In case you missed it, just a few weeks ago, José Canseco shot his own finger off. Surgeons were able to reattach it, but his troubles were far from over.
Dam I was playing in a poker tournament last night and something crazy happened to my finger that I shot off and they put back on.

I knew something crazy was going to happen with this dam finger cause it felt like it was falling off.

Turns out, José’s suspicions were well founded:
Ok well I might as well tell you .I was playing in a poker tournament last night and my finger fell off .someone took a video of it.

My finger should have been amputated from the beginning. It was very loose with no bone to connect it.it was also smelling really bad.

I bet a long time ago you could easily loose a finger a hand or even your life in a poker game if you couldn't pay up.

I would totally bid on @JoseCanseco's pistol but I'll pass on the finger. Lord knows where that thing has been.
