  1. I expect 44,000 to be chanting "MVP" before his first plate appearance on opening day!

  2. I feel guilty for hoping he has a good year. Guess I'm not above being a fan first.

  3. I would hope that Milwaukee fans would turn their back to the plate every time that Braun is up....and not bothering watching. Kinda like Braun turned his back on the urine collector and tried to destroy the man, all in trying to save himself. Ryan Braun = Lance Armstrong = nobody we should ever cheer for.

  4. So the mistake was doing the press conference. Gotcha.

    • Yep, that is my opinion. That fact that he was taking 'roids or whatever - fine, a bunch of guys were doing it, and it helped Braun put up better numbers. But he was caught red-handed (ok, maybe not red HAND, but a different body part). He knew he was guilty - but instead went after the collector. A real man would have stood up and admitted his mistake then and taken the punishment. But he continued to blame others and say he was innocent - until he was completely cornered, and could not lie anymore. That is the part that I can't live with. He had his chance to come clean when he was caught but chose not to. And it saddens me that so many view that as appropriate behavior. Yes, the taking of steriods can be forgiven - what he did after he was caught speaks to the true character of the man. It would be like cheering for Lance Armstrong. Sorry, can't do it.
    • His arrogance has no boundaries, even today. If he knew he would eventually get caught he would not have thrown people under the bus and lied his donkey off. Fantastic. Maybe one day he will get it, but as of now he's just the same person who was buying drugs in Miami.
  5. Does anyone believe that the local critics actually CARE about the urine transporter? He's long forgotten, one of many people who have lost their jobs due to incompetence. Braun is in the fabric of the team for a long while, so get a life and enjoy the rosy looking future of the Brewers, with, his bat and defense.
  6. If I knew then what I know now.
  7. All the old arguments coming out again.

  8. Isn't moving forward the only real option at this point? He's apologized and served his punishment, what more does he need to say or do? What's done is done, it's time for everyone to move on.

  9. Sadly,I wish the Brewers had drafted Tulowitzki or McCutchen instead of Braun.

  10. >>>There's no blueprint that this is how you deal with these things or handle the situation.<<<

    Actually, Ryan, there is a blueprint. Here it is:

    1. Don't take any banned substances.
    2. If you are taking banned substances, stop immediately.
    3. If you get busted for taking banned substances, tell the truth immediately and take responsibility for your actions.
    4. Teling the truth at all times prevents or reduces the negative consequences that will come.
