Two things that stand out here: 1. Could this be a link to the positive test that braun had in 2011? The clinic's ridiculous book keeping doesn't have any dates, as far as I know. Most people thing Braun got away with one. Perhaps this is validation of that. If so, he looks like a gigantic tool for generating this consultant story. I don't believe this one, but i'd say this is obviously the pathway the media will take 2. If the lawyer consultation thing is legit, then it seems like they would have had to submit the "evidence" received from the clinic in the appeal, which would mean Braun is easily exonerated. I think this will happen, but like last time, probably not until everyone has decided he's a cheat. Either way, the negative PR sucks---I really love watching Braun play---he's having the best peak of any Brewer in history, I just hate that he's treated like Kim Jong Saddaam Bin Hitler by the media. especially while obvious users like Ray Lewis (who should be noted, probably murdered two people or at least watched two people get murdered by his friends) get tear filled goodbyes when they retire.. whatever---I just don't want a suspension---If Braun is out for 50 or more games, the Brewers are much more screwed than last year. Umm, Gomez, Aoki, and Schafer would be an incredibly weak outfield...combined with Gamel at 1st Base, and we might be dueling with the Cubs for last.
