Travis Henry did the inevitable on Wednesday afternoon, he won a court case over the National Football League.
Henry was accused of breaking the NFL's substance abuse policy by failing a marijuana test in September. Henry sued the NFL to avoid suspension.
Henry's rebuttal: "It was second hand smoke."
What a joke right? Well he threw a fastball by Commissioner Roger Goodell and it worked.
There has got to be more this. Players just don't win against the NFL. It is very rare.
I got a little advice for Henry now that this is passed him: Stay off the hippy lettuce and start producing.
Bronco fans are impatient and spoiled. Shanahan can go out on the street and find some bum to run for over 1,000 yards in a season so get it together Travis.

BCS on "Hot Seat"
Let the arguments begin.
Did the Bowl Championship Series set up the best two teams in college football to play for the National Championship in New Orleans?
I have followed the BCS since it was established in 1999 and they have done a good job some years and other years they have failed.
This year they got it right.
They selected the Big Ten Champions, Ohio State University and the Southeastern Conference Champions, Louisiana State University. The two teams will face off on January 7th to be crowned champion.
Some people will argue that Ohio State doesn't deserved to be there because they played a week non-conference schedule and the Big Ten was down this season. But folks, this is still the Big Ten and Ohio State only lost one game to Illinois and they are headed to Pasadena to take on Pac-10 Champion Southern California in the Rose Bowl.
And as for LSU, well they play in the SEC and that is hands down the toughest conference in the nation no matter what USC and the Pac-10 think. Obviously the BCS agrees because USC won the Pac-10 and where is USC going again?
Outside the national championship game, who knows what the BCS was doing in selecting their other four games.
How does Kansas get in a BCS game over Missouri? The same Missouri that beat them eight days ago and represented the Big-12 North in the Big-12 title game.
Hawaii met all the requirements they had to in order to reach a BCS game and got in but are they a top 12 team in the nation? I guess we will find out when they play a hot, if not the hottest team in college football in the Georgia Bulldogs at the Orange Bowl.
Obviously all the teams in BCS games are beatable because all of these teams have at least one loss this season.
Tournament anyone?
