Sutton Says: Braun The Bachelor? Brewers Leftfielder Turns Down ABC’s Offer

I asked Braun if he would like to be either on ABC’s “Dancing With the Stars,” or our network’s other big hit “The Bachelor.” And he told me that “The Bachelor” actually called him to be on the show. Braun the Bachelor. Has a nice ring to it, but unfortunately, he said thanks, but no thanks—much to the dismay of female fans in Milwaukee and around the country.

Now, had Braun accepted the invite, he wouldn’t have been the first professional athlete to be on the show. Former Giants quarterback, and current ESPN announcer, Jesse Palmer was “The Bachelor” a few seasons ago. Palmer picked a lady, but didn’t propose to her and a few weeks later they broke up.

One of the following is real as of 8:03 PM on June 10th, 2009:
Jose Canseco will announce he is breaking up with his girlfriend and that he’d love to take the spot Braun was offered. Oh, and Curt Schilling would like to say he’d love to be on Dancing with the Stars, but there are just too many damn Hollywood Liberals. And Jeff Kent will be on Superstars alongside the Doritos Girl. And Barry Bonds… well…
