for weed.

He's going to appeal, but if he gets hit with the suspension it'd be for a year since he violated in 2005.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) - Denver Broncos running back Travis Henry, the league's leading rusher, is trying to prevent the NFL from suspending him over the results of a drug test, Newsday reported Thursday.
Henry was granted a temporary restraining order in Suffolk County (N.Y.) Supreme Court to prevent the league from using a urine specimen against him and to prevent the league from disclosing the test results, but an appellate court vacated the order, according to court papers filed in Brooklyn federal court.
The report on the newspaper's website said Henry claims the league violated its substance abuse policy by not allowing his experts to be present for testing of his urine sample, according to court papers.
The league wants the matter transferred to federal court because it involves interpretation of the NFL's collective bargaining agreement, generally covered by federal labour laws.
Pending an appeal, Henry would be subject to a year-long suspension if he tested positive again. While in Tennessee, Henry was suspended four games in September 2005 by the NFL for violating the league's substance abuse policy.

He signed a US$22.5-million, five-year free-agent contract with the Broncos that included $12 million in guarantees this off-season after the Titans released him in a cost-cutting move and the Broncos sent last year's starter, Tatum Bell, to Detroit.
The Broncos declined comment Thursday.
``Have to refer you to the League, we have no comment,'' general manager Ted Sundquist told The Associated Press in response to an e-mail inquiry about a Denver TV report that Henry had tested positive for marijuana.
A league spokesman said the NFL had no comment.
Henry, who injured his right knee and right ankle in a loss at Indianapolis on Sunday, has not practised this week nor has he been available to reporters. His agent, Hadley Engelhard, didn't return messages left by the AP, nor did Henry's lawyer, Robert Dapelo.
Henry, who started his career with the Buffalo Bills, is the centrepiece of Denver's revamped offence.
The Broncos had hoped he could be their first workhorse running back since Clinton Portis in 2003, and he got off to a fantastic start, rushing for 433 yards and one touchdown over the first month. He also caught five passes for 52 yards.
Henry's backup is undrafted rookie Selvin Young out of Texas, who has rushed 15 times for 138 yards and a league-best 9.2-yard average. The Broncos might move second-year pro Mike Bell back to tailback if Henry isn't available. Bell was moved to fullback last month.

Watch the run on Selvin Young now.

Already picked him up!

[tretcheenia]

Caffeine and nicotine tests can't be far behind.

24 hour alcohol level tests should be mandatory.

I don't like tests.

Watch the run on Selvin Young now.

which will be funny.

This is the Shanahan show.

See Mike Bell get the lion's share of carries now.

[D6Ri5u13]

It says a lot about a guy who can't stay clean and loses millions of dollars in doing so.

Here's the catch to the story.

Henry was suspended 4 games in 2005.

After 2 years of clean tests in the drug program, you're taken off of it.

Henry's date to be removed from the program? October 1st.

The date of his supposed test? September 20th.

Sounds like someone either never stopped, and just now got caught, or someone jumped the gun "celebrating" their ability to stay clean.

Your attempt to con me into dropping Young and getting Bell are futile!

Even worse yet.

Shanahan will declare some guy noone has heard of the starter.

Everyone will scramble to find said no name.

I've already made the move to pick up your Wynn scraps.

I just offered Moss to Bambino for Mike Bell and Chris Cooley...Heap is Q.

You should've made a play for Earnest Freakin' Graham.

I did...didn't have waiver priority. Figured trying to trade would cost me more than I was willing to give up, particularly with Pittman also sitting there, ready to take snaps.

[johnuioyer]

I'd throw in Meachem on that trade for Jackson, but he's who I'm cutting for Wynn.

Just wait for Ashwaubenon's Own and the Frenchie to start getting snaps with the Saints.


Ain't no way Bush survives as the every down back in that offense.

Until the Saints offense does something worthwhile...I won't be starting a one, or picking one up.

I've got Colston and Bush on other teams and I fret each week I have to start them. Last week was a relief.

Now you understand how I feel with Brees.

And why I have absolutely no problem keeping LT and AP over him, despite AP's imminent career ending injury that we as Packer fans are actively wishing for.

[VtLe67WR]

Now you are going to far.

Moorman is my MVP.

I need a bye week option for Dan "The Human Punting Missile" Sepulveda.

I was going to pick up Kluwe, but your BIL stole him away from me (I think that was him -just looked, it wasn't-...and I think he's your BIL).

And then he stole my points trophy this week.

It's on.
