They claim they can prove otherwise. Might want to hold your judgement for now. Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
This sucks to hear, I always liked watching him play. Looks like they should have given the award to Matt Kemp now!
Yeah I saw that as well. I don't expect RB to win his appeal but at least we still need to give him the benefit of the doubt at this point. I'm not holding my breath however. My gut feeling tells me he is guilty and thought he could get away with it. I’m just not ready to burn my RB jerseys just yet. Have to wait until this is done first.
I hear ya Brad, my gut feeling tells me he didn't do it, I'm hoping I'm right! He just doesn't seem like that guy, ya know! Damn!
I hope that it's a false test. He's probably my favorite non-Cardinals player. However, like Dan said, almost everyone who tests positive has some excuse of why they did, and it never gets reversed.
First test he failed, second he passed. When they got the results back from the failed test they automatically test to see what caused the raised levels of testosterone...his was synthetic. It was also stated that the difference of passing and failing can be just a few hours difference on when you take the test. Biggest thing going against him is the fact synthetic was the term thrown around. I hope he is the first to prove his innocence, as he is a beast at the plate. He also doesn't fit the "apperence" of a guy on the sauce. Bud selig is pissing his pants right now, ESPN keeps running his quote saying the minor league testing has been in place for 9 years and everyone from Ryan Howard to Ryan Braun has been in the system during that time period.
For the sake of all young kids and athletes that look up to Ryan Braun as a role model, that's why I hope he is cleared.
As a fan of baseball this sucks! I hope it was something he had taken that he had no idea would test positive.
As a Cardinal fan, I hope somehow this isn't true. I really like watching Braun play. The Brew Crew will have a rough start to the season w/o Prince and Braun, if this stands up.
