*So the difference between "chain of custody was broken" and "I thought it was flaxseed oil" is...? (SI's Joe Sheehan)
*My next drug test I'm totally using the Kinkos-was-closed-and-I-was-forced-to-refrigetrate-my-urine-overnight excuse. (Yahoo Sports' Brad Evans)
*Braun should heretofore be considered clean ballplayer. Unfair to think otherwise. News of test should never have gotten out (CBSSports.com's Jon Heyman)
*"While we have always respected that process, Major League Baseball vehemently disagrees with the decision rendered today by arbitrator Shyam Das." (MLB)
*I don't know whether to respect MLB for their honesty or roll my eyes at them for being sore losers. (Baseball Prospectus' Emma Span)
*And if MLB did mishandle evidence, its PED testing is more of a joke than we thought. Makes you question the whole thing. (Deadspin's Barry Petchesky)
*"It's frankly unreal. And it's a kick in the gut to clean athletes."
(USADA CEO Travis Tygert, via Yahoo Sports' Jeff Passan)
*Chain of custody a technicality? It's critical to fair drug policy, and is mentioned 33 times in the MLB drug policy. (Tulane Sports Law Center's Gabe Feldman)
*What a phenomenal lift for the Brewers. Had Braun gone into camp suspended, the atmosphere would've been somber. Now, tremendously upbeat.
(Yahoo's Jeff Passan)
*So at what point do I receive an apology for having my Christmas party unnecessarily interrupted last December? (Yahoo's Kevin Kaduk)
*This, by the way, is how it's supposed to work. If the penalty is 50 games and millions of $, the process better be PRISTINE. (SI's Joe Sheehan)
*You know the real winner here is? The guy who kept overdrafting Braun in mocks because of the potential upside. Ahem. (Joe Sheehan)
*When Ryan Braun hired Jeremy Lin as his defense counsel, you knew it was over. (Erik Malinowski)
*Will someone let me know whether or not it's time to forgive Ryan Braun? I'm a little lost. (ESPN's Gabe Goodwin) (via Twitter)
