Canseco Admits
Jose Canseco is a former Major League Baseball player who used steroids. In fact, he was the first one to ever use them in the major leagues. He says that steroids made him a better baseball player without doubt. He also says that if he could go back and have the choice of taking them again, he would take them. According to him, steroids can also make you healthier in some ways. They can help cure certain diseases.
Jose Canseco was one of the greatest baseball players in the 80's and 90's. Clearly he was better than a lot of other baseball players because of steroids. We will never know if other players could have been as good as him if everyone took steroids though. That is why I think that steroids should be illegal. Barry Bonds, the home run record holder, has been tested positive for steroids. The world now has to know that the home run record holder cheated to get his record.

Did you read the entire book or just a part of it. Mention the title early in the response so I understand what you are critiquing.
