Aaron Rodgers was so sure his buddy on the Milwaukee
Brewers, Ryan Braun, didn't use performance-enhancing drugs, that he told a
skeptical Twitter follower last February that he would put his money where his
mouth was.
Well, Braun has been suspended by Major League Baseball for
the rest of the season after dropping an appeal, and somewhere Todd Sutton is
wondering how he can collect the Green Bay Packers quarterback's $4.5 million
base salary for this year.
When Braun had a positive test for PEDs overturned on
appeal, Rodgers publicly defended him then as well.
Might be a bit awkward the next time the two Wisconsin
sports stars talk.
Rodgers probably should be regretting being so defensive of
Braun, now that Braun has dropped his appeal and said he made "some
mistakes" and is willing to accept the consequences. Rodgers once backed
out of a jersey bet with the R&B group Boyz II Men, and we really don't
figure he will "pony up" on his Braun bet either.
