So in case you were in a coma yesterday then you know how awesome Monday April 19th was. There was just so much win in almost everything that happened. However, through all the awesome one happening shone brighter than the others; one thing was truly epic.
No I don't mean Client Jaroslaugh HAHAHAlak being pulled in favor of Carey Jesus Price, and I'm not talking about Andrew Raycroft going in for Luongo. No, I'm referring to Jose Canseco absolutely losing his damn mind yesterday morning on Twitter. Through his verified Twitter account, the former Bash Brother suggested an ancient Spartan style of killing unpure babies upon birth; challenged all those who doubted his MMA skills to a fight; foretold the impending end of the world; threatened murder upon haters; and then had his girlfriend wake up and apologized for "venting" unto the world, all the while berating people who tweeted at him. Down Goes Brown has provided you with a handy dandy flowchart to use in case you meet Jose on the street and want to avoid getting beat up.
Seriously if you're not on Twitter, get on Twitter. Then follow me @SkinnyFishbowl (why yes, I have no shame) and then follow @JoseCanseco. You'll be glad you did.
Oh also, some hockey related stuff happened yesterday. Follow the jump for those links.
