Also this tells me that he lied about last season when he said he was innocent. And that draining noise that u hear is his Hall Of Fame and image going down the toilet

Waived his appeal to get it done this season as the Brewers aren't competing for the playoffs this year.

Other players who are on competitive teams are more likely to drag this out.

Pretty certain he was suspended for "recreational" drugs, not PED's.

As one of the few Brewer fans here, I can't express my disappointment  in Braun strongly enough.  I gave him the benefit of the doubt before but now I'd like to see the whole lot of them kicked out of the game for at least 2 years.  Enough is enough

You had any doubt about this? I think it the common perception was that he got off on a technicality.

Rumors were, "the leagues substance abuse policy" so I think it does mean rec drugs

It is unknown which substances Miller is accused of using. Under NFL policy, Miller would have to test positive for banned substances twice before facing a four-game suspension.

Atallah didn't say what Miller tested for, but did later tweet, "I can also confirm that Von's case does not involve the Steroids and Related Substances Policy."

The Denver Post reported Monday that Miller tested positive for amphetamines and steroids in 2011, his rookie season.

You have to fail a test twice to be suspended in the NFL.  When did that happen?

They said on the radio that in 2011 he tested positive for amphetamines (spelling) and possibly PED's
