Jose Canseco to A-Rod: Stop Cheating on J-Lo, You Piece of Shit
The fiery outburst by Canseco against his former teammate will come as little surprise to followers of their long-running feud. Still—way to ruin an engagement buzz.

Jose Canseco has renewed his feud with Alex Rodriguez in spectacular style, accusing the legendary ballplayer of cheating on his fiancée, Jennifer Lopez, less than 36 hours after they announced their engagement.
Canseco has long alleged that his fellow former New York Yankee had an affair with his ex-wife, Jessica Canseco, née Sekely, and used the weekend’s news of their engagement to double down on those claims Sunday night.
Jose and Jessica have been divorced since 1999.
As far back as 2008, Canseco was telling reporters he was “pretty sure” his wife and A-Rod had an affair and claimed in his book Vindicated that Rodriguez bombarded her with messages and phone calls.
He even tweeted his phone number to J-Lo last night in case she wanted to get in touch for further details.
Why do we suspect those digits may go unused?
Canseco alleged that he introduced A-Rod to a steroid dealer in the late 1990s, snitching on the meeting to get revenge on his rival for his alleged attentions to his then-wife.
Rodriguez has never responded to Canseco’s allegations.
He announced his engagement to Lopez on Saturday, tweeting a picture of a ring and the message, “She said yes.”
Jessica is a cosmetic tattoo artist and has one child with Canseco.
