Aaron Rodgers reacts to Ryan Braun suspension
GREEN BAY (WITI) -- Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers on Friday, July 26th reacted to the news that his friend and business partner, Milwaukee Brewers slugger Ryan Braun is serving a 65-game suspension -- and is essentially done playing baseball for this season.Braun's suspension came after an ESPN report last month named Braun as one of 20 players facing suspension due to a scandal involving performance-enhancing drugs.Braun didn’t look like he could be stopped during the 2011 season, leading the Brewers to the National League Championship Series, and claiming the National League’s Most Valuable Player award.However, in December of that year, a report of Braun testing positive for performance enhancing drugs surfaced and the spectre of a suspension loomed.A month later, Braun accepted his MVP award against a backdrop of controversy.In February of 2012, arbitrators ruled that the chain of custody for Braun’s urine sample in question was compromised, clearing Braun from any MLB punishment.
