Braun should apologize to the 2011 DBacks

[Desert Glory]

I posted this in the off topic thread cause it didn't effect the DBacks, but Braun got suspended today.

Then I saw this tweet. Not only do I agree but I want it done. The way he is wording his apology, it shows that he is almost admitting he was wrong in 2011 too.

The guy he should be apologizing to is Dino Laurenzi Jr. Sue his ass Dino Laurenzi Jr.

Most definietly, he attacked him so hard. What a scumbag.

That Arizona tweet is being re-tweeted by practically every MLB expert and lots of other big names. Good to see them get some love. Pedro Gomez also said almost all of the 2011 DBacks feel cheated.

Braun roided us out of our second World Series! That bastard!

To your point Davis:

Braun scandal reminds us of man whose reputation he ruined « SI.com

Um, you're skipping a step there but he certainly roided you out of a chance to play the Cardinals.

Nahhh... everyone knows the Dbacks would have won it all after that... Ye have no faith...

I hear you Clayton but we were the heavy favorites in the national league! Obviously, it is all circumstance but I would have liked our chances in that series!

 

[Desert Glory]

I would have at least liked a chance to see a DBacks / Cardinals series. If I remember right, the Cardinals had beat us in the season series but the teams hadn't played since the 1st half. Cardinals were hot though, so who knows.

I just would have liked the shot at it.

He'll be in line behind Luis Gonzalez

 

[Desert Glory]

Wow. And just think with Braun not appealing the suspension, how much credibility Bosch received.

If Luis Gonzalez ever comes up in any official report besides from what random fans with no insider say, then yes.

 

[Jonas_steven]

The evidence they have against A-rod will eventually lead to his permanent dismissal from baseball. Good riddance!

 

[Davis_Mike]

The precedent has been set with Braun's "admission" of guilt. It's going to be hard for players to attack the credibility of Bosch now. It would be better to just admit you cheated and take a deal for a lesser suspension.

Got any facts or evidence to back that up? Or are you just a TOOL?!

Taking the deal is definitely the way to go, Braun only got what 65 games? 3.5 million lost? That's nothing for him. Unless of course the Brewers try to go after his contract and void it, which I doubt.

I'm gonna go with him being a tool, since he came to Braun thread and brought up Luis Gonzalez for no reason.

And that's coming from a fan that thinks lots of good players were roiding around that time, for the entire league.

Agreed. Once the hammer drops on A-rod, all these other forementioned users will be looking to strike a deal! Alexi amarista owes us at least 2-3 games!

Ryan Braun is the Lance Armstrong of MLB - ESPN

He needs to offer apologize to the Arizona Diamondbacks franchise. Braun tested positive for PEDs in the fall of 2011, in the midst of the playoffs, and against Arizona that fall, he batted .500, with nine hits in 18 at-bats, as the Brewers edged the Diamondbacks, three games to two. Braun’s performance -- aided by performance-enhancing drugs -- may have directly cost the Diamondbacks’ players money and a chance to advance to the World Series.

The players’ union has gone through a tremendous evolution in its attitude toward those who violate the terms of the drug-testing system, and in the aftermath of Braun’s test, there were members of the Arizona organization who were enraged. The players voted over and over to implement and then repeatedly strengthen the drug-testing program, to ensure the level playing field, because they didn’t want some players to have an advantage over other players in trying to win jobs, and earn money.

Braun cheated all of them, and in the fall of 2011, nobody was affected more directly than the Diamondbacks.
