Aaron Rodgers was so sure his buddy on the Milwaukee BrewersRyan 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 Packersquarterback'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 oncebacked 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.

You know about contracts made on Twitter-they aren't worth the paper they're printed on.

 

Especially since this wasn't a contract.  Also I don't know that a personal bet is going to hold up in court anyway.  Especially when only one party was putting anything on the table.  What was Todd Sutton putting up if he instead lost the "bet"? 

 

And Twitter contracts aren't printed on paper in the first place.
