36. "So you're free to regard Braun as a cheater" In response to In response to 27
Since it's about six weeks until actual games start, my interest is less on what's inside of Ryan Braun's urine than whether he'll be on the field for the first third of the season.
You'll note that I didn't offer an opinion on his actual guilt or innocence, but rather whether MLB has the right to grumble about a lifted suspension. If you want one, here's a thoroughly dull one - I'm sure he does all sorts of horrible stuff with vile drugs in the dark, dirty night. However, a testing/suspension program is a bargain, and Braun isn't the only one who didn't uphold his end of the deal.
It's weak that people are in here doing Selig's dirty work for him, when MLB couldn't be bothered to adhere to its own rules, both with testing procedure and with the initial leaked result. There's more at stake here than whether we have absolute internet consensus that Ryan Braun is an evil jerkpants, and it's more than worth having his suspension lifted to make sure they get this right in the future.
