Not sure about pot or kettle here. Jose Canseco called Red Sox pitcher Kurt Schilling 'a liar and a hypocrite for Schilling's remarks. Boston Globe with the story.
Former big leaguer Jose Canseco called Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling a "hypocrite and a liar" last night in response to Schilling saying on HBO's "Costas Now," which aired Tuesday night, "Everything [Canseco] ever did should be wiped clean. I think his MVP should go back and should go to the runner-up [former Sox outfielder Mike Greenwell]."
Canseco, reached at his home in Southern California, didn't take kindly to Schilling's words, at one point saying, "I guess it's just Curt being Curt." Canseco also lashed out at Schilling for his congressional testimony in March 2005, during which he said he had not seen steroid use in baseball.
We don't quite know what Schilling lied about in his testimony to Congress. Jose does though:
"He lied before Congress and he was reprimanded for it," according to Canseco. "What a horrendous performance he put on with the spotlight on him in front of the whole world and he could have said something important. Of all people to be saying something like that. Are you kidding me? He's a complete hypocrite. Nobody takes him seriously. People around baseball all feel the same way about him.
"I could care less what Schilling thinks."
