Jose Canseco Explains Gravity

Not sure if this is baseball related, but is sure is awesome :-)

Jose Canseco ✔ @JoseCanseco

Gravity had to be weaker to make dinosaurs nimble

Jose Canseco ✔ @JoseCanseco

The land was farther away from the core and had much less gravity so bigness could develop and dominate
1:36 AM - 19 Feb 13

Jose Canseco ✔ @JoseCanseco

I may not be 100% right but think about it. How else could 30 foot leather birds fly?

Re: Jose Canseco Explains Gravity

There was a good Twitter exchange between Jose and the Louisville Bats last night too. Something about his take on animal echolocation and the Horseshoe bat which he parlayed into 36 inch L'ville Sluggers making anything fly and solicited an invite to Slugger Field for a Homerun Derby.

Which, by the way, I would support fully.

Oh dear lord. It's just scary how sad that is. Wow. His teachers must be so proud.

Re: Jose Canseco Explains Gravity

He must have been pondering this theory when that ball bounced off his head for a home run.

I hope Keanu Reeves plays him in the miniseries!

WHOA!

In Jose's world, he's a genius.

He could be one of Penny's old boyfriends on Big Bang Theory.

He's not Penny worthy.

He ranks below the guy that likes Archie Comics.

Isn't Arnold going to play Canseco in his autobiography?

Re: Jose Canseco Explains Gravity

His twitter is almost too good to be true. Is it in any way possible that he is just trolling everyone?

If it were anyone other than Jose, I'd think you were right. "Bigness??"

Someone needs to put him in touch with Stephen Hawking. Have them co-write a book.

I heard both are experts on strippers, so I guess they have something in common.

Carl Everett can think of at least one thing wrong with this theory.
