    I don't know, but certainly not holier than thou, Bob "Mr. Soapbox" Costas.

    I couldn't disagree with this more. It's like we read two different statements.
  3. dlk9s
    Well, this thread got bumped entirely unnecessarily.

    I'm watching ESPN right now. I love how the picture they use for Braun in the caption at the bottom of the screen is absolutely awful. He looks like he can't believe how bad the dump he just took smells and is trying to force out another one that just doesn't want to budge.

    Quite the contrary, the apology part of the statement was really strong. I understand some people want more of the gory details of his PED use, but as far as actual apologies go, I don't know how much more people could want.

    Will that fit on the back of his jersey?
  8. dlk9s
    Yes, let's bean Molina for doing well.

    People also act like he was some poor guy relying on this job to put food on the table (not that losing any job is good). He had/has a full-time job and one that seemed pretty solid at that. I do feel bad for Dino having to go through all sorts of crap, though.

    I would think it would be quite the opposite for Braun. He's much more likely to be treated well in Milwaukee than somewhere else, especially a big market. He's "one of ours" - I mean look at how much more harshly fans and media from around the country have reacted ever since this whole thing started last year as compared to Brewers/Braun fans. If he went to Boston, for example, he'd be the cheater that they didn't even like that much in the first place. There would be no reason for anyone to embrace him. The media there would be relentless. In Milwaukee, yeah, he cheated and yeah it was a fiasco, but we (the collective "we" - I'm not necessarily speaking for myself or people on BF.net) have always liked him, his teammates have liked him, and he has shown an appreciation for the city and the state. We may be upset with him, but there's a much better chance that we can eventually forgive, even if we don't forget. Bottom line if I'm Braun and I'm presented with a trade scenario: I'd rather stay where people know me and have loved me, even if they see me as a jerk (understatement) at the moment, rather than go to a city where they only see me as a jerk.

    What does this mean? Do you think he's going to be a .220 hitter with no power or something? He'll still be very good. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he's just as good as he's been (age decline and mental stress not withstanding), just not able to deal with injuries as well.

    Found myself checking out Fox Sports 1 this morning and Gabe Kapler was a guest in studio. They asked him, as a former teammate of Braun's, if he could forgive him. He said yes, as long as he comes forth with a genuine apology and explanation that shows he is human. He said the big difference between Braun and A-Rod is that Braun's teammates like him and thus many will likely be willing to forgive.

    Check out this "Minimalist Baseball Stadium" art. Four NL parks, four AL parks so far, and Miller Park is one of them. Really cool. I never make gift requests, but I might have to this year: http://www.redbubble.com/people/pootpoot/works/10688945-minimalist-miller-park-milwaukee?c=228033-minimalist-baseball-stadiums

    I would think at least 75% of the teams in MLB would trade for Braun in a heartbeat and many would actually offer a decent package for him. The thing is, a "decent" package is unfortunately a PED discounted rate.

    THIRD BASE!
  17. dlk9s
    What? Second base, most likely.
  18. dlk9s
    Who is a natural fit at first base.
  19. dlk9s
    Looked like a hammy to me.
  20. dlk9s
    I think that's a question that has to be asked and something I've been wondering myself since the beginning. Every player involved in this whole thing is Hispanic except for Braun. I don't know what it means but it seems odd to me. It's quite obviously because of the Miami connection.

    I'm just here for the lolStarlin.
  24. dlk9s
    So let me get this straight. You think MLB has zero evidence that Braun cheated and it's just Bud Selig deciding to personally screw over Braun because Braun found a way to win his appeal last year?
  25. dlk9s
    Oh boy, what's the story with Gallardo leaving mid-batter? EDIT: Never mind, I see on twitter that he is limping badly. Cue the complaints about not trading him earlier!
