Braun Suspended for Balance of the 2013 Season

[drcy]

A lot of players get in trouble for illegally taking prescription medicine-- meaning taking it without a doctor's prescription. Steroids and HGH are legal if and only if prescribed by a physician. And, in fact, MLB does on rare occasion allow players to take steroids or HGH if they have legitimate, physician identified medical reason that requires the treatment. In recent years one actively playing MLB player was allowed to use HGH because he had a genetic medical condition.

Duly note that federal law states that steroids cannot be prescribed for athletic performance reasons.

Prescription pain killers are taken legally in the US everyday. But normal citizens do go to jail for forging prescriptions to get them.

Lastly, federal law states tat steroids cannot be prescribed for athletic performance. Any use of them for athletic performance is by definition against the law.

My point exactly.....

Show me a story where these reporters have stated factually that Braun was using some special blend of testosterone from Tony Bosch. Because when I Google Ryan Braun Tony Bosch and special blend, the only result I see that has a "special blend", or a "special testosterone blend" is your post. I don't see one more article anywhere in the first three pages. If this were a fact, this would be all over the internet.

So, please, link me to even one story where a reporter has gone on the record stating "it is fact that Bosh supplied Braun with a special blend of testosterone".

I think it was a special blend of Kool Aid. Only sold in Wisconsin.

Drat, I used to drink Kool Aid when I lived in Wisconsin. I better not apply for a job with Major League Baseball. ol' Bud will have me thrown off the premises.

I'm from Wisconsin and grew up a Brewers fan. I just know that when there's latest serious PED rumor (that later turns out to be true) the home town fans go into a state of self denial, or a state of denying the obvious, about their hometown player and swear on a stack of bible's he's innocent and wrongly accused. Happened with Giants fans Barry Bonds, happened Cardinals fans and McGwire and happened with Brewers fans and Braun. If Bonds played with the A's, those same Giants fans would have said he was a cheater. If Braun played for the Boston Red Sox, the same Brewers fans would have said he was guilty. That's the way it invariably works.

Check out TJ QUINN'S podcast with mike and mike...I think you will find its eye opening Bill.....TJ is an investigative reporter who has been following Braun for a year or so...he said they uncovered an EXTENSIVE DOPING PROGRAM by BRAUN mainly involving a special testosterone blend made by Bosch ...the evidence was so overwhelming that Braun ran away yesterday without one public appearance....

I know who TJ Quinn is.

It might come out, but I'm just going by what I'm seeing online. Nothing as of yet. If it sheds some light on what was really going on, though, that's a good thing. Let it all come out, in my opinion, and let's see some humility from Braun for once.

TQ has been speaking just today in regards to this mess...a lot of his words have not been put into written form yet so they could show up in a Search...

He also appeared on Espn this morning and stated why I said....EXTENSIVE TESTOSTERONE DOPING PROGRM THAT LASTED YEARS.... He compared that to Pettitte who he said only used once to get back from injury quicker....
