He is lucky that is it considering he got out of suspension last time because of his lawyer.

oh my.

That's actually a break. I bet he took a deal that if he doesn't appeal then he won't be suspend for 100 or 150 games or whatever the repeat offender penalty is

Imagine if the Brewers were in the thick of it. This would have been even more insane.

What a scumbag....He cheated in his MVP season as well.

Go figure that these reports aren't just BS, they always seem to be true in the end.

Hope they nail all the cheaters they can find and prove. Try to clean up the game a little.

Good. I'm not a big baseball fan, but this guy is a loser. They should take back his tainted MVP but he found a way to cheat the system there as well. Karma.

Braun last February: "I would bet my life that this substance never entered my body at any point."

Maybe he should pay up on the bet now. Arrogant jerk-off...

i wish there was one reporter that would ask these guys real questions....

"do you think you deserve the mvp?"

"do you think you should pay back the brewers any of your earned salary?"

"why are you a liar?"

"how are you going to explain to your kid your a cheat and a liar?"

I don't like Freeman, but this sums it up:

@realfreemancbs: Remember what Ryan Braun did: he ruined another man's life to cover his cowardly, punk ***.

if he was truly sorry he would come out with exactly what he was taking, who he got it from, who else is using.

that wont ever happen

he is only sorry he got caught

anybody think it's weird arod just got hurt again?


The big theory is that Aroids has to be able to prove that he can no longer play baseball (basically "realizing just now that his injuries are career ending). Somehow he has to prove this before the MLB drops the hammer and thus he will be able to insure the remaining $100 mil of his contract. Reportedly about a week or so ago, he met with the MLB and they told him that they have a strong case against him and he might be next.

Good.... bye...

Now if only MLB had stepped in on Bonds before he broke that record...

Love this! And if we put our heads together we could come up with a bunch more like:

"How long have you been a scum bag?"

"How much does it cost a scum bag to buy banned substances?"

"Can you tell us about other areas of your life that you are cheating?"

"What do you consider to be your greatest cheating moment?"

"How small did your nuts get when you last took testosterone?"

"Who's most proud of you now...your mom or your dad?"

I don't know why it's so funny, but picturing a reporter ask him "Aren't you supposed to be Jewish or something?" with the same look as my avatar just cracks me up....

I'm getting sick of everyone on TV saying Braun came clean, bullshit, he got busted for a second time and knew there was no backing out of this one. he is lucky mlb took the plea bargain so he doesn't miss any of next year.

I'm currently watching rangers Yankees and some guy came on saying they have three times the amount of evidence against arod than they did Braun. He said league wanted to get this one done so that all the other names know what kind of evidence they have. He also said next week for the Arod news to start coming out.

Sutclife and Boone having a good discussion about penalty still isn't big enough to deter cheating. Rick wants all stats to be removed after one offense.

I'm with Kurt Schilling (sp?), shoulda got next year too for throwing someone else under the bus in his first explanation and making MLB look like it was their fault. He's pathetic, and a liar.

And this
Y! SPORTS

I'm not a huge baseball fan but I would be all for making steroids mandatory for all players except pitchers. How awesome would a 78-66 score be.
