Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers went so far as to "bet" his 2013 salary, - that would be $39.5 million, yes $39.5 million - on Twitter that his buddy Ryan Braun was clean and drug-free.

Now that the Milwaukee Brewer slugger has been exposed as steroid cheat and suspended for the rest of the season, perhaps Rodgers has been suspiciously quiet on the whole matter.

Todd Sutton (@toddsutton) asked Rodgers: " @AaronRodgers12 you really believe he didn't you PED's???? #delusional"

Rodgers responded: @toddsutton ya I'd put my salary next year on it. #ponyup #exonerated

Good news Aaron, @toddsutton takes cash or check.
