The rest of these guys will fall as Braun did...Braun just did the wise thing and took a deal so he could return next year with a shattered ego and not face anymore issues. Besides, the Brewers aren't going anywhere anyway this season.

The other guys are either going to fall in line with Braun, or hope it goes away. I think towards the end of the season, a couple more will get suspended as more stuff comes to light.


ARod is done. For good. And the Yanks are more than happy to help.

I think Nelson Cruz would be a fool if he took his suspension next year.

Brewers are giving every fan who attends home games in August a $10 voucher to the concessions. With their average attendance it equates to roughly what Braun's salary would be for the games he's suspended.

That list definitely isn't as impressive as we were lead to believe.

I think that was just a taste, right. This was the last line of the article:

The announcements on the suspension lengths of the other players, including Alex Rodriguez, are still forthcoming.

It's all over Boston radio and the Yankmees are headed to Boston with the series starting tonight. This should be entertaining. Sun night immediately after the 60 minutes report, this scumbag will be on ESPN in the Sunday night game. Fenway will be a fun place to be this weekend.

Rumor on all the sports networks is that Braun will admit to taking peds and why he did it.

That's hilarious...can't wait to hear "why" he did it. It's never the truth. It would be cool if someone just came out and said, "I'm a cheater, a liar, and pretty much a bad person. I wanted to get ahead even if it meant breaking the rules. I looked at this closely and really thought that I could get away with it. I lied last time about it because that's what I do...I lie"

He might want to throw in that we really should never trust him again because he is a scumbag...but I didn't want to stretch it.

Broadcaster: Ryan, why did you use PEDs?

Ryan: to get better and make more money.

And that's really the only acceptable answer. Anything else is bullshits.

Broadcaster: And why did you try to sabotage the career of a low level testing employee?

Ryan: to stay better and keep making more money.

You'd have to pay me a lot of money to get me to ever step foot in that hole...


Anyway, I guess it's fair to say Milwaukee made the wrong choice between Braun/Fielder... Who knew?

It has been fun watching The Old Men and The Replacements. With that many injuries starting the season I expected last place. Girardi should be Manager of the Year doing what he has with the castoffs and minor leaguers. Cash man for Exec of the Year.

Soriano on fire between .300 hitters, Cano and A-Roid, Granderson hitting .302 since coming off DL, wow, if Jeter, Tex, and Pineda were in uniform ...

Regardless there's still the perennial Bosox choke to look forward to. Do they still hold the major league record for most years finishing second?

Predictable Yankee$ fan comeback. Blame injuries and bring up the glory years. I'll visit your 'yankees' thread in 6 weeks to gloat.
