guy here on kansas city radio said there is a rumor that braun had std and something he took to combat that tested him positive. just a rumor though.
Did it really matter even if that was true?
In my opinion there are three scenarios, which all should have the same outcome:
1) This is just a bad attempt of trying to cover up him taking some PEDs --> ban his ass because he tried to cheat
2) He indeed had a STD and took some meds containing a banned substance that caused the positive test
--> he knew that he was taking some banned substance (and STILL PLAYED while being on that stuff) --> ban his ass because he tried to cheat
--> he didn't know that stuff contained a banned substance --> ban his ass for stupidity: Every pro athlete should be wise enough to inquire about the meds and the substances in it. Shouldn't be too hard to consult the medical staff of your team to find out if you're good or if that medication might cause a positive test.
Either way he didn't have any problems playing while taking some banned substance, so I don't really see why he should be let off the hook since that stuff is banned for a reason and if (for w/e reason) you are required to take banned substances DON'T PLAY...
