sport to help your team. I also believe your book tells the real story the story of how baseball will use you then throw you away. I wish the baseball writers would have the balls to elect a man who deserves to be in the Hall of Fame, but I doubt it. Good luck in life Christopher |

| first of all i will admit i was upset and dissapointed when the book came out, but after hearing what transpired on 790 am the ticket with dan lebatard and jim leriytz, i understood a little more . i am 27 yrs old now i have been a fan since 1986, no joke no bullcrap. i saw the first episode on the sureal life and i was happy to see your attitude and demenor with the book signing.personally i dont think you are an idiot or a cro magnon man like bronson pinchot said you were.what i am saying is today you gained back a loyal fan. i do think that someday you will be in the hall of fame were you should be considering you the first member of the 40/40 club. i hope you actually do get a chance to read this . brian miami,fl |

| You go Canseco! McGwire....strike Palmerio...strike I always believed you. Thanks for telling the truth, Greg |

| Thanks Jose |
|
| Jose, I would just like to thank you for single handedly saving baseball. Mcguire and Sosa are not heroes but fake liars. Without all of your accusations we would have never seen Palmiero get busted. I beleive every player you say took steroids because it is very obvious, especially now. I just hope the Hall of Fame voters can open there eyes to this mess by making difinitive rules what are considered cheating. THERE IS NO DOUBT what Palmiero did was a lot worse than what Pete Rose did as a manager. Pete didnt cheat the game, he cheated himself. Raffy has done both. I also believe Curt Schilling probably took them too by watching him at the court hearing last year. It was so obvious to me that everyone in that room used or was still using steroids.Thanks for saving baseball. Now maybe we can work on the hall of fame. Because you belong in over a lot of these other guys from my generation, especially corked Sosa, why would he still take steroids now? Palmiero, and finally Mcguire who single handedly ruined his legacy by not answering questions when hes not even gonna get tested. Thanks Jose Canseco, Your biggest fan - Ben |
