"NEW YORK - Jose Canseco wants immunity, Congress demands testimony and major league baseball hopes to avoid detailed inquiries into steroid use by players.
Canseco asked Thursday for immunity if he's to testify fully before a congressional committee, but a spokesman for the lawmaker who will chair the proceeding offered no promises. Canseco is among seven players and four officials summoned to appear at the March 17 hearing of the House Government Reform Committee (news - web sites)."
Somehow I don't think that old Jose had any clue the firestorm would get this big and that he would get caught up in it in this fashion. Either way I am still more interested in Congress reprioritizing so that they can focus on other issues like healthcare, the environment or some other issue that affects more people than this.
