C.J. Wilson starts group on facebook




str8edgeracer    anyone on FB who wants to join my baseball advice forum...I just created a group for you! http://bit.ly/6OIaId

That is from C.J's twitter he has started a facebook group. C.J. is a pitcher for the Texas Rangers if you don't know, and loves baseball, but baseball isn't his only love. He loves racing, and just living life. A straight shooter, and edger, and loves an adrenaline rush. He's also the only person who got away with tossing a ball at his boss.

 

 

The group info reads

"Hi this is CJ Wilson and this is a page on FB for those of you youth and amateur baseball players who seek advice on stuff related to your baseball career. I get a lot of questions that I think would benefit all of the kids who follow me on here and instead of just giving it out one at a time, figured I could help more people!"

 

It's a really nice gesture of him, and he really does put a lot of effort to connect with the fans, and give advice. So anybody who is looking for advice that is the group to join. I found a few reviews of the group

 

 

 

"I love it so much! I'm a freshman in HIgh School, and was having doubts about my abilities, but after joining star pitcher C.J. Wilson's facebook group I get compared to a young Nolan Ryan! It's free, and easy to use. He's like a magic eight ball ask him anything!"

 

Bryan in Comanche Texas.

 

 

 

"Okay all you people who want advice on baseball look no further than C.J. Wilson's facebook group. I used to be an average pitcher who probably wouldn't make it out of college, but now scouts go to my game, and my little brothers friends ask me for an autograph. I'm already a hometown hero! Thank you C.J."

 

Brian in Colleyville Texas.

 

 

 

"How many times have you been sitting around your house wondering "How do you throw a gyro ball?" Well now you have the answer, no don't ask google. Go to C.J. Wilson's facebook group, and ask him! He taught me how, and people are amazed at the movement on the ball. It's ridiculously amazing! Even if you're not a fan of baseball I'd join the group just on shear awesomeness alone!"

 

 

Byron in Corpus Christi Texas.

The Contract

…is kinda weird. My signing bonus was a 16 year old virgin who looks 40, and I am to be paid 3 goats and a barrel of oil every month.

Be careful

I think in Tajikistan the word for virgin is similar to the word for she-goat.

Brian, Bryan, or Byron to be helped?

Trying too hard.

At this point

I think trying too hard is his entire bit.

If the Rangers were in the playoffs... the soundtrack could be one long continuous fart, and I would love it. - cmkelly

A month ago CJ told me how to make a gyro..

I’ve eaten several a day since then! Thank you so much CJ, I’m so happy I feel like jumping in a lake in the dead of winter!

I don't understand why folks are harping on this.

He actually tries to contribute more than just his semen to the community which is a rarity amongst pro athletes these days.

we're from Texas

I was actually just trying to find a fun way to promote it

I know there is a lot of people on here that lurk that could probably benefit greatly from it. Maybe not as much the three B’s from the Three C’s, but still.

I like CJ Wilson

Don’t know how much semen he’s introduced around the community (if any), but either way he seems like an ok guy who tries to do the right thing.

I was just having a little fun.

"Byron" is not a homonym for Brian or Bryan

It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops.
