Perhaps the most disgusting thing about performance enhancing drugs is that they call everything we see into doubt. For example, most people would just assume that Jay Gibbons is bad at baseball because Jay Gibbons is naturally bad at baseball. Alas, it's not just the Gibbons family genes that have taken Jay all the way to a .230/.272/.348 line this year ... it's Signature Pharmacy's finest!A source in Florida with knowledge of Signature Pharmacy's client list alleges that between October 2003 and July 2005, Gibbons received six separate shipments of Genotropin (a brand name for synthetic Human Growth Hormone), two shipments of testosterone and two shipments of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), a hormone produced naturally during pregnancy, but taken by anabolic steroid users to stimulate the production of testosterone, which is suppressed as a result of steroid use. The information regarding Gibbons only pertains to receipt and not actual use of the drugs.If ever there was an advertising nightmare for steroid dealers everywhere, this is it. Hey kids: take steroids, and you can hit just like Jay Gibbons! Um ... no thanks?

A SOURCE in Florida with access to some client list tells me nothing. In theory, the ONLY ones who keep client lists are companies, NOT some unnamed source.
I don't know anything about this Gibbons, but the pic shown makes him look like an underfed prepubescent teenager - maybe he needs food supplements just to be able to pick up a bat? Has he ever OFFICIALLY tested positive for steroids?
Instead of publishing potentially damaging news scoops just to add another minimalist story to your resume, with little or no VERIFIABLE first hand documentation, maybe you could get more reader points with undercover stories about cock fighting and other HOT topics.
Sorry, but this supposed news item kinda left me out in the cold - maybe it was meant to be a commercial for Signature Pharmacy, which I just Googled - curiously they do NOT seem to list a PRIVACY NOTICE on the pages I looked at - did your SOURCE buy the info from them?
Ask your source if there are any movie or pop stars who use their menopause products, it might make for a jucier read.
