<div>No. Your wife is a GREAT writer. Now, what would it cost to get her to freelance the story?<br>

In all seriousness, a friend of mine from Milwaukee told me 2 weeks ago he heard a story about how Braun had herpes and was taking some sort of medication for that which had a steroid in it. Given the secrecy surrounding the situation, I would not be surprised if that's true.<br>

<div>However, when I saw the re line on your e-mail, I thought you would be asking about Ryan Braun beating the MLB on his positive. Now there's an interesting story. I haven't seen any quality reporting on it yet, though, so I don't know what to think. If I could put Karen on it for about 24 hours, I'd know the real deal on that one.</div>
