Grits and Shins Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 According to ESPN.com insider John Clayton, Travis Henry presented his case to the league in Phoenix today in his ongoing effort to appeal a one-year drug suspension Friday. Henry is using a "second-hand smoke defense." According to Clayton, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell should announce a decision next Tuesday or Wednesday. Meanwhile, Henry is fighting an uphill battle to play Monday night against the Titans. Henry left the team facility with an ice bag on his knee. After missing two days of practice, he doesn't appear to be ready to return to the starting lineup. Although he'll benefit from an extra day of treatment, Henry, who has a partial tear of the posterior cruciate ligament, seems like a longshot to play. Selvin Young will be asked to pick up the slack. That is the stupidest thing I ever heard. Let me bottom line it for you Travis ... the NFL does not care if you put the joint to your lips and inhaled or if you sat next to a guy smoking a joint and inhaled his second hand smoke. The NFL has a rule that prohibits use of drugs and they enforce that rule with random testing. If you inhaled enough 2nd hand smoke to fail the test then you were an idiot. Get ready to be suspended.

i_am_the_swammi Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 As a Selvin Young owner, if Clayton's report is accurate, then No way on earth they don't suspend him if his defense is "it was second-hand smoke"....er, Travis, aren't you smart enough to know you've already been suspended once, you are on probation, and you really shouldn't be hanging around degenerates who are using illegal drugs to which you could potentially test positive just by being in the same room? See you next November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billay Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Oh good ... another Travis Henry thread ... we haven't had near enough of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 (edited) Billay ... I almost finished with that statement This thread does, however, offer a little information instead of asking AGAIN if and when everybody thinks Henry will be suspended Edited November 16, 2007 by Grits and Shins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qball86 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 (edited) Why does you starting this post make me want to introduce the pot(no pun intended) to the kettle so much...I believe it goes something like this... Oh good ... another Travis Henry thread ... we haven't had near enough of these. Edited November 16, 2007 by Qball86 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishPride Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 You are certainly entitled to your opinion. If thats the case? Then how come i'm still on your ignore list? It was only my opinion that made you mad? Is there any forgiveness in this world? I never said anything that was offensive If I knew calling you a dick was no big deal I would have done that instead ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikesVikes Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 If he isn't smart enough to avoid having 9 kids with 9 different women are you really surprised? Funny how you can't have a Travis discussion without talking about kids. How many kids blowing smoke would it take to give you a bad test? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethnics Posted November 17, 2007 Share Posted November 17, 2007 Who cares if Henry gets suspended? The guy has a torn knee ligament! He's just about done regardless. I vote to delete all future Travis Henry threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
