Travis Henry gets 3 years in prison for financing a multi-state drug ring. He also got 5 years probation and 500 hours of rehab. Apparently with the rehab completed adn with good behavior he might be able to get out of jail in as little as 16 months.

Nevertheless, at 30 years old, Travis Henry might as well start filling out the NFL retirement papers now and get that pension going. He’s not gonna be back in the league ever again. Someone’s gotta think of the kids!

Everyone’s favorite coke trafficking, baby-daddy has finally had his day in court. Travis Henry plead guilty on Thursday to one count of conspiracy to possess cocaine with intent to distribute. Henry said at trial:

“I was involved in an agreement with other people to possess and distribute at least five kilograms of cocaine.”

If it weren’t official before, it is now, Travis Henry is not a good person. He’s had a few chances already in the NFL, if he gets any considerable jail time the 30 year old running back can pretty much kiss his playing days goodbye. Even without jail time, its got to be unlikely that anyone would want to give this guy another chance just because of his age and injury issues alone, not even mentioning that he’s a convicted felon.

The real loser in this though, the kids. Somebody think of the kids!

Everyone loves to whine about how hard single mothers have it. When are people going to cut single fathers a break? Fathers like Jason Caffey deserve some props and not just cause their boys can swim … or tidal wave. Travis Henry is out there trying making moves to take care of his nine shorties by nine different women but every time a brotha tries to bring himself up, the man’s gotta knock him back down. 

We don’t mean to light Andre Rison’s ass on fire but Travis Henry should be glad that Lisa “Left Eye” Lopez isn’t around. She’d have him in her “No Scrubs” sights after hearing his story about being broke cause he’s got nine children by nine different baby mamas.

Talk about baby mama drama. Henry’s child support issues are overtaking his indictment on cocaine trafficking charges. Mike Tierney of the The New York Times refers to Henry’s baby-making skills as “prolific” and indeed they are.

Attending the annual N.F.L. rookie symposium as a 2001 draft pick of the Buffalo Bills, Henry watched a skit that dramatized the repercussions of imprudent sexual activity. It might as well have been geared toward him.

Henry laughed through the sketch. “I thought, ‘That ain’t ever going to happen to me,’ ” he said.

Henry blames his lack of a father figure as well as the gold digger tendencies of the mothers for his situation. He insists that he loves his children but can’t afford to take care of them due to his current situation. He’s looking at 10 to life for the drug case and claims he can’t keep up with the child support payments. Unfortunately for him, the law doesn’t agree. Even Shawn Kemp is breathing a sigh of relief that he’s not in Henry’s situation.

In case you’ve been wondering why acquitted weed lover and Shawn Kemp protege Travis Henry hasn’t hooked up with any of the NFL teams in sore need of a proven 1200-yard ball carrier (we’re looking at you, Houston), the answer isn’t that he’s been blackballed by the league (although in all seriousness, the Deuce is pretty sure that is the real reason), or that he’s taken a roadie position on the Cheech and Chong reunion tour, or even that he’s hanging around the Pepsi Center on a PUMA safari. No — Travis is unavailable because he’s fighting America’s greatest enemies, in the heart of Colorado:

It started innocently enough: Qatar-based al-Jazeera decided it would film the locals in Golden, the home of Coors beer, as they watched the convention from a biker bar Wednesday night. This would allow al-Jazeera’s viewers to see Bill Clinton and Joe Biden through the eyes of those in a small American town that could pass as a set for a Hollywood Western.

City leaders at first offered to host a pork-free barbecue for the Jazeera crew, then abandoned that plan when angry residents protested. But the Buffalo Rose, a 150-year-old saloon here catering to bikers, offered to let al-Jazeera broadcast from its bar.

The result: a sort of 21st-century shootout at the O.K. Corral on Wednesday night under the shadow of Lookout Mountain, where Buffalo Bill is buried.

Word spread that three rival biker gangs — the Sons of Silence, the Banditos and the Hell’s Angels — declared a truce for the night so they could meet at the Buffalo Rose in a united protest against al-Jazeera. But the network stood its ground and set up its cameras.

Across the street from the bar, two dozen protesters under the watchful eye of a statue of Adolph Coors waved American flags, blew air horns and revved motorcycle engines. “Al Jazeera is terrorism,” announced one sign. “Go home, Al Jazeera — Voices for al Qaeda and bin Laden,” proclaimed another. The protesters had shirts printed up for the occasion, saying “Buffalo Rose/Tokyo Rose” in English and Arabic, although they botched the Arabic translation. One biker covered his T-shirt in thoughtful, handwritten messages, such as “Islam Sucks” and “Al-Jazeera: Anti-American Pond Scum.” . . .

The regulars at Buffalo Rose took the Qatari invasion, and the demonstration, in stride. “Al-Jazeera? Is he here? Where is he?” inquired Travis Henry, sipping a Bud Light.

There you have it. Travis Henry, freed from the petty iron grip of Roger Goodell and Pat Bowlen, has joined a biker resistance group dedicated to saving America — or at least the glorious state of Colorado, which Travis has so embraced — from the scourge of Islamofascism. Even the most rabid NFL fan would agree that his cause is far nobler than three yards and a cloud of dust.

We have to believe this is he case, as there obviously could only be one dude in Colorado named Travis Henry. At least only one who thinks that Al Jazeera is some guy, and not a TV network. That’s gotta be Our Travis. Semper fi, brother.
