It is funny when his specimen was mishandled he was all over the injustice of people even thinking that he would stoop the taking PED's. Now he comes out and says that he has made some bad decisions, and admitted to being a user.

Now all MLB has to do is get rid of A-Groin, Colon, Melky, and the other cheaters...

Go Chris Davis, hit 62 and in my eyes, at least, you are the HR champ.

The list had about 20 players on it, I dont think I ever saw the complete list, just leaks like about 20 players including Braun and Arod.
About a third of them looked like minor leaguers. All I know is that the AL playoff race could totally flip without Colon, Cruz and Peralta

Chris Davis might just be the early reincarnation of Juan Gone! That's what baseball has come to. No player can do anything amazing without speculation.

I gave Braun the benefit of the doubt after the 2012 season. Yes he did test positive and it came out to the public in December of 2011.

Prince Fielder was gone the season after Braun's MVP year. Fielder wasn't there to protect Braun at the 4 spot and was moved to clean-up.

Yet he put up very similar numbers in 2012 than his numbers the year before .

Listening to Dick Enberg and Mark Grant (former big-league pitcher) do the Padres game tonight in Milwaukee and they are ripping Ryan Braun a new one. These two are normally very conservative and don't make uncalled-for remarks.

Enberg is seriously critical of Braun's pages-long total denial of everything in which he indignantly vilified others and accepted no responsibility. Grant said that he would never trust Braun again after he essentially lied to the face of everyone in the Brewers organization.

Y'know, I was thinkin'...wouldn't it be convenient if none of the playoff contenders were affected by this whole mess until next year? :scratch:

Mark Grant is saying that Brewers people criticized Braun to him off the record because Braun left the ballpark without taking any heat off the Brewers. And he never apologized nor admitted to lying over and over and over again.

Huh? He's suppose to go to the pitchers mound with a microphone, address the crowd and teammates to apologize?

This was about 6pm

"I am very grateful for the support I have received from players, ownership and the fans in Milwaukee and around the country. Finally, I wish to apologize to anyone I may have disappointed -- all of the baseball fans especially those in Milwaukee, the great Brewers organization, and my teammates. I am glad to have this matter behind me once and for all, and I cannot wait to get back to the game I love."

First off, thanks for bringing back memories of the great Lou Brock! Dude could beat out a grounder to short if the SS even bobbled it a little bit!

Second off, if you don't know Jack Shit he's a pretty cool guy. I can introduce you to him. But then you wouldn't be able to say you don't know Jack Shit about anything ever again so I will understand if you elect to take a pass.

Well, Braun has also admitted to knowing Jack Shit as opposed to saying he didn't know him when asked questions about PEDs. Jack Shit is getting popular these days!

At least the dude finally admitted it, even though he had lied about it before. The first step toward quitting a drug(s) is to admit that you have a problem. So Mr. Braun may just be on the right track.

MLB let Braun off easy in my opinion.

The Brewers were out of the race so losing him only helps their draft potion and saves wear and tear on the guy.

Braun took a plea deal to avoid 100 games that he was looking at getting if not worse. Everyone knew Braun got off on a technicality before so he should have been a two time offender as his best case scenario.

Hope he gives the salary to charity, or those words will eat him for the rest of his career...

Another liar and cheater. I knew his MVP was bullshit and it should've been Kemp that year. 65 games is not enough if you ask me.

That is assuming so-called PED is the reason for his prodigious numbers.
