I hope so, though I have feeling this one won't come as easy!

He should have won last year too!

Yes he should have!

As the Laurenzis are family friends, I can never root for Braun again!

I find it hard for people to root for Braun because he is so much better than everyone else. It's not fair to all the other players in MLB. Luckily he'll probably take a couple games off.

As a Brewers fan I agree with you. The technicality and his name showing up in that labs book. If he was on any other team I would be screaming cheater, so I have to agree with you.

The only thing that gives me pause is the way the test were handled. In addition that lady that admitted to doctoring hundreds or possibly thousands of tests at that lab a year or two ago. I dont think her lab did MLB testing specifically but she was fucking over a lot of people. I think they were for criminal purposes. So there are people out there faking this crap. Whats to stop someone like her from faking the test of a player they dont like?

For the record, I really do like Ryan Braun. He's an awesome player. That being said, Dino Laurenzi is an amazing human being. Upstanding member of the community, honest and straightforward. I believe him when he says that there was no tampering. He is not the guy to ever do that, plus everything arrived with the original seals intact. BUT tampering or PEDs wasn't what Braun's attorneys argued anyways. Laurenzi followed a protocol that he always has, attorneys questioned that protocol, BAM, the man is off on a technicality. Gotta love the lawyers! I guess I hate the fact that Dino has been destroyed in the courts of public opinion.

Dino is the guy who collected Ryan Braun's sample. His dad ran a small pharmacy in town for many years and my parents became good friends with him and his wife, my aunt babysat Dino when he was little. My daughter went to high school with his kids. He has his own physical therapy place in town and we've all rehabed with him. He also works at the southside hs as their sports therapist at all of the games and practices. Nicest guy you'd ever meet and like I said, honest.

After the his name became public, all of the media were camped outside of his house for days. They also harrassed his daughter at college.

I have never noticed this girl. Who is she? I noticed the dude with the goatee or stash toward the right side of the plate(from camera view) at EVERY game though. He has a black wife or gf(doesnt matter just a reference for people)

jbarbian

He's good people.

Ryan Braun is dirty, but I belive they all are. Althletes can no longer compete at a professional level without some kind of enhancements. But they have to have some kind of talent and natural ability, can't just pump PEDs into a sloth and hope for a miracle.

I gotta be done with my rants lol

GO BREWERS!
