STORY SUMMARY:

On the eve of the Congressional Committee hearings related to Major League Baseball's performance enhancing drug scandal, XM Public Radio hosted a "town hall" debate forum with several distinguished guests, including former Major League Baseball All-Star Jose Canseco and U.S. Surgeon General Richard Carmona, MD.

Other guests included Kevin Malone, former general manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers, and Jose Canseco's lawyer Robert Saunooke.

The House Government Reform Committee, an arm of Congress, has summoned several Major League players and others associated with Major League Baseball to testify on Thursday, March 17th. The committee is evaluating allegations of steroid use in Major League Baseball and the adequacy of the league's response.
