Comments on: CC Sabathia audio from today http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2009/02/13/cc-sabathia-audio-from-today/ A New York Yankees blog by Chad Jennings and the staff of The Journal News Fri, 10 Feb 2012 15:21:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: gianthinker http://yankees.lhblogs.com/2009/02/13/cc-sabathia-audio-from-today/comment-page-4/#comment-667762 gianthinker Sat, 14 Feb 2009 06:24:07 +0000 http://yankees.lhblogs.com/?p=6947#comment-667762 I think the four new guys we brought in are exactly the kinds of people, let alone, players the Yankees have needed for years. CC is electric on and off the field. Teixeira is a sweaky clean guy who speaks very well. Kind of a Derek Jeter with power. AJ is an accountable and confident guy. He can be another Carl Pavano or he could emerge as the ace because of his superior stuff. Either way, unlike Miss....I mean, Mr. Pavano, AJ will work hard through injury and NYers respect that. Nick Swisher might be the best acquisition Ca$hman made all off-season, cost-wise. I'm a fan of keeping Swisher and IF he sticks around he'll prove to be an invaluable part of our roster IMO. He's good enough to start as 1B or a corner OF spot and should, therefor, strengthen our bench GREATLY if he doesn't start in RF. Swisher sees an amazing amount of pitches each at-bat. I'm hoping he finds his way into our lineup but, like I said before, he'd give us a very good sub off the bench if thats how we choose to use him this season. I honestly think this is the first off-season I actually like all of our acquisitions in the off-season. AJ is the only question mark for me and his stuff and the fact that we signed CC in addition to AJ settles my butterflies. IF, and thats a big IF, AJ can stay healthy from now on we'll have a VERY strong rotation for years. Cross your fingers.

Now think of how many people take Cialis/Viagra/Levitra. Big discrepancy. Steroids are only prescribed for muscle wasting diseases such as AIDs, MS, etc and it is becoming increasingly difficult for these people to acquire steroid prescriptions even though they work very well. I can't simply go to my Dr. and tell him "my performance in the gym isn't what it used to be when I was 20 years old, can you give me some testosterone so I can start building muscle again?" But if I was having trouble getting a woody, that same Dr. would have no problem prescribing me Viagra and even giving me free samples. I know a lot more about steroids than you forgot so you should just take my word for it Patrick... Patrick,
