Travis Henry. Marijuana. Suspension? (1 Viewer)

[chedha]

The only question is will he get the heavy workload he's been getting or will Young get a few carries to keep Henry fresh?

Yup.. That's the way it's been all year..

 

[Niaboc]

im not to sure about the medical and blood work to find pot in your system.. if you sit in a car and it gets hotboxed will you have it in your system from second hand smoke? if so can he use that for an excuse cause they cant prove it .. kinda like getting cancer from second hand smoke you dont need to smoke to get it in your system

 

[benm3218]

Based on what was said in Denver today I'd say there's 0% chance Henry is suspended by the Broncos for this game. Denver needs this game bad so there's no way they sit their best RB. It looks like there's about a 99.9% chance now that Henry starts. The only question is will he get the heavy workload he's been getting or will Young get a few carries to keep Henry fresh?

I would think they give young more carries to test him further and get him used to heavier workload moreso than to keep Henry fresh (a guy they know is gone at some point).

 

[thayman]

Clayton was talking on ESPN and said it could take up to a month for all the appeals and such to be taken care of.

Well then, having Young for the end game is all that matters.

It could be a good time to target a Henry owner if you need to make a push to make the playoffs, or win a few games in your league.

Or they could give Henry the lions share knowing that they have to use him while they can. As you implied, keeping him healthy isnt necessarily a priority if he's going to be on suspension anyway.Who knows!

 

[Gopher State]

Interesting to see how long the appeal process takes 4 weeks like ESPN is saying or maybe longer. Young maynot see as much action as some think

I wouldnt rule out a suspension from the Broncos or NFL even...Personally, I look at it like this... Henry will eventually be suspended for 1 year. I dont think the Broncos will keep him around. So we will say week 10 as a guess when the 1 year suspension kicks in. What team would really be willing to give him a contract next year if they cant play him until week 11? At the same time assuming the risk he can stay clean for a full 2 years, which as we have seen so far he cant. I would think he would be in a better position Career wise to start the suspension ASAP and let his agent sell him to another team next year with the prospect of only missing the first 4 games.Just my opinion...im sure the risk/reward is worth it to him.I just dont see many teams wanting a 30 year old RB with Drug/injury issues who will miss over half the 08 season...

Hopefully they can hold em off till the end of the football year

For 4 of my dynasty teams, he will see action when it counts, the playoffs

I doubt that. Probably 4 or 5 weeks MAX. It should pass through the legal system by then.

im not to sure about the medical and blood work to find pot in your system.. if you sit in a car and it gets hotboxed will you have it in your system from second hand smoke? if so can he use that for an excuse cause they cant prove it .. kinda like getting cancer from second hand smoke you dont need to smoke to get it in your system

There is nothing "they" have to prove except it was in his system. It usually stays in the system 30 days. It's cut and dry, with no grey area.

 

[Max Power]

Lets look at this angle... What if Henry does get injuried (season/career ender) before he gets suspended. Would the Broncos then be able to get part of his bonus back?

I know its proably a risk the Broncos are willing to take, Im just curious if thats how it works or not.

It might not be right, but he has over 20 million reasons why he should remove himself from the situation.

[packersfan]

Yup.. That's the way it's been all year..

Not really. Young had seven combined carries in the first three games. It wasn't until last week - when Henry got hurt - that Young finally got a decent number of rushing attempts (8). So I think there's still a question of whether Henry will continue to get all of the carries or will Shanahan give some to Young this week.

I wouldnt rule out a suspension from the Broncos or NFL even...

I don't think the NFL will be able to act quickly enough to suspend him for this week's game. And Shanahan's comment about letting the due process take its course strongly leads me to think he has no intention of suspending him. Just my speculation. I think Henry starts and gets his usual 95% of the carries this week. As a Young owner I hope I'm wrong but I think Shanahan needs this game so bad he won't leave anything to chance.

My guess is there isn't a way to tell if it's second hand smoke, because even if it is second hand smoke and gets in the hair folicles, that still goes into the blood stream the same way as if you smoked it. Most iimportantly he has to breath, so it gets into the blood system that way as well. Even in small traces, who's to say they didn't take just one toke?

They would owe him his salary, but it would probably be a worker's comp issue. Yes, NFL players get worker's comp.

The point is, they don't have to prove how it got into his system. They only have to prove it's in his system, and like I siad, my guess is there is no way to tell if someone has smoked weed, or if it's from second hand smoke. Case closed, he's guilty.

Perhaps since he is on his last strike he would show a bit more caution and common sense into whose house he is walking into, and making sure he is not associating himself with anyone that could comprimise is playing career.

I always find interactions with Capella to be quite enjoyable. He's an asset to this community and this forum in particular. Then again, I don't own Selvin Young in any leagues, so that might have something to do with it. I did drop him in one league to pick up a WR after Andre Johnson went down. I'm feeling some regret over that decision. Where was I?

No Big Score, he's right, but he's also wrong. I did mention more than once that I owned Young, but I also gave my opinions on Henry's current situation and Young's value later this year, so he's wrong to insinuate that all I mentioned was that I owned Young.

Im not sure what type of test they administer but its not a Yes/NO type of test. They have a baseline, if you are over that baseline then the test is positive and if you are under the baseline then the test is negative. For example, for the PSA test (tests for prostate cancer) if a person is over the value of 2.5ng/ml then the are sent to have a biopsy. Im sure the "Weed Test" works in a similar way. If they administer the urine test and THC is elevated past a specific value then they consider it a positive for smoking the green. You can not test positive by being in the room when someone is smoking.ETA: 30 days is not right for everyone. The half-life of THC will be different depending on the individual and their own metabalism. This number is just the average. More than likely it would leave Henry's system faster than 30 days.

[Loan Sharks]

FWIW

Parcells was speaking on ESPN radio and he thinks that Shanahan will probably use Sapp as the main running back ala Mike Anderson and perhaps move one of their 4 tight ends to fullback. He also said that he would expect Bell to contribute, it was a discussion between Mort and Parcells and neither one mentioned Young.

There is nothing "they" have to prove except it was in his system. It usually stays in the system 30 days. It's cut and dry, with no grey area.

so if some is smoking pot travis has to leave? thats not right

I would assume there's a way to know whether or not it's second hand smoke based on the test result.

My guess is there isn't a way to tell if it's second hand smoke, because even if it is second hand smoke and gets in the hair folicles, that still goes into the blood stream the same way as if you smoked it. Even in small traces, who's to say they didn't take just one toke?

thats what i mean how can they prove it.. if he walks in a house and someone lights one up and its gets in his blood stream that guy just cost him millions? common something isnt right here

The point is, they don't have to prove how it got into his system. They only have to prove it's in his system, and like I siad, my guess is there is no way to tell if someone has smoked weed, or if it's from second hand smoke. Case closed, he's guilty.

Used to work at a large clinical testing lab which also did a lot of occupational testing. Tens or hundreds of thousands of these tests are done a year on prospective and current employees of just about every major company in the country. I don't know much about the science involved in the actual test, but I'm SURE that the test had stood up to legal challenge many times over.'I didn't inhale' isn't going to fly.

FWIW Parcells was speaking on ESPN radio and he thinks that Shanahan will probably use Sapp as the main running back ala Mike Anderson and perhaps move one of their 4 tight ends to fullback. He also said that he would expect Bell to contribute, it was a discussion between Mort and Parcells and neither one mentioned Young.

Parcell's knows as much as we do about what Shanahan will do.

While I am not going to say he knows what Shanahan will do, but I think he does know more than many message board posters who own Selvin Young in 16 leagues. Anyway I thought I would throw that out there, I thought it was interesting that a pretty good NFL coach would think Sapp ran pretty well and that the Broncos had extra tight ends.

NFL Network report:

Simply put, 3-4 weeks before the NFL could suspend Henry.

That is is IF the courts do not not overturn and void the NFL ability to rule at all.

Henry in for 3-4 weeks as long as healthy.

If that were the case, then why wasn't Sapp the main RB when Henry got hurt? Did Parcells watch Young run for 81 yds on 10 carries? Did he also watch Young rip a 40 yd run against the Bills? Hey, I have Sap.....oops, I'm not supposed to say that...., but if anyone with eyes have been watching, it is clear that Young looks pretty good.

I wouldn't put much stock in what parcells is saying. It's just speculation.. They needed him to comment on the situation for the show, and that's what he came up with... Wanted to go against the grain for whatever reason

This is very disturbing!! Parcells was so great at the Cowboys. He really seems to know how to handle his runningbacks. Oh no!

There is a huge difference between a running back getting hurt and a running back being out for the season. When a running back gets hurt, you go with the guy who knows the plays and has been running with the second team. WHen you know a guy is going to be out for the season you might move someone else into that spot. WHen the #1 gets hurt teams will often replace him during the game with the 3rd down back. Then, when the guy is out for the season another back will be put in place and the 3rd down back stays the 3rd down back.

Why isn't Sapp listed as the main back up? If Parcells is right then it may have been a case of Shanny wanting to get his two best backs on the field at the same time. Also there is that pesky Mike Anderson precedence that shows shanny has done this before. Also Young may have some other issues like pass protection or endurance that the staff may not want to grind him now and keep a similiar work distribution wil Young pitching relief. The fact that Young is listed as the backup right now really doesn't mean anything as it looks like the Broncos will have a few weeks to get their game plan together. It could be any of the guys on the roster, I was just posting that Parcells thought the Broncos had a TE that could fill the Fullback role so it may give Sapp the opp to move to tailback if needed if that is the way the Broncos want to go.

THERE IS NOTHING MORE HORRIBLE THAN HAVING SOMEONE SUGGEST THAT MY PLAYER IS NOT "THE" MAIN GUY!!!!

Ahhhhh!!! Loud Noises!!!

Sorry, but I disagree. Teams don't just go to another back other than their backup when the #1 gets hurt. I'm not saying that would happen 100% of the time, but there's a reason why someone is considered a backup. No one considers Young a 3rd down back by the way.
