Deadspin
Well, that didn't take long: Just five hours after our post on writer Joe Lavin's early purchase of Jose Canseco's new book, which, according to Lavin, claims that Canseco introduced A-Rod to a steroid supplier, A-Rod has responded with characteristic stoicism.
A-Rod's reaction is no reaction. How Zen.
When first told Tuesday morning that Canseco had leveled accusations against him, Rodriguez asked what more Canseco had said than in previous accusations. Told that Canseco had written about introducing him to a known supplier of steroids, Rodriguez said, "I really have absolutely no reaction."
Lavin, who posted his findings on his blog, joelavin.com, also reported that Canseco accused A-Rod of pursuing Canseco's wife, the reason for Canseco's clear animosity toward the Yankees' third baseman. When Rodriguez was told about that, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "He said that in his book?", then said, "I have absolutely no comment."
It's a pity that, if Lavin's findings are true, A-Rod is about to get pilloried because of allegations from Jose Canseco. Though, to be fair, if we were a young up-and-coming star, the minute we saw an aged, shriveling Jose Canseco sauntering toward us in the locker room, we'd hightail it in the opposite. Fast.

Can these guys just move to Vermont together and let this "story" end?
Stone Cold Stunner!
She's a man, baby, yeah!
Manly she-male type, manly she-male type.
/no, no
Dude, Cheetara
The dryer goes on the right.
@ClueHeywood: A-Rod did his part, but came up just short, ending up in Toronto with what appeared to be a female bodybuilder.
Why would Canseco's wife go astray? That large head, those mesh shirts-- what more would a woman want?
When, however, asked about the new line of Fendi bags, they couldn't get A-Rod to stop commenting.
@Helmet Touch: You sir, are a liar.
@Carlton_Whitfield: Throw in the backne and the shrunken testicles, and he's a definite keeper.
What's that, honey? A-Rod's back in the fountain again? F*ck me. "A-Rod! Hey, A-Rod! Take that dude and get in your own fountain! I'm not warning you again."
Wait, is "A-Rod and Jose" a tag for the post or a caption for the picture?
This is what happens when things are leaked prior to the release date.

Canseco's wife must have a purty mouth.
This is like the time when playing a round with some corporate guys, Tom Watson referred to KPMG as KP "and" G--and Rich Beem didn't even correct him! Hilarious!
@MurrayHewitt: It's really more of a diamond cutter, if you want to get technical. Which I'll always gladly do when we're discussing pro wrestling.

HOSAY DO NOT LIKE aRAH
SO aRAH SAYS POO TO YOU
@muggsybogues:
RKO!
Eric Angevine, when told that A-Rod had no reaction to Canseco's allegations, said "Wow, I had not heard that. I have no reaction to that at all".
"He banged my wife but that isnt the reason Im trying to ruin his career, I swear. Why do I hear laughter? Stop it, stop it, I used to be Jose Canseco. I was a bash brother. I drive an Acura Integra. Im credible!"
Arod is jealous his wife got to wear the two-piece
Ripping on A-Rod for disappearing in the clutch, slapping at balls, and his taste for manly shemale types, is enough fun already.
Don't make me feel sympathetic towards him!
I'd like to inject her with HGH!
Too Soon?
"It's been several seconds since you asked me for my reaction to Canseco's claim. I'm not here to talk about the past."
Why is A-Rod snuggling with Junior Seau in a fountain?
I might even get past the whole "cavorting in a fountain with a muscular shemale" thing if his smile wasn't so damned gay.
Wow! that abscess on her ass looks exactly like a Yankee!
'Look at me, LOOK AT ME!!! I am touching a woman; I am secure with who I am.'
Take that, Jose.
There is no spoon, motherfucker.
Screw all y'all, she's a yes.
(And to be clear, I mean the wife, not A-rod).
@Chief Wahoo: That and im not sure if his awkward bend is meant to conceal a woody or his disgust for the female body.
@muggsybogues: If we are going to get technical, isn't it an Ace Crusher? The finishing move of Road Warrior Animal's brother Johnny Ace.
Someone tell A-Rod he's not at a 6th grade dance.
@BruschisBrewsky: Excellent point you have there - it does look as if he's trying to make the least amount of contact with her that he possibly can, doesn't it?
@LosOsosdeChicago: Looks like somebody beat you to it.
@the earl of weaver: hey now.... Cheetara was hot.
Wait... what?!
Man, could Conseco just go away. he's such a whore...I'd like to hebitch slap that mangina. Hey, she's in shape.
well, canseco hasnt been proven wrong yet, has he?
I think that from this couple, Fuck-you-gal is the one taking steroids. Look at the muscles in her torso, dude! A-Rod is in the back, hoping nobody can notice his gut.
@meltyman: Actually, he accused Bret Boone of confirming the use of steroids while he, Canseco, was on second base in a spring training game. It was proven that Boone was never playing second base in a spring training game where Canseco was a runner on second that spring.
Both of those chicks are kida cute. Not hot, just cute.
I find irony in the idea that Jose Canseco would write a book with the words "the Battle to Save Baseball" in the title. The Battle to Save Baseball. That's like Jenna Jameson writing a book about abstinence.
And if I hear about this f'in pool party one more time I'm gonna lose it. A pool party? Unless you're a 14-year-old girl trying to buy friends, or Hugh Hefner, then you have no business having a pool party.
