Ryan Braun upset a lot of people along the way to being suspended by Major League Baseball for 65 games, for his involvement with performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs). On Thursday, rather than facing the cameras, the Milwaukee Braves slugger released a 944-word statement.
It is a tepid start for his bid to resuscitate his reputation – whatever is left of it. cheap jersey knit fabric Braun is persona non grata, not just to many baseball fans but to teammates and opponents and, I'd imagine, probably a few formerly close friends as well.You would think by now that he would try to be a little less measured in his actions; that he would try to show a little bit more humanity.
