Victor Conte Now a Free Man; Set to Release Tell-All Book

BALCO founder and "Ape Walk" song creator, Victor Conte, is a free man today. His encarciration for criminal probation expired at midnight last evening. (I hope they let him out in the dead of the night.)

And it looks like Mr. Conte is wasting no time spinning his tales of steroid debauchery into a tell-all book. From the NY Daily News:
Slated for publication in September under the Skyhorse imprint, the book's working title is "BALCO: The Straight Dope on Barry Bonds, Marion Jones and What We Can Do To Save Sports." Conte, in conjunction with co-author Nathan Jendrick, promises to share "the dirt, the drugs, the doses, the names, dates and places, and a 'prescription' for a brighter future."

He promises the "complete truth in its honest, unadulterated and raw form" and says he is "ready to tell the world everything."
Whoa, whoa, whoa wait a second here. This sounds like a complete knockoff. Didn't Will Leitch already tell us how to save sports? And isn't Jose Canseco already releasing his second tell-all book on a similar subject? Although, i do like my truth in it's "unadulterated and raw form," so I guess I can give this one a shot.
