You can knock any ball out of the park. But you look at your biceps and you see that they're lacking. You want muscles, the same way that young teenage girls want personal shoppers. You had a personal shopper once, but she didn't like it when you ran around Saks Fifth Avenue with your shirt off.
So it's come to this. Hank and his secret stash. You stop studying your credit card statements. You look at the needle and you stick it in your arm and you feel your muscles expanding. You know that you're a better baseball player, a better man, and that you can stop anyone's heartbeat with a single thought.
You're unstoppable, kid. Who cares if you're growing older?
Your friends think you're out of control. But the nice thing about steroids is that you can get new friends. Glitzy people who will nod their head and tell you that your deltoid muscles are the Eighth Wonder of the World. And the locker room groupies arrive more frequently. You feel impotent, but you don't care. They're caught in the moment. And besides there's that penis pump you borrowed from Number 34.
Steroids will cure disease. Steroids are your true compadre. Good thing you can operate as an athlete. Because the last thing you need is some bullshit allegation that you're not a team player.
