[情報] Braun issues statement
http://brewersbeat.mlblogs.com/2013/08/22/braun-issues-statement/
Ryan Braun released this statement tonight:
Now that the initial MLB investigation is over, I want to apologize for my
actions and provide a more specific account of what I did and why I deserved
to be suspended. I have no one to blame but myself. I know that over the last
year and a half I made some serious mistakes, both in the information I
failed to share during my arbitration hearing and the comments I made to the
press afterwards.
I have disappointed the people closest to me – the ones who fought for me
because they truly believed me all along. I kept the truth from everyone. For
a long time, I was in denial and convinced myself that I had not done
anything wrong.
It is important that people understand that I did not share details of what
happened with anyone until recently. My family, my teammates, the Brewers
organization, my friends, agents, and advisors had no knowledge of these
facts, and no one should be blamed but me. Those who put their necks out for
me have been embarrassed by my behavior. I don’t have the words to express
how sorry I am for that.
Here is what happened. During the latter part of the 2011 season, I was
dealing with a nagging injury and I turned to products for a short period of
time that I shouldn’t have used. The products were a cream and a lozenge
which I was told could help expedite my rehabilitation. It was a huge mistake
for which I am deeply ashamed and I compounded the situation by not admitting
my mistakes immediately.
I deeply regret many of the things I said at the press conference after the
arbitrator’s decision in February 2012. At that time, I still didn’t want
to believe that I had used a banned substance. I think a combination of
feeling self righteous and having a lot of unjustified anger led me to react
the way I did. I felt wronged and attacked, but looking back now, I was the
one who was wrong. I am beyond embarrassed that I said what I thought I
needed to say to defend my clouded vision of reality. I am just starting the
process of trying to understand why I responded the way I did, which I
continue to regret. There is no excuse for any of this.
For too long during this process, I convinced myself that I had not done
anything wrong. After my interview with MLB in late June of this year, I came
to the realization that it was time to come to grips with the truth. I was
never presented with baseball’s evidence against me, but I didn’t need to
be, because I knew what I had done. I realized the magnitude of my poor
decisions and finally focused on dealing with the realities of-and the
punishment for-my actions.
I requested a second meeting with Baseball to acknowledge my violation of the
drug policy and to engage in discussions about appropriate punishment for my
actions. By coming forward when I did and waiving my right to appeal any
sanctions that were going to be imposed, I knew I was making the correct
decision and taking the first step in the right direction. It was important
to me to begin my suspension immediately to minimize the burden on everyone I
had so negatively affected- my teammates, the entire Brewers organization,
the fans and all of MLB. There has been plenty of rumor and speculation about
my situation, and I am aware that my admission may result in additional
attacks and accusations from others.
I love the great game of baseball and I am very sorry for any damage done to
the game. I have privately expressed my apologies to Commissioner Selig and
Rob Manfred of MLB and to Michael Weiner and his staff at the Players’
Association. I’m very grateful for the support I’ve received from them. I
sincerely apologize to everybody involved in the arbitration process,
including the collector, Dino Laurenzi, Jr. I feel terrible that I put my
teammates in a position where they were asked some very difficult and
uncomfortable questions. One of my primary goals is to make amends with them.
I understand it’s a blessing and a tremendous honor to play this game at the
Major League level. I also understand the intensity of the disappointment
from teammates, fans, and other players. When it comes to both my actions and
my words, I made some very serious mistakes and I can only ask for the
forgiveness of everyone I let down. I will never make the same errors again
and I intend to share the lessons I learned with others so they don’t repeat
my mistakes. Moving forward, I want to be part of the solution and no longer
part of the problem.
I support baseball’s Joint Drug Treatment and Prevention Program and the
importance of cleaning up the game. What I did goes against everything I have
always valued- achieving through hard work and dedication, and being honest
both on and off the field. I also understand that I will now have to work
very, very hard to begin to earn back people’s trust and support. I am
dedicated to making amends and to earning back the trust of my teammates, the
fans, the entire Brewers’ organization, my sponsors, advisors and from MLB.
I am hopeful that I can earn back the trust from those who I have
disappointed and those who are willing to give me the opportunity. I am
deeply sorry for my actions, and I apologize to everyone who has been
adversely affected by them.
