Zimmerman > Braun

What a scumbag, juicer

Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty? The court of public opinion is worse than the judicial courts lately.

The tests showed elevated levels of testosterone and that they were synthetic.  Doesn't mean he intentionally shot up, but something he took had it in it.

It's a sad day for baseball. I thought we were moving past this phase, but this is going to make it heat up all over again.

Will it though?

It'll show that testing works... and even superstars get popped if they're trying to cheat.

Nope.  As long as there is competition, there will be people trying to get any edge they can which also involves cheating.

Your MVP tests positive for a PED? I hope I'm just far more skeptical than you are.

For MLB testing sake they better hope this isn't a false positive.  It'll be interesting to see what they determine the substance he used was.

wow this sucks. I was expecting something extremely terrible as well but this does kind of suck. A player like Braun being accused as a juicer? That's bad. Well, hopefully nothing like this happens with Zimmerman. This should also be a sign... Sign Fielder!!!

One thing I'll give braun is at least he cares about winning- he's in the middle 160 million over two contracts, he could have easily cylced off and enjoyed the money

Let me get straight to the point: it's impossible to tell for sure that anyone has taken synthetic testosterone.

If this is true, which I hope it isn't, the Brewers are probably crapting a brick right now.  Unless something happened with the new CBA they're probably thinking about the Frankie Rodriguez case and sweating.

The Mets inquired about cancelling his contract after his domestic violence arrest but we're told to pound sand.

Right... but what does that have to do with the Brewers? Not a chance they cancel Braun's contract... positive test or not.

And what happens if he tests positive again and again?

Fair enough.

As you said, MLB would likely just tell them to pound sand.

Lets see what happens to his numbers over the course of his 160 million deals now that he going to get extra testing, not to mention they basically choose to keep him.over prince
