So now the steroids setback with Braun has become insanely convoluted and we may actually have some sort of season to look forward to, if Greinke screws his head back on straight and decides to buck up, or we trade him for Hanley Ramirez. I really felt like Braun was done for and that meant the Brewers were done for, at least 50 games of struggling to score a couple runs awaited us. I really believe this will still somehow not work out and Braun will face a 50-game suspension, but how is baseball getting private medical tests that they should have no sort of access to? That's a frightening, strange occurrence that ESPN should have never ran with, but that will never stop them. Real journalism is pretty well gone and a quick quote from some cousin twice removed or some bullshit source throws something out there, I'm thinking there should be a little more fact checking involved.
Side note: I'm in a fantasy basketball league that I am struggling to get through. I realize most of my basketball knowledge isn't up to par, but this season is set to be a mess. Back-to-back-to-back games crushed into a 66-game shortened schedule means a lot of the old horses of war (Looking at you Timmay) are going to be hurting quite a bit and missing time. I went with a youth movement which at one point had Amare Stoudemire as my oldest player, currently that crown rests with Mo "Chewbacca" Williams. Check this out, offer some advice if you feel up to it: Russell Westbrook, Amare Stoudemire, John Wall, Eric Gordon, Andrew Bynum, Demarcus Cousins, Andray Blatche, David West, Stephen Jackson, Tyler Hansborough, Nic Batum, Trevor Ariza, Brandon Knight, Ed Davis, Mo Williams. Rotisserie scoring, thinking assists & assist to turnover ratio is going to be hurting, but I like the youth and expect more than a few breakouts from that squad. Roster pick-up ideas are encouraged if y'all have some ideas.
