Um, why exactly do you find that funny? He passed his last three tests and his numbers were just as great. The question is, why did he take steroids when he didn't need them to be great? It's too bad, but on to next year.

When you're under the microscope like he was last year? I'm talking about the 2012 season. Not the 2011.

I would bet that after MLB got burnt on this first test, they wouldnt dare target him or put him under the microscope. If they showed any indication of targeting him, he would have been able to claim bias and gotten off the hook again.

But he did take the tests. And he had "nothing to hide", so why fight it? And he had a chip on his shoulder last year and wanted to prove he didn't need the banned substances, and he proved that. I think he needed them in the 2011 season because they were making a push for the playoffs and he had an injury he wanted to subdue.

most the PED's these guys are taking now-days are out of your system in 24 hours... (so they say) so sure he passed 3 more tests... doesnt mean hes not still using something sometime? the bigger sign that hes not, is missing all the games this year and not staying healthy.

I still wanna know what the "whole story" is that Lucroy, Tulo and Aaron Rogers keep talking about? now that Brauns admitting to making "mistakes"??? so whats the "whole story" ? that everyone is using what he got busted using?

Seems like he worked out an agreement with MLB to get it over with / not drag it out any longer... and the Brewers are out of it anyway so why not get it over with... way to take one for the team? lol

all I wish is some big name NFL guys would get nabbed at some point... take the black eye away from baseball for 5 mins

If we went by what you thought, ellis, then every ball player is guilty. Even your favorite players.

I'm just saying Braun has great talent. He has consistently put up great numbers. He can do so with or without the use of substances. And he will continue to do great work next year.

ummmm wake up --- the guys got an Ego im shocked he signed a long term deal with Milwaukee, not supporting his short cuts at all.

you are right though Harry, hes just like Bonds... does not need the PEDs to put up the numbers... but their EGOS dont let them be 2nd to anyone...

There's a lot to blame Braun for here, but the one thing driving me absolutely crazy on twitter is the people calling for him to apologize to the FedEx guy because it ruined his career. The FedEx Guy was TAKING THINGS HOME because he didn't have time to deliver them. I would assume ANY fedex employee taking home things would probably be fired if they got caught.
