Ryan Braun was one of my favorite athletes of my lifetime. Braun entered my life right when I started college. In my opinion, that is an optimal time for a sports star to enter into your life. It is either that or when you are around six or seven. Brett Favre was that dude for the latter. I was a fan of Braun from the start. I stuck with Braun through the HGH scandal that bothers so many fans that aren’t Brewers’ fans. I still remember coming to Mitch’s house on Maryland and ranting about what an injustice this was for the league. I stuck with him after as Braun worked on finding himself again. I’ll never forget what he did for the Brewers.

You know we’re going to bring some Braun moments to this thing. How about a 17-minute compilation of the best of Ryan Braun sound to you?

Milwaukee Brewers will have Braun at the final home game of the season on Sunday, September 26. There will be many other moments with Braun in 2022. I fully expect the Brewers to retire his number and maybe down the road look into a statue. The Brewers are where they are today because of Braun.
